I bet only those who doesn’t understand what real trading is all about finds it more confusing whether he’s a gambler or a trader. Otherwise, they won’t be good in both if even in gambling, they still find it hard to assess theirselves if they’re actually gamblers for real.
Trading creates reliable traders, while gambling creates risk takers gamblers. But either of these two, at least one should know how to be a good trader if you’re trading and how to be a profitable gambler if he’s into gambling.
Those that think gambling is the same with trading are doing that because of their limited knowledge about trading.
Trading has nothing to do with gambling but we still have traders who are chronic gamblers and all they do in the market is to trade based on their emotions with doing any analysis since their believe is trading is the same with gambling. Whether trading or gambling, you must be a risk taker and that alone had made many people think that trading is similar to gambling.
And due to their ignorance of this correct knowledge they can never achieve success in trading, trading and gambling are both completely different in their own aspects, gambling depends entirely on luck, no skill is required here, you will get the result according to what you have in your luck. But on the other hand trading is not luck but depends entirely on the skill of the trader, and here a trader achieves success through his skill, here nothing can be achieved depending on luck, rather it will only result in loss.
