Risk Disclosure
Last updated
Summary
Trading forex, futures, crypto assets and other leveraged products carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for everyone. Leverage magnifies losses as well as gains, and you can lose all of the capital you trade with. Past performance, including any results shown on this site, does not indicate future results. Everything we share, in the app and on this site, is general educational content. It is not personal financial, investment or tax advice and does not consider your circumstances. Only trade with money you can afford to lose, and consider independent advice.
You can lose all of your capital
Forex, futures, CFDs, options and crypto assets are high risk, and most are traded with leverage. Leverage lets a small deposit control a large position, so a small price move against you can cause a large loss. You can lose all the money in your trading account, and with some products and brokers you can lose more than you deposited.
Markets move fast
Prices can jump on news, data releases and low liquidity. Markets can gap over weekends and holidays, so a stop loss may be filled at a much worse price than you set, or not at all. Crypto markets trade around the clock and can move sharply at any hour.
Past results do not predict future results
Any results, statistics, win rates or closed trades shown on this site or in the app describe the past. They do not indicate what will happen next, and other people following the same ideas may have had different results. Signals marked “Example format” show how a signal looks, not a real trade.
Education, not personal advice
Everything BlackOutFX shares, on this site, in the app and through our Telegram bot, is general educational content. It is not personal financial, investment or tax advice, and it does not consider your goals, experience or finances. We do not manage accounts or trade for anyone.
Trade ideas are not instructions
A signal or trade idea shows how we read the market at one moment. It can be wrong, and conditions can change after it is posted. Deciding whether to take a trade, how large it is and how to manage it is your responsibility.
Your results will differ
Your broker's prices, spreads, fees, swap costs and execution speed may differ from ours. Entering later, using a different size or managing the trade differently changes the outcome. Slippage can make both entries and exits worse than planned.
Extra risks with crypto assets
Crypto assets are especially volatile and are not regulated in the same way in every country. Exchanges can fail, freeze withdrawals or be hacked, and you may have no protection if that happens.
Before you trade
- Only trade with money you can afford to lose.
- Understand how leverage, margin and the products you trade work.
- Decide your risk per trade and a loss limit before you start.
- Check that trading these products is legal where you live.
- If you are unsure, get advice from an independent, licensed financial adviser.
