r/Etoro

Has anyone been able to make a living off copy trading? And who are the best traders to copy I know it’s a stupid question but i genuinely want to learn.

Can someone explain this hike and how to get round it.

I worry if I keep buying btc on etoro that when I sell the fees will be so high.

​

Honestly the more time I spend learning markets/investing theore I noticed ppl online seem to be describing completely different experiences with the same platform .

Some ppl talk constantly about spreads , execution volatility and fees while others barely seem bothered by any of that at all ... I still don’t fully understand what kind of user etoro actually works best for in practice.

...which is why I haven't accepted the Seychelles T&C popup when I open eToro.

eToro offered me a way to stay under CySEC instead. I accepted. Then they went silent.

I'm an EU citizen currently living outside the EU, which is what triggered this. My account got flagged to be moved from eToro Europe (CySEC regulated) to eToro Seychelles. Since I'm moving back to the EU soon, I asked to stay under CySEC.

Support was responsive at first. They asked for documents, I sent everything same day, and they came back offering me exactly what I wanted: stay under CySEC with limited functionality until I return to the EU. I accepted in writing in May and asked a few questions to confirm the details.

That's where it stopped. Three months later nothing has changed. My account still shows the Seychelles migration prompt, so the option was never applied. Every follow up gets the same "high volume of requests" line. My own account manager told me he can't get an answer out of them either.

Before anyone from eToro replies that my case is under review: it has been under review since May.

Here's what I think is actually going on. Whoever offered me that option didn't have the authority to deliver it. It got passed to an internal team with no process for it, and now nobody owns the case. And every user who gets tired and accepts Seychelles is one less client eToro has to cover under CySEC protections. Nobody there has any reason to fix this.

I'd like to be wrong about that. Nothing so far suggests I am.

I'm a Diamond member and I'm starting to regret choosing eToro.

So how is a client supposed to plan around an offer the company made and then stopped acknowledging?

And for anyone who's been through it: Has anyone actually made it back to eToro Europe after accepting Seychelles?

De vraie petite lope
De gros escros
Ils m’on encore arnaqué pour la 300 eme fois je dirais

Il y as les magouilles de fermer le marché , le ouvrir quand on veux
Beaucoup de gens ce plaignent de ça.

Il y a aussi les fermeture au mauvais prix
C’est à dire on ferme une action au prix affiché sur Etoro et eux le ferme avec d’autres prix . Donc bien évidemment on perd de l’argent

Il y aussi des frais à chaque actions. Bon voilà, ça c’est pour vous dire le mentalité des gens un peut.

Et maintenant il y a le faites que l’actions / le marché ne bouge pas beaucoup plusieurs minutes ( 5 minutes par exemple ) et sur tout les autres plateformes le prix bouge. Et d’un coup on ce met à prendre beaucoup d’argent car ça baisse ou monte en flèche .
Il n’indique pas le bon prix encore

Wow this company is awful.

They allow me to open an account, make a trade, then they lock my account. I can't do anything with my investments or cash.

I try to figure out why. I try to speak to someone. No phone number to call. Agents aren't available over their chatbox, only AI. Which doesn't help at all.

I open a ticket. My ticket doesn't get answered for over 2 weeks. All the while my account is still locked away.

Today I get a message saying they are closing my account and refunding my investment.

What an absolute piece of shit company.

Hey eToro, how about you learn customer service and stop fucking over people that use your platform? I only opened an account for a Rakuten bonus so wasn't expecting much, but wow, you underperformed my low expectations.

hope this does not violate any rules looking for a referral
Platinum+ only
