Risk Disclosure

Let me first ask that you do not take this lightly. Many of the government required "disclosures" seem so boilerplate and unimportant. There is however in FOREX real risk. This is a high-leverage investment. Potential for huge returns as well as potential for large losses. We may lose 10 trades in a row before we get back to winning. You should fully understand the risk and the emotions that are involved.

Risk Warning! Trading foreign exchange includes the use of margin and carries with it a high Initial level of risk which may not be suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose nor should you ever invest borrowed funds. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from independent financial, tax and legal advisors if you have any doubts.

CTFC Rule 4.41 - Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under- or over- compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
