Is Forex really a gamble ?

[Ford]

In my personal view, i do not think that forex is gambling. This is because forex will involve training on how to trade and when to trade. Also there are many rules that govern forex unlike gambling where you only guess

In some extend Forex is gamble and depend on luck .But if we have best knowledge and lot of practice before starting live trading then there is less chance of loss.We should understand all techniques of trading and should trading with relax mind and according to situations.

Forex is itself not a gambling but a very specialized study requiring expert analysis but most of the traders trade it like gambling since they don't base their trading on knowledge but purely on probability of occurring.

forex is all about hard efforts and following the trading rules...a forex will be gamble if we start trading with less knowledge or less experience ..

forex will become gambling if the trader trade without make analysis and just guess for the trend and for it they only depend to luck factors, it is not good situation for the trader who want to make and build a good career at this business and because if they learn and study for some basics and then they can develop their system with very well then they will not depend their trading to luck factor and trade is like the gambler...
they can make good opportunities and trade with very well, so actually forex is a pure business, need knowledge for it

I have posted in another thread about risks and return.If you use the leverage above 4, it is a gamble, and i can say that the riskest gamble.Instead of that, you can use 1-4 leverage and it is a investment as well as stock market. Anyway, you should take the profits as higher the rate in your country.ok

forex trading is not gambling. This trade requires skill and discipline in managing our funds can make a trade for profit. very different from gambling, which only requires luck and a miracle to win. if we equate with gambling forex, we would be bankrupt in a trade.

me ap ke bat sy mutafiq hun k Forex gamble hi hy kyunki ismey honey waley profit ya loss ki surety nahin di jaa sakti. Ismey bahut kuch luck ke upar bhi depend karta hain. kai baar bahut achesy se market strategy samajhney ke baad bhi loss ho jaata hain aur kai baar bahut jyada profit bhi ho jaata hain.

Forex is much better for traders then gambling in gambling you have to rely purely on luck, while in forex trend is your friend and when the probability of prices moving in your predicted direction are much more than opposite you open trade and so have surely much probability of winning.

Traders who have no knowledge of the markets will focus on trade as nothing more than the bet. But let me tell you that the facts that Forex trading is the high order and only those dealers who have an eye on the markets and skills will be able to see this as a real business opportunity and a chance to earn a living.
