Risk Disclosure
Important information about the risks associated with trading and using our services.
Last updated: December 2024
Important Warning
Trading foreign exchange, contracts for difference (CFDs), and other leveraged products carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. You should carefully consider whether trading is appropriate for you in light of your circumstances, knowledge, and financial resources.
1. General Risk Warning
Trading in financial markets involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. The high degree of leverage available in forex and CFD trading can work both for and against you. Before deciding to trade, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite.
You should be aware that you could lose some or all of your initial investment. Do not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.
2. Nature of Trading Signals
Twelve Trading provides a platform for receiving and automatically executing trading signals. These signals are:
- Not financial advice: Trading signals are not recommendations to buy or sell any financial instrument. They should not be construed as investment advice.
- Not guaranteed: Past performance of trading signals is not indicative of future results. There is no guarantee that any signal will be profitable.
- Subject to market conditions: Signal execution depends on market liquidity, volatility, and other factors beyond our control.
3. Technical Risks
Using automated trading systems involves technical risks, including but not limited to:
- Connectivity issues: Internet connection failures, server downtime, or network latency may prevent signals from being received or executed.
- Software errors: Bugs or malfunctions in the Bridge application, Expert Advisor, or MetaTrader platform may result in missed or incorrect trades.
- Execution delays: While we strive for millisecond execution, there may be delays that affect trade entry or exit prices.
- Slippage: The price at which a trade is executed may differ from the signal price due to market conditions.
4. Leverage Risk
Leverage allows you to control a larger position with a smaller amount of capital. While leverage can amplify profits, it also amplifies losses. A small market movement against your position can result in losses exceeding your initial deposit. You may be required to deposit additional funds at short notice to maintain your positions, and if you fail to do so, your positions may be liquidated at a loss.
5. Market Risks
Financial markets are subject to various risks:
- Volatility: Prices can move rapidly and unpredictably, especially during news events or market stress.
- Gaps: Prices may gap significantly between trading sessions, bypassing stop-loss orders.
- Liquidity: Some markets or instruments may have limited liquidity, making it difficult to enter or exit positions.
- Currency risk: Trading in foreign currencies exposes you to exchange rate fluctuations.
6. No Guarantee of Profits
There is no guarantee that you will make money using our services. Many traders lose money. You should only trade with money you can afford to lose. Do not rely on trading as your sole source of income. The testimonials, if any, presented on our website may not be representative of all users, and past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
