Theres a 50 - 50 chance of getting profit in copy trading, as the people you copy might trade with a wrong direction thus might put your investment into liquidation. I would suggest to invest also in trading knowledge, enroll with a good and risk free trading course.
Yes, for me it's really better if you are going to learn the tip and trade of crypto trading, sort of working your ass out, and in the end, it's going to be worth it if you are going to be successful.
Instead of just using copy trading (I never tried and never well), there are risk involved. And if ever you failed then you have nothing to blame but yourself. Copy trading will just make you lazy to be honest and will just rely on others, not good if you wanted to be in this game for long.
