    The way I explain it is it’s like a casino, where the market makers play and also take the rake/odds.

    Stock trading is like playing blackjack, it’s hard to win or lose money quickly. Options are like slot machines or roulette, you can win or lose very quickly. But at the end of the day the people who control the casino will come out ahead of you.
