Depends on who you are copying. If you are copying some amateur, you will lose your money more quickly than if you would simply risk trading by yourself. If you were to follow a famous trader who knows what he is doing, you might find yourself profiting quite nicely.  But personally, I would not trust anyone else with my trading. If you do not do your own research and do not follow your own strategies, then you are merely gambling your money by leaving it in the hands of someone else.

Learn trading first, learn how to do your research, make your own strategies. Don't be lazy. Especially when it comes to your finances.
