Risk Disclosure
Risk and Hypothetical Performance Disclosure
Last updated February 14, 2024
Risk Disclosure
Crypto, Stock, Futures, Forex, or any trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
The Trader Engineering Course found on this website at traderengineering.com/course trading course is for educational purposes only and the opinions expressed are those of the presenter only. All trades presented should be considered hypothetical and should not be expected to be replicated in a live trading account. You are responsible for the risk associated with every trade you take.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations. Some of these limitations are described below. Hypothetical performance results are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight and do not involve financial risk. No hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. Hypothetical performance also does not involve commissions and other costs that may be incurred in an actual trading program. Hypothetical Performance Disclosure: (1) Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. (2) One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. (3) Hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they 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. (4) Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
In addition to the Disclaimers above, I also agree to the following terms:
Hypothetical performance results are often limited by several factors, including the benefit of hindsight. There is no way for a trader to accurately predict how their strategy will react in different market conditions. This means that any given person’s record might represent great success or terrible failure depending entirely upon where those people got lucky (or unlucky) with timing while playing through various scenarios at once like an arcade game without pay-up machines but instead relying solely upon skillful trading skills which can never account completely for all potential risks involved because every single trade has its own unique story.
I understand that disclosure is an important part of any business relationship. I will notify TraderEngineering.com of any change in my email address so that communication can continue seamlessly. I also understand that investing involves risk and can result in serious financial loss. I am responsible for my own investment decisions and I understand that trading is difficult and can take many years to master. Most people never achieve success in trading, quitting through frustration or loss of funds well before they reach their goal. I agree to assume all responsibility for my own investment decisions and results.
CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Between 74-89% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. You should consider whether you understand how CFFs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Professional advice should be sought if necessary. Investors should only use risk capital when trading because there is always the potential for substantial loss. Leverage can work against you just as easily as it can work for you. Before deciding to trade or invest, carefully consider your investment objectives, experience level, and risk tolerance. There is a possibility that you could sustain a loss in excess of your deposited funds. You should not begin trading or investing unless you fully understand the true extent of your exposure to the risk of loss. When trading or investing, you must always take into consideration the level of your experience. If the risks involved seem unclear to you, please seek independent financial advice. Remember: past performance does not guarantee future results! This disclosure has been prepared without taking account of your personal objectives, financial situations or needs. Because of this you should, before acting on this disclosure, consider its appropriateness having regard to your personal objectives,
