Risk Disclosure

1. General Risk Warning

All forms of trading carry inherent risks. The value of investments can go down as well as up, and you may receive back less than your original investment. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Before you begin trading, you must:

• Understand the nature and risks of financial instruments
• Have sufficient knowledge and experience
• Be able to bear potential losses
• Only trade with money you can afford to lose

2. Leverage and Margin Trading Risks

High Risk of Loss

Leverage amplifies both profits and losses. A small market movement can have a proportionally larger impact on leveraged positions. You may lose more than your initial deposit.

Margin Calls and Liquidation

If your account equity falls below required margin levels:

• You will receive a margin call to deposit additional funds
• Your positions may be automatically liquidated
• Liquidation may occur at unfavorable prices
• You remain liable for any negative balance

Example

With 10:1 leverage and a $1,000 investment, you control $10,000. A 5% adverse move results in a $500 loss (50% of your investment). A 10% adverse move wipes out your entire investment.

3. Market-Specific Risks

7. Emotional and Psychological Risks

8. Risk Management Recommendations
