⚠️ Important risk warning
Trading foreign exchange, contracts for difference (CFDs), and other leveraged products on margin carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.
Key risk factors
Market risk
Currency and CFD markets are volatile and can move rapidly against you. Market conditions can change quickly, and slippage may occur during periods of high volatility.
Leverage risk
The use of leverage can magnify both profits and losses. A small price movement can result in substantial losses that may exceed your initial deposit.
System and technology risk
Copy trading relies on technology infrastructure including internet connectivity, trading platforms, and communication systems. System failures, connection issues, or technical problems may prevent trades from being executed as intended.
Past performance risk
Past performance of signal providers is not indicative of future results. Historical returns, win rates, and other statistics do not guarantee similar future performance.
Counterparty risk
You are exposed to the credit risk of your broker and clearing counterparties. In the event of their insolvency, you may not be able to recover your funds.
Specific risks related to copy trading
Copy trading involves additional risks beyond normal trading:
- You have no control over the trading decisions made by the signal provider
- Execution delays or slippage may result in different prices between the signal provider and your account
- Signal providers may change their trading strategy at any time without notice
- Network or system issues may prevent trades from being copied accurately or in a timely manner
Recommendations
- Only invest capital that you can afford to lose
- Carefully review the track record and trading style of signal providers before subscribing
- Use appropriate risk management including position sizing and stop losses
- Regularly monitor your account and be prepared to intervene if necessary
