Fact of the matter is 0 has the same odds of appearing as any number on the table.
By poker tables in casinos I mean the one where the dealer also has a hand. But still poker relies on luck of the draw THEN it tries to compensate it by psychology.
Blackjack is not 50:50 game, since YOU move first, yes you do not have to take a card but because you move first the house gets the edge. You get most tables in the casino with machene shuffle do what every you want, card count with autism-genius level perfection over long term you WILL lose, same with ALL of the gambling games over long term you WILL lose. As for manual shuffle tables, you can card count and get the edge but that is banned and you still rely on luck of draw.
All gambling games are about luck of draw.
Trading has absolutely nothing to do with random chance, as I said all market movements are a consequence of something, markets simply try to find equilibrium.
With perfect knowledge of the markets (no future knowledge) but if you have absolute knowledge of markets, economies and psychology you will win 100% of the time.
If you apply that to gambling you will still lose in the long run.
As for 95% traders lose, first of all that number is a word of mouth, second of all you don’t just put a random person to perform a hear surgery and gamble that he will be able to do it, right? You teach him how to perform the operation then you let him do it.
Same with forex, how many people out there know what they’re doing? not many. How many people on this forum have a degree in finance and economics, how many worked in the industry? When you do not understand the markets, why and how they move then you are not trading.
Skilled gamblers…in poker maybe and I already explained to you why. Look I gamble all the time too, come in for manual blackjack double my money and walk away that’s short term.
To sum it all up, it’s very simple really forex movement does not depend of random chance, while gambling does and only then tries to compensate for it be it through psychology or “gambling systems” which trust me on that one utter bs. And just because you met that single person in the entire world that managed to be profitable in gambling after 20 years does not mean gambling is not gambling, in fact he fits the probability damn well.
