Also, I’ve seen etoro forex broker review some mixed stuff about how easy their platform and app are to use. Curious if anyone in this group has tried the etoro copy trading account services. I plan on medium term investing in stocks without leverage and possibly trying out copy trading.

The pros and cons of etoro /copy trading?

• Are there any annoying hidden costs or trouble when you try to take your money out?
• I guess thank god Nvidia went up by 400% or things would be worse.
• But what if let’s say 80% of those positions would be terrible buys on the day you would be starting your copy?
• They have recently gotten a round of funds, and have started to give shareholders the right to vote.
• He wants to copy a certain trader who he thinks has a good approach.

It’s not from stocks that went down in value but are still in your portfolio. So I let the copy do it’s thing, as many people in copytrading were advising to set it and forget it. At least that’s how it was advertised, I did quite a bit of research to see who are good choices to copy and so with optimism I started my copy! Is it straightforward or a bit of a hassle, especially for someone who’s not used to trading much?

And out of the 1004$ starting amount, 756$ were left, 668$ were invested and 87$ were uninvested funds. Are there any annoying hidden costs or trouble when you try to take your money out? Heard some stuff about it but really need some honest opinions. I’m kinda new to this online trading thing and came across eToro. Anyone can view, post, and comment to this community

Is Etoro a reliable and safe platform to hold stocks long term as of 2023?

This is not a bashing post, do what you will with that information. For reference if I had put everything on VOO on the same day I started my copy, today I would be up by 30%, instead of 20% down. I guess thank god Nvidia went up by 400% or things would be worse. To actually be worse than where I was when I started because of inflation. Which means that the remaining 756$ would have to go up by 33% starting today!

Skepticism and Due Diligence in Copy Trading

They have recently gotten a round of funds, and have started to give shareholders the right to vote. Create your account and connect with a world of communities. Should I steer clear and avoid depositing real money?

General Trading Principles Applicable to Social Trading

At the time I closed the copy, it had -260$ or -25% in losses from a total of 200 closed positions. The platform has worked well for me although sometimes a bit slow. I followed the “time in the market beats timing the market”, but I guess in copytrading it doesn’t apply. These are realised losses for those not very familiar with trading, it’s like buying a stock at 1000$ and selling it at 750$, that’s money gone forever.

And 3 years and two months later at a time where the market is at a high point, the copy had lost -19.49% of it’s total value. As I enter a phase where im more focused in stocks, is etoro good? But what if let’s say 80% of those positions would be terrible buys on the day you would be starting your copy? I guess a big reason for this, is that when you open a copy you automatically open all the positions the person you copy has.
