  1. Trading is gambling if you don't have a winning system proven with statistics or if you do have such a good system but cannot discipline yourself to trade it correctly.
    A good and profitable method can proved disasterous in the hands of the undisciplined.

    Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!

  3. Statistics doesn't ensure fixed future parameters or results.

    If you need trading to be "not gambling", you are setting yourself up for disappointment in the long run.
