This is what I'm going to say, and I tend to agree with your perspective.
Trading isn't for everyone, while some may be fortunate enough to profit from that exchange, many unfortunate users experience losses.  So, it’s not for everyone.

It's hard to rely upon a group that you don't know well, this group may leave you behind in the excitement, making you their prey.

Copy trading may provide convenience, but it often detaches you from the essential learning process, which has no shortcuts, and from the market sentiment that shapes successful traders.  Developing your own strategy allows you to adapt to market conditions, which is a wise choice rather than depending on others.
