5. Trading and Financial Disclaimers
NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE. The Service provides tools, data, and algorithmic signals. Nothing in the Service constitutes investment advice, financial advice, trading advice, or any other sort of advice. You should not treat any of the Service's content as such.
You acknowledge and agree that:
- Risk of loss: Trading securities, options, futures, and other financial instruments involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. You could lose some or all of your invested capital.
- No guarantees: Past performance of any trading algorithm, signal, or strategy does not guarantee future results. Historical backtests are hypothetical and subject to model limitations, survivorship bias, and overfitting risk.
- Algorithmic risks: Automated trading systems may experience software errors, connectivity failures, data feed disruptions, or unexpected market conditions that result in losses. Circuit breakers, kill switches, and safety gates reduce but do not eliminate these risks.
- Your responsibility: You are solely responsible for all trading decisions and their outcomes, whether executed manually or through the Platform's automated systems. You should consult a qualified financial advisor before making investment decisions.
- Market data: Market data provided through the Service may be delayed, incomplete, or contain errors. We do not guarantee the accuracy, timeliness, or completeness of any market data.
- Brokerage relationship: The Company is not a broker-dealer, investment advisor, or financial institution. Trade execution is performed by third-party brokerages (e.g., Alpaca Securities LLC, TopstepX). Your relationship with these brokerages is governed by their own terms and agreements.
