Haven't nurturing this idea of trading a Bitcoin in the near future,but one question that's always come as a concern to me is. Is proper for me to trust a friend of that high magnitude ?
Trading is not an easy task to do, any time I see some traders trading for other investors and paying them interest, I usually cut cap for those traders because it is not easy. Before you can proceed to allow your friend trade for you, you are to note if they are actually an old experience traders. If your friend is just a normal non fully experienced trader, he may end up to lose your investment to Bitcoin volatility. Know who you are dealing with and their capabilities before you proceed.
Of course, his friend will ask for a percentage share if his trading is successful in making a profit, in other words the service (jockey) of someone playing it. Yes, paying attention to when he trades is much better, at least if we see directly how skilled or not he is at analyzing the market. It would be nice, apart from seeing him directly, we could also study before our eyes and gain knowledge from him before we entrust it to his friend. From there we gain a little knowledge and we continue to learn from various sources and combine what we have gained so far and then we try it. This method is much better than we entrusted to our friends.
I agree I think fully entrusting everything to a friend is the mistake here but if you really want to do it then the least you can do is at least try to learn. Maybe get your friend as a guide and use his expertise so you can learn and eventually do it all in your own without the help of anyone.
