Reasons African Investors Should Look At Automating Their Crypto Investing

I’m sure you are thinking I’m currently trading a small amount/portfolio, why should I use a bot?

The reason is simple; it’s important you know about it now so that when you start trading large sums you don’t lose it all within a few days.

You see, bitter occurrences happen regularly in crypto. Off recent, I heard someone lost $400,000(#280,000,000). He made a lot of profit from crypto and started feeling like is the best investor.

Also, Africans are lacking behind in terms of automating their investment. The majority of us still have to log in to a computer before placing any trades. That’s different in the developed world.

Basically, it’s as if we are competing with computers, and it’s important we know how to make computers work for us. It’s painful staying online watching your computer screen and at the end of the day still losing money due to a small mistake in position sizing that a computer will never make.

Here are more reasons you should automate your crypto investing

To avoid losses due to emotional trading or investing(FOMOing)- a bot can minimize the impact that overreaction or wrong reactions can cause to your portfolio.

Computers can help us maximize profit in a very volatile market like crypto

It would help us to not suffer a great loss – if you have suffered one before then you’ll understand this.

Finally, to avoid unnecessary mistakes – humans are prone to mistakes. We can only reduce the amount we make.
