Copy Trading Is Not “Easy Money” — I Was Wrong.
At the beginning, I thought copy trading was simple:
“Find a trader with 200% ROI and press copy.”
That mindset almost cost me money.
Here’s what most beginners don’t understand:
1️⃣ Copy Amount Is NOT What You Risk
Allocating $500 doesn’t mean you risk $500 per trade.
If you don’t understand position sizing, you’re gambling — not investing.
2️⃣ Stop Loss Is YOUR Responsibility
The trader manages entries.
YOU manage your capital.
No risk control = guaranteed blow-up.
3️⃣ Minimum Per Trade Can Ruin Your Results
If your capital is too small, trades may not execute properly.
That means your performance won’t match theirs.
Most people lose in copy trading not because the trader is bad…
But because they don’t understand the settings.
Let that sink in.
What was your biggest mistake with copy trading?
Do you check drawdown or only ROI?
