Risk Disclaimer

 

Trading comes with inherent risks due to the unpredictable nature of the market. It is important to understand that past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results; thus, investors must be aware that their investments could potentially lose value.

Additionally, Futures; Options; Foreign Exchange; and Stock trading all come with a significant level of risk as these markets represent actual trading which carries additional uncertain aspects.

Futures and options trading is an actual trading opportunity that gives investors the potential to reap significant rewards, but with these large potential rewards comes large potential risks. In order for investors to succeed, they must gain an understanding of how markets function and be comfortable with the volatility associated with futures and options trading, such as sudden price movements, actual market conditions, liquidity, market structure and volatility. When engaging in such endeavors, only capital that one can truly afford to lose should be invested. Furthermore, investors should ensure they have sufficient risk capital available should they suffer losses within their trading account.

 

CFTC RULE 4.41.(b)(1)(i)

 

Simulated or hypothetical trading results have certain limitations, making them an unreliable predictor of future performance. Unlike results of actual trades executed in the market, simulated results do not accurately represent the possible impact of human error, lack of liquidity, and other market conditions. Additionally, the simulated results only take into account known variables, thus disregarding any unknown factors which may cause a differing result. As such, only risk capital should be used for simulated trading and past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance.
