im going to take a huge risk when eurusd hits 1.45
Why is he not gambling if he definitely takes a trade?
In any case, do you mean smokey bookmaker and beer gambling or professional gambling?
He's not gambling if he says "when it gets to 1.45", only if he says "if it gets there".
funny enough i immediately knew me saying 'when' over 'if' would be taken the wrong way
Why? Is it a guaranteed win? Define "gambling". It can mean two things.
Roulette, trading, horses, Poker, Blackjack, football, Lotto: which ones are definitely "gambling" and which are "professional gambling"? Which of them is it possible to earn a living from and which will you lose over the long run? And why?
I think people get confused between professional gambling and gambling.
Why? How, wrong?
You said "when" which means that there is certainty in your thinking, that it's, simply, a matter of time. Lots are "iffers".
That doesn't make the trade not a gamble.
