Copy trading is like a playing in Casino, where someone else makes bets with your money. Trading bots are safety, but useless. You can make the same with your own hands. It seems that much smarter would be investing in liquidity pool, for example. Or even just holding your btc.
^In short, copy trading is beneficial for inexperienced traders who want to participate in the financial markets by replicating the trades of successful traders. It offers accessibility, a learning opportunity, and the ability to diversify portfolios. While trading bots provide automation, efficiency, and the ability to operate 24/7, making them suitable for those seeking a more hands-off approach. They can execute trades swiftly, backtest strategies, and operate even when you're not actively involved. The choice between copy trading and using a trading bot depends on our preferences and what level of trading knowledge we have.

I am not able to select either option. I have no prior interest or familiarity with bot or copy trading, although I have heard about both concepts. Drawing from my own experience, I would suggest focusing on expanding your knowledge instead of opting for copy trading or using bots. This is because both bots and copy trading have their limitations, as they require you to follow someone else's decisions and may not allow you to make real-time choices based on the current situation. If your goal is to generate a substantial income, it would be beneficial to invest your efforts in learning as much as possible.

Which is better to invest in copy trading or bot

Copy trading and bot-based trading can be tempting options, especially with a significant investment capital like what you have. But then, it's important to be very cautious especially if you're new to bitcoin. Both approaches involve risks and complexities that require expertise and experience to navigate successfully. If you're a new to bitcoin, I won't advice you take any of those options. As an alternative, consider starting with a solid foundation of understanding Bitcoin fundamentals, learning about market trends, and exploring long term investment strategies. Educate yourself so as to make confident decisions that will likely yield better results in the long run. While you do this, Hodl your 4k BTC please.
I doubt the OP will want to take that route as that would mean they will have to make a lot of effort to reach their goals, and it is obvious from their short post that is precisely what they want to avoid, in my opinion copy trading is not an option at all as I am not going to blindly follow the strategy of a stranger without knowing exactly why they are doing what the are going, now a bot could be an option but only for those which are expert traders and they are ready to automate their strategy.

Isn't copy trading and a bot almost the same thing? If you are going to copy trade, you are going to use a bot anyway.

But yeah, none of them is the best option to invest in. You should learn how to trade by yourself. Those copy trading can never guarantee you profit and one mistake, you end up losing everything. And I am not sure what you mean by investing in a bot. A bot with trading strategies? Still has no guarantee to give you profit and the bot might mess up leaving you with nothing. Also, don't trust third party bots. You never know what those bots can do. The next day you will see that you have nothing on your account and everything stolen.

None, both are the same because bots works base on the program it is designed to run on and these are usually from people’s opinions and it is risky.

The best alternative is to keep calm and learn the trading yourself which is less risky because you knew when to pull out and so on.

As for now without proper training trading knowledge I wound advice you just hold some bitcoin with the funds you have either by buying through the DCA method. And then you can continue to learn your trading skills
I never even attempted to use bots when I was day trading back then. Not really bashing those who use it or even do copy trades, since it's to each on their own ways anyway and it's their money that they're risking not ours.

Bots might be "somehow" helpful in helping the traders themselves decide still, but they shouldn't purely rely on them. See how many AIs out there tend to do only what they were programmed to do, yeah that's going to limit you if you're solely going to rely on it only.

This isn't to say that AI won't get better. Smiley

I mean, investing is safer than trading, I'm not saying investing is safe. Once called investment, business to make a profit, nothing is without risk. Even investing in stable assets like gold is risky, let alone bitcoin.

If you see historical price chart of Bitcoin then we can safely deduce that Bitcoin investment is very much safe. Bitcoin started its journey from zero and in decade time it reaches its ATH of 67k$. Bitcoin after a year or two make a good bull run that gives good ROI. So if you can HODL Bitcoin for year or two then there is fair chance that you will get good return.

Bitcoin is only considered safer than altcoin investments, but to say it is very safe to put our full trust in it is a mistake. Even gold, which is thousands of years old, has no guarantee of absolute safety, so a fledgling and volatile asset like bitcoin cannot be a safe asset. As I said above, once money is used to create money, there is always a risk, there is no asset that only brings profit without risk.

Even if they are not scams, they are not guaranteed ways of earning money through trading because even these people can make wrong trades and if you are following their trades, you will also lose money. So those who follow the trades of others or make trades based on signals provided by a group or an individual, need to understand that it is much better if they do some study, learn the ways to analyze the coins and the market, and do it themselves.

But unfortunately, people who are new to cryptocurrency trading don't believe in this and they think that the signals and advice from others will make them a lot of profits, though it sometimes works but that doesn't mean that these are viable means of making a profit constantly through trading.
Depending and relying on others has never been a sustainable way to make money. And you are right, newbies will never believe what we are saying, they will still come to those trading signals. Only when they experience losses with those signals, they really remember our advice.

you should not trust and depend on other people to trade, this is the worst mistake that a person should not make, just think about the following: if someone has a magic formula to make money with trade, then why would that person waste their time giving signals, courses or asking other people for money or selling your way of trading? it just doesn't make any sense, now think the same about bots, if a person is able to create a bot that generates profit in the trade market, then that person would be rich and would not sell his bot, even a poor country like mine country would buy this bot and get us out of poverty, can you see where I'm going? it is obvious that these bots are useless

you will just waste your time and money if you use these bots, do you want to profit in this cryptocurrency market? if yes, then do what everyone who makes big profits has done: buy and hold for many years until you get 2x or 3x profits, look for example to invest in savings, you leave your money in the bank for a year and not you can make 5% profit, but you buy bitcoin and do hodl for 1 year and you can make a profit above 2x, of course sometimes you have to wait more than 1 year, but it still becomes a much more profitable and safer investment
Trading's flaws frustrate me too. Isnt it like blindfolded minefield walking? Trading bots and self-proclaimed experts preying on the naive can make one long for simpler times without digital distractions.

Trading is art and science. Academic theories are limited. Emotions, instincts, and gut sentiments can tip the balances. Trading bots and miraculous strategies just systematise the unpredictable.

Philosophically, patience pays. "Hodling" coins for years through market turbulence has traditionally delivered large gains. However, there's more. Serious crypto investors must brace for downturns and long winters. Sustainable growth requires creativity and new investment opportunities.

This thread should be moved to the trading discussion board so as to help you get more good response to your question.
Personally I'm not a fan of trading bots because there are  more cases of losses than that of copy trading and I think copy trading has more advantage than bot as there are options to choose from best trader of our choice based on their records and history which I think not wouldn't give you that option.

Copy trading is good for beginners who are just in the stage of learning and finding ideas but this should not be a lifetime strategy as we need to stand and make our own in order to become successful.
Funny enough, I don't see any reason wanting to bother myself of stress my brain if I'm getting g the desired result I want from copy trading 🤔
I don't mind using this as a life time strategy as long as it gives me the result I so desire.

While using BOT in trading is just like we are copying ourselves into this technology and applying what we are doing. Having a good setup will work fine but if you are just a newbie, this will never works instead, this is the reason why you fail.

If we wanted to grow and improve our knowledge and skill, do everything in actuality and stop relying on others.

I can't say there is a definitive answer as to which is the better option. Both can be highly efficient if properly harnessed, only be sure to consider your risk tolerance, time and expertise. Copy trading may be better for beginners because bot trading is more accessible for experienced traders with programming skills; however most innovative bot trading now integrates AI which accommodates even novice traders. The introduction of AI-powered Grid Trading on Bitget for example allows both novice and experienced traders to make the most of bot trading.

A trade in which you want a bot to trade for you or copy other people's trade, you too can do so, All it requires you to do is just dedication of time and interest to learn how to do it. I highly discourage traders from depending on someone else to leverage the financial market when they can do it themselves. Think about if the system (bot) is no longer functioning or the source which you are copying from, meaning you are out of business.

Invest in yourself and learn the skill, and it will forever be part of you.
I believe that it is going to be a hard situation for sure but I also believe that we are not going to end up with a good result just like this, we need to get something much better to be done. I know that it is going to end up being a bit different and I know that it is not going to end up being easy and all but I feel like if you do bot trading or copy trading you are going to end up with a much worse result.

This is why I believe that the best thing to do in this case would be making sure that you are doing a good job yourself without getting help from anywhere else. I know that it is going to be a great case if you keep at it, but it would not be a simple task neither. This is why keep learning and being better and gain experience and the end result will be much better.

Both trading for require knowledge of risk management and understanding of the market. I think bot trading best because their are technical and risk are not . Both methods involve risks, but bot trading is automated which helps traders stop mistakes. On the other hand I think copy trading is suitable for investors who have limited time and cannot spend a long time in front of the screen. Both types of trading have their own benefits, but their effectiveness depends on the  trader

I agree with using bots because it helps us a lot in trading if we know how to set them up.  but it will only help us, not completely replace us, in making a profit.  as for copying trades, I think it's better to stay away in the first place because making money can be easy just by copying other people's trades.  have you ever thought about why so many people lose in trading?  If we don't have time to trade, why don't we switch to holding?

Make your own strategy for trading. It is not right to risk so much money depending on trading bot or any other system. If $4000 can be traded properly, you can convert this $4000 into much more dollars. You have enough money to trade but if you think you don't have enough ideas or experience to trade, you should stop your trading activities for some time. Keep your trading activities off for a few days and try to learn something about trading and follow professional traders to gain more experience. If you create good experience with your strategy and professional traders, then start trading with your $4k dollars you will get success

Both are for trading, copy trades for those of you who are quite reluctant to do analysis so they only follow every activity carried out by the lead trader while the bot must be used with trading analysis first, setting each target you want to get and the bot will do it automatically, and because both is still in trading, meaning the risk is the same, both are at risk of loss and both make you have to prepare spend more money because when doing a copy trade there will be a fee to be paid as well as the bot will have a license fee so it can use it. The two cannot be compared because everything is at risk.

If copy trading or signalling work in real life then everyone of us would be millionaire. Signalling groups earn 20 to 30 bucks per week from us by a promise that we would be millionaire by following there advices. You wont see any successful trader running a signalling group.

I would say just hold your 4K bitcoin because that’s pretty good amount if you look by the perspective of % gain over the period of time. As you know yearly hikes for the bitcoin could range from 50-200% or more. May be more I think because we have seen miraculous price hikes for a period of the one year or so. I think best advisable thing is to hold only. You will end up in unsecured investment if you do it on the bots. They are not sure shot way of making proper trades. They are sometimes just product which are getting sold in the name of making profits for you. So just be cautious while taking all the decisions.
I agree with your advice, for a newbie with no knowledge of trading, its best he stays away from it and just holds his bitcoins. Holding is not only safe, but it can also be more profitable than trading. Of course, if he is passionate about trading, he can start, but let's start with the knowledge not to seek to copy signals from others or use bots.

I sincerely advise OP not to trade without any knowledge, honestly, I have not seen anyone who can make a profit from copying others, it's all scams.
Even for a veteran, copy trading and trading with or without a bot is still a lot riskier than investing. Given that there is also a risk in investing therefore I won't call it safe. Profitability will depend on the person. No matter what they do, whether they invest or trade but if their skills are still low, they won't still make a good amount of profit.

Having a passion for one thing is important and we don't just force our selves to like them because we won't still be successful at them. Copy trading might only be for the lazy while using bots can sometimes be for the person who are busy. Not all copy trading are scam. Maybe you are not only aware that some are earning on them.
