Why is copy trading so difficult to make a profit? Take a real case to tell the story.
The first picture is that - 7 days, the account is green. If you are a newbie who has just entered the circle and see a loss for a week, 80% will retire directly. Who can stand to lose money every day?
Let's look at the second one. 30 days have passed, and it is still underwater. At this time, you may have heard the truth of "making money in the long run" and want to stick to it. But I have been losing money for a month, and I can't bear the principal, so I liquidated and left.
The most heart-wrenching is the third one: it is stretched to a whole year, the income curve is very beautiful, and the annualized return hangs the market. But the question is - how many people can really follow for 365 days?
Most retail investors died before dawn. The early fluctuations are scared away, and the later outbreak has nothing to do with you. Copying is not a technical job, but a patient job. If you can't survive the first three months of the drawdown period, don't expect to eat the meat behind.
So, don't always stare at other people's annual records. You have to ask yourself first: When you lose 20%, do you leave or stay?

Really amazing, the first three months have already discouraged a large group. Without proper psychological preparation, I couldn't sustain that beautiful curve.

It's really cruel, but it's heart-wrenching. I died at the 30-day level, and I am still in remorse.

Really, to put it bluntly, it's a matter of mentality. Anyone can hold when the account is green, and if they lose money, they will run away for various reasons. I myself have seen too many people surrender in the first month
