Risk Disclosure

Trading leveraged products is high-risk. This disclosure explains the principal risks so you can make an informed decision.

Trading foreign exchange, CFDs and other leveraged products carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses that exceed your deposits. These products may not be suitable for all investors; ensure you fully understand the risks and seek independent advice if necessary. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.

This Risk Disclosure is provided by OstinFx Ltd. to help you understand the nature of the products and services we offer and the risks involved. It is not exhaustive and does not, and cannot, disclose every risk associated with trading. You should not trade unless you fully understand the products, the extent of your exposure to loss, and the risks described below.

1. General risk

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 may sustain losses rapidly and, in some circumstances, lose more than the amount you deposited. You should only trade with money you can afford to lose entirely without affecting your standard of living or financial commitments.

2. Leverage and margin

Leveraged products allow you to take a position with a relatively small deposit (margin) compared with the full value of the position. While leverage can magnify profits, it magnifies losses in exactly the same way, and even a small adverse market movement can result in substantial loss. If your account equity falls below the required margin, your positions may be closed automatically, in whole or in part, without prior notice, and you may be required to provide further funds at short notice to maintain open positions.

3. Market volatility

Financial markets can move rapidly and unpredictably in response to economic data, geopolitical events, central-bank decisions and other factors. Prices may gap — moving sharply from one level to another without trading at intermediate prices — particularly at market open, around news events or during periods of low liquidity. This can cause orders, including stop orders, to be executed at prices materially different from those you requested.

4. Liquidity risk

Under certain market conditions it may be difficult or impossible to close a position, execute an order at your preferred price, or obtain a price at all. Reduced liquidity can widen spreads, increase slippage and delay execution, which may increase your costs and losses.

5. FX and CFD-specific risks

  • CFDs are complex instruments and derivative products; you do not own or have any rights in the underlying asset.
  • Holding positions overnight may incur financing or swap charges that accumulate over time and erode returns.
  • Currency exposure can affect the value of positions and of your account where funds are held or converted between currencies.
  • Corporate actions, dividends and other adjustments to the underlying asset may affect CFD positions.

6. Technology and execution risk

Online trading depends on hardware, software and internet connectivity that may fail or be interrupted. Delays, outages, system errors, latency and connectivity problems — whether on our systems, those of third parties or your own — may prevent you from placing, modifying or closing orders, or may cause orders to be executed at unexpected prices. You should have alternative arrangements for managing your positions when access is unavailable.

7. No investment advice

The Services are provided on an execution-only basis. We do not provide investment, tax, legal or financial advice, and nothing we publish or communicate constitutes a personal recommendation or an assessment that a particular product or transaction is suitable or appropriate for you. Any research, analysis, signals or educational material is general in nature. You are solely responsible for your trading decisions and should seek independent advice where necessary.

8. Appropriateness

Before trading, you should carefully consider whether these products are appropriate for you in light of your knowledge, experience, financial situation, objectives and risk tolerance. If you are in any doubt, you should seek independent professional advice. Opening an account does not imply that leveraged trading is suitable or appropriate for your circumstances.

9. Past performance

Past performance, whether actual or simulated, is not a reliable indicator of future results. Hypothetical and back-tested performance has inherent limitations and does not reflect the impact of real market conditions. No representation is made that any account will, or is likely to, achieve profits or losses similar to those shown in any historical or illustrative material.
