In this regard, I would like to how from each of you: what is your definition of a speculator?
One who speculates!

Actually, it's one who gambles or takes risk. You wouldn't be speculating if there was no downside risk involved for your future positive return on investment (ROI).

All traders are speculator, by definition, whether they choose to acknowledge the definition or otherwise.

Just my two ticks worth....
