Copytrading Forex.

Is there a problem with copytrading forex?
I'm in a copytrading system that yields about 3% per month, the trader takes 33% of any profits made that month.
On Forex sites this seems heavily discouraged.
This seems to be a better yield than an Index Fund though.
Looked through the history of the traders and they're doing fine. I generally look for traders that are consistent in the last two years rather than high yield traders.
