Risk Disclosure Agreement

Trading in foreign exchange markets involves significant risks. Before engaging in forex trading, please carefully consider the following risk factors:

1. Volatility: Forex markets are known for their high volatility, meaning that currency exchange rates fluctuate rapidly and unpredictably. Various factors, including economic news, geopolitical events, and market sentiment, can influence price movements. Volatility can lead to both profit opportunities and substantial losses.

2. Leverage: Forex trading often involves the use of leverage, which allows traders to control larger positions with a relatively small amount of capital. While leverage can amplify potential profits, it can also magnify losses. It is important to understand the risks associated with leverage and to use it responsibly.

3. Market Risk: Forex trading is subject to market risk, including the risk of adverse price movements. Economic factors such as interest rate changes, inflation, and political stability can affect currency exchange rates. These factors can impact the value of currencies and lead to losses.

4. Counterparty Risk: Forex trading involves transactions with counterparties, such as banks, financial institutions, or other traders. There is a risk of default or insolvency of a counterparty, which may result in the inability to fulfill obligations or recover funds.

5. Liquidity Risk: While the forex market is highly liquid and trades 24 hours a day, there may be instances where liquidity is limited, particularly during certain market conditions or trading sessions. This can result in wider spreads, slippage, or difficulty in executing trades at desired prices.

6. Regulatory Risk: Forex trading is subject to regulations and legal requirements imposed by regulatory authorities. Changes in regulations or new regulatory measures may impact trading conditions, margin requirements, or the availability of certain financial instruments.

7. Technical Risk: Forex trading platforms and systems are susceptible to technical failures, including disruptions in internet connectivity, hardware or software issues, or system outages. These technical risks can affect trade execution, order placement, or access to account information.

8. Risks of Automated Trading: Additional risks are involved if you use automated trading systems, including expert advisors or algorithms. Malfunctioning algorithms, programming errors, or incorrect parameter settings can lead to unexpected losses.

9. Risk of Loss of Capital: Forex trading involves the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your invested capital. It is important to only trade with funds you can afford to lose and consider your risk tolerance and financial situation carefully.
