Of course it is a gambe, because you can win or you can lose. I am also interested in stocks. Investing in the oil companys would be a smart move.

Gamble,i don't know y? people use this word for stock market.let me tell u sth that these days due to oil price hike all real estate share are in big crash,no one can say wht would be their new 52 week low.So even if one invest ruthlessly herer that is a gamble for him.But if one invest in small chunks so that he can have option to average out,he is smart investor taking care of his money.for him its not a gamble So I am not telling that ur perception is wrong but i think people shud do some research work before doing some investment,this may decrease their loses.

Stock market is the very good place for the investments. As long as you treat this as a "Investment" this will give you the return. If you buy the script, and if you get the profit of 15% - 20% you will sell the script and enjoy the profit. Always when ever you come to market keep the target of long term like one year or so.. The people come to the market thought that, we can buy on the morning and sell in the evening and get the profit.. this will not get it work out for every day.. and every one.. Who ever doing the "Intra day" (buy/sell in the morning and sell/buy in the evening), will end up the Loss mostly.. because, they will fix their margin for the profit like 20% or 30%, but they will not fix the Loss percentage.. as long as the people use to do like this, they will end up with the loss only.. this situation is called the Stock market be the "Gambling" When ever you fix the profit margin means you suppose to fix your loss margin also (Stop loss).. How much you can able to suffer as loss.. Since the Stock market is high risky one.. always you have to think in both the sides.. In the long term investment, no problem, you can wait till your investment get it grow and get tht profit.. So, as for as intra day is concern those who put the stop loss order, will get succeed in the Stock market... else most of the people disappear from the market soon.

In stock market, when make a trade, there are many options: Buy, Sell, Short, Cover. The prices have many options too: Market, Limit, Stop. It's very competitive and difficult that you got to be very intelligent.
