Trading financial instruments, foreign exchange, contracts for difference, derivatives and digital assets involves substantial risk. Prices can move rapidly, liquidity can deteriorate and leveraged positions can result in losses that are greater than expected. You should understand the product and be able to bear the financial consequences before trading or granting authority to another person or system.
Market risk
The value of financial instruments and digital assets can rise or fall quickly. Economic data, policy announcements, geopolitical events, market sentiment and unexpected events can produce significant price movements and gaps. A position may lose value rapidly, and there is no assurance that a market will recover.
Leverage, margin and liquidation
Leverage increases market exposure relative to the capital committed. It magnifies both profits and losses. A relatively small adverse price movement may trigger a margin call, forced close-out or liquidation. You may lose all of the funds allocated to a position and, depending on the account terms and applicable product, may be liable for additional amounts.
Liquidity, spread and execution risk
A market may become illiquid or unavailable. Spreads may widen, order books may become shallow, and orders may be partially filled, rejected, delayed or executed at a price materially different from the requested or displayed price. Stop-loss and limit instructions do not guarantee a particular execution price or that an order will execute.
Automated trading and model risk
Automated systems may act on incorrect, delayed or incomplete data; unexpected market conditions; coding or configuration errors; model assumptions; or changes in venue rules. Strategy performance can deteriorate, trades may be duplicated or missed, and an automated process may continue to operate until detected and stopped. Monitoring and risk controls reduce some operational risks but cannot eliminate them.
Technology, connectivity and cyber risk
Internet, cloud, server, broker, exchange, API and communications outages can interrupt data and trading. Cyberattacks, credential compromise, malicious software and unauthorised access may cause loss or disruption. Clients should use strong unique passwords, secure their devices and never provide passwords, recovery phrases or unrestricted withdrawal credentials to another person.
Counterparty, custody and digital-asset risk
A broker, exchange, custodian, payment provider or other counterparty may become insolvent, suspend operations, restrict withdrawals or fail to perform. Digital-asset transfers may be irreversible, wallet addresses may be compromised and private-key loss may be permanent. The client agreement identifies the relevant account, venue and custody arrangements; do not assume assets are held by AureonMarkets unless the agreement expressly states so.
Foreign exchange and jurisdiction risk
Transactions may be affected by currency conversion, local market restrictions, tax rules, changes in law and the regulatory status of providers in different jurisdictions. A product or service may not be available or lawful for every client or in every country.
Conflicts, fees and charges
Trading and service fees, spreads, commissions, financing, funding, custody, conversion and withdrawal charges affect net results. You should review the fee schedule and any conflicts-of-interest disclosures before proceeding. A fee may be payable even where overall portfolio performance is negative if the contract defines its calculation by individual transactions; the relevant agreement must be read carefully.
No guarantee; suitability and independent advice
No bot, signal, strategy, account tier or managed-trading service can guarantee a profit or prevent a loss. Back-tested, simulated and historical results are not reliable indicators of future performance. Consider your objectives, knowledge, experience, financial position and tolerance for loss. Seek independent financial, legal or tax advice where appropriate. Only trade with capital you can afford to lose.
