Copy trading vs AI trading: copy someone else or decide with data?
With copy trading your account automatically replicates another trader's trades, with their risk and style. With an AI assistant like AIM you decide: you get the analysis, the plan and the probability, and size the risk to your account.

What few people tell you about copy trading
You also copy someone else's losing streaks and leverage. A trader's past returns do not guarantee future ones, part of the result goes to fees and, if the copied trader changes style, you find out late.
When each one makes sense
If you do not want to spend a minute on it, copy trading may be tempting, but someone else sets the risk. If you want to trade on your own judgment and grow as a trader, an AI assistant gives you a professional desk's information and lets you decide.
