I think I can relate with the point you were trying to make with your thread, I guess you were trying to compare it due to the fact that they both have something in common which is, predicting, to be honest, forex trading is all about prediction which is what they do in gambling as well, since when I realized this, it has made me to lose interest in the business because there is no actual to tell if you are good at it or not, it is just like a game of dice which all depends on luck, I think that’s what the poster is driving at, if I’m correct.
