Risk Disclosure & Compliance
Important Risk Disclosure
Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have inherent limitations. Unlike actual performance, simulated results do not represent actual trading.
Since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs are designed with the benefit of hindsight.
No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
Our commitment to transparency and regulatory compliance ensures that institutional allocators receive comprehensive risk disclosure and ongoing performance reporting that meets the highest industry standards.
