Risk Disclosure Statement

Last Updated: January 15, 2025

Trading leveraged financial instruments carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors.

1. General Trading Risks

1.1 Risk of Loss

Trading Contracts for Difference (CFDs), forex, and other leveraged products carries a high level of risk. You may sustain a loss of some or all of your invested capital. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.

1.2 Leverage Risk

While leverage allows you to magnify your returns, it also magnifies losses. Even small market movements can result in substantial losses exceeding your initial deposit.

1.3 Volatility Risk

Financial markets can be extremely volatile, with prices moving rapidly in response to economic, political, and other events. This volatility can lead to significant losses.

2. Market-Specific Risks

2.1 Forex Risks

Foreign exchange rates may fluctuate significantly due to:

  • Changes in national interest rates
  • Political instability
  • Economic policy changes
  • Market liquidity variations

2.2 CFD Risks

CFD trading involves additional risks including:

  • Overnight financing costs
  • Gapping risks where prices move between sessions
  • Dividend adjustments for share CFDs

2.3 Cryptocurrency Risks

Digital assets present unique risks:

  • Extreme price volatility
  • Regulatory uncertainty
  • Technology and security risks
  • Potential market manipulation

3. Technical & Execution Risks

3.1 System Risks

Technical failures may occur including:

  • Platform outages or delays
  • Internet connectivity issues
  • Data feed inaccuracies
  • Order execution delays

3.2 Slippage

During periods of high volatility, your orders may be executed at prices different from requested, particularly for market orders.

3.3 Liquidity Risk

Some instruments may have limited liquidity, making it difficult to execute trades at desired prices, especially for large positions.

4. Regulatory & Legal Risks

4.1 Jurisdictional Risks

Laws and regulations governing financial trading vary by jurisdiction and may change, potentially affecting:

  • Available products
  • Leverage limits
  • Tax treatment
  • Investor protections

4.2 Tax Considerations

Tax treatment of trading profits varies by country and may change. You are solely responsible for understanding and complying with your tax obligations.

5. Risk Management Considerations

5.1 Stop-Loss Limitations

While stop-loss orders can limit losses, they are not guaranteed:

  • May not execute at exact specified price
  • May be ineffective during rapid market movements
  • May not be available for all instruments

5.2 Margin Requirements

You must maintain sufficient margin in your account. We may close positions without notice if your margin level falls below required thresholds.

Concentrating investments in a single instrument or market sector increases risk. Consider diversifying your portfolio to manage risk exposure.
