Trading by yourself vs Letting someone trade for you

Professor, that says it all!

you may earn 80% of the profits, but its a 100% for the loses. thats not a great deal given that you teach your self to be lazy, limit your learning. and for gods sake, its like puting your life in the hands of some1 you don't even know (exaggerated).

I don't like trading other peoples money, and I don't want them trading mine. on a positive note, trading your own trades has more than just profit for you. you gain knowledge, experience and the ability to share that with people that matter and appreciate you for it. brag about earning money doing nothing. trust me that aint cool

Let someone else trade for me ? Hedge / investment fund - maybe , retailer - never .

I think letting some trade on behalf may be good if you can bear the charges and if you don't have much knowledge about the forex market. Until and unless your sure you can trade do not hire any broker.

Do you mean like social trading? On a social trading platform you can find experienced traders, you just need to follow them, they will trade for you. But the most challenging part is to find out a good trader to follow. I wouldn't recommend it though.
