01Overview
The following statements are intended to inform the Customer of the potential risks involved in trading on financial markets. This disclosure forms an integral part of the customer agreement. Please note that not all risks can be comprehensively covered due to the complexity of trading.
Customers lack statutory compensation protections and should seek independent advice before trading the Company's products. Trading involves substantial risks, and participants can lose their entire investment.
02Risk statements
Online trading involves substantial risks. The Company provides no investment, tax or legal advice beyond general consultations. Customers should not risk more than they are prepared to lose and must understand the risks before trading.
03Effect of leverage
Margin trading amplifies the impact of market movements on accounts. Even small market movements may have a great impact on a Customer's trading account due to the effect of leverage. Customers may lose their entire initial margin plus additional deposits if market trends move against them.
04Technical risks
Risks from system failures include hardware, software and internet connectivity issues, improper equipment operation and incorrect terminal settings. The Company acknowledges potential communication delays during peak trading periods and increased execution times during abnormal market conditions.
05Trading platform
Only one instruction queues at a time, and closing order windows does not cancel already-submitted instructions. The server is the only reliable quote source; terminal quotes may be incomplete during poor connections.
06Communications
Customers assume risks from missed or delayed notifications. Unencrypted email lacks protection from unauthorised access, and internal messages are deleted five days after sending, regardless of receipt status. Customers also bear risks from force majeure events and from financial market operations prohibited under the laws of their jurisdiction.
