Trading forex has always been a law unto itself, and one where investing legends like Soros and Kovner made, and lost billions. But the forex market is somewhat divorced from movements in asset prices - despite developed economy stock markets being down more than 50% in some cases, the forex movements have been much less in one direction and remain volatile. I recall being told that www.oanda.com was another site making a fortune by providing a method to trade forex. Anyway, I very much appreciate eToro's efforts to promote a "gambling context approach" to helping investors frame their decisions. I'm trying to do the same thing with Texas Holdem Investing - because your hard earned savings are precious to let other people gamble with them!

Unfortunately the more puritanical in the investing community will permit no such comparisons. But I've seen lots of references to the casino on Wall Street in the last while. If people admitted that investing is more like gambling we could teach people how to invest more effectively - or at least how to minimise their mistakes and protect their downside.
