FX Trading definitely looks like a betting field. In the recent forex news, it has been revealed that there were speculator's bets against the dollar which came up to $22 billion and this was supposed to be the largest bet which was done on the dollar since June 2008.

The betting for Euro is also going quite strong and the recent move was in favor of the Euro which incremented to at least seven times the past one week. However, traders are a bit uncertain about the current euro situation and they are not sure about the current euro situation keeping in mind that the dollar seems to be one-sided at the moment.

Well, I certainly agree with Sonu, and I took think that some people do consider Forex Trading as betting. But in my opinion it is not betting or gambling, instead it is a wise way to make money. Forex trading is not meant for anyone and everyone. Only people with great amount of knowledge and who are hooked on to business newspapers throughout, are able to succeed in it.

No. I don't think so cause to earn money from Forex trading we just had to gather huge knowledge even newspaper is must here so if anyone invests huge knowledge and experience here then how it can be betting. For me, I have been trading forex on FreshForex broker since 2012 and after that, I read all the financial and political news almost all the time.

Trading is not a game of chance. However, many traders treat it like gambling. They are unwilling to learn new skills. They mostly trade blindly. As a result, they are constantly losing money.
