Our investment goal is capital growth for long-term, at the same time, we make some short-term trades to generate income constantly.

Any investor who can take moderate to high-risk and who wants capital growth in the long term and who wants to earn profit regularly for short-term at the same time.
Before You Copy Trade
Make sure you have completed your profile and answered the investor profile questionnaire. Afterwards, fund your account. Wait for eToro to verify your account. In my experience, it takes around one business day. Consider the time zone difference of US and EU market and office hours.

Important Copy Trading Tips:
I encourage my copiers to add funds regularly, if not monthly or quarterly or whenever NASDAQ100 or S&P500 are down. This is for Dollar-Cost-Averaging to work efficiently. Similarly, adding funds and investing regularly can help minimize risk.
Please be patient. Investing and trading won’t give you lots of money overnight. It needs time and discipline. Stay focused and do not panic when the market is down.

The minimum fund to copy my trades is $200. With this, you can already invest the stocks following my portfolio allocation. If your initial copy fund is $200, I recommend to setting Copy Open Trades and use the default Stop Loss.

Diversification is one of the most effective methods in investing. This will help us to distribute our money to different investments because investing only to one basket is dangerous. Another benefit of diversification is minimizing risk.
