We usually look at the profit first in copy trading, but I think how a trader makes that profit is also interesting.



When does the trader enter a trade? How much capital does he use? Where does he put the stop loss? How does he manage the position, and when does he decide to close it?

I think all these things matter when we want to understand a trader and his trading style.

I also enjoy studying other people’s stop-loss and position-adding strategies—it’s much more interesting than copy trading itself.

Entry timing and position management are the real skills. Many people rush in just because of the returns, only realizing it after they lose money.

Indeed, looking only at profits is too superficial; the process is what reveals one’s skill.

How do you set take-profit and stop-loss levels? How large is the position? These details reflect your risk management awareness; profit is merely the result.

In fact, many beginners only look at returns, while experienced traders keep an eye on his drawdown and position changes. This article is absolutely right.

Trading style really has to be observed from opening to closing a position; otherwise, copying trades is pointless.

I’ve seen plenty of extremely high returns, but watching the position play out is nerve-racking—I simply don’t dare follow. The process matters more.

That’s right. Traders who can consistently turn a profit always have their own discipline behind them. You simply can’t see that by looking at the numbers alone.
