Have you ever heard about copy trading — that magic button promising you can earn profits just by following someone else’s trades?
I’d heard it a hundred times, but I was skeptical. Still, I decided to test it myself — because if it really worked, it would mean there’s a shortcut to success in trading, right?

My Real Experience in the Crypto Copy Trading World

At first, I started small — just a test with a tiny amount of money.
After one week, I couldn’t believe what I saw: +60% profit.
That’s the kind of return some professional traders don’t make in an entire year.

So I added more capital. And again — more profit.
It was so consistent that for a short moment, I started thinking:

“Maybe I don’t need to trade manually anymore… maybe this is it.”

Until one random day, everything changed.
Within hours, 60% of the total capital vanished.
Not only the profits — but the entire account took a massive hit.

Why Copy Trading Fails (Even When It Works for a While)

After this happened, I started studying how professional traders approached this topic — including Ross Cameron’s own test of multiple copy-trade alert services.
The conclusion was almost identical to my experience.

1. You’re Always Late
By the time you receive the alert or your account copies the trade, the entry price has already changed. If the trade goes up, your profit is smaller. If it goes down, your loss is bigger. Latency kills consistency.

2. You Have No Control
You can’t decide the risk per trade, the stop-loss, or the position size. Someone else does — and that means you’re exposed to risks you didn’t choose.

3. Liquidity and Spread Issues
In crypto, when someone opens a large position on a low-cap coin with thin order books, the copy trades that follow open at much worse prices — higher if it’s a buy, lower if it’s a sell. In other words, their exit point becomes your entry point.

4. False Confidence and Dependence
Even if the system makes money for a while, it teaches you nothing. You’re not becoming a better trader — you’re just outsourcing your decisions. And when it stops working, you have no skills to fall back on.

5. High-Risk Behavior of “Top” Traders
Many of the accounts behind copy systems take massive risks and show extremely poor Sharpe ratios. They might look profitable short-term, but their equity curves often end the same way — a crash.

Lessons Learned

Copy trading gives you the illusion of control — the dream that someone else can do the hard work for you.
But the truth is, you’re not participating in trading — you’re observing someone else’s gamble.

The only sustainable way forward is independence:

That’s how you trade with confidence — not by copying trades, but by owning your decisions.
