Risk Disclaimer

Last Updated: June 2025

High Risk Warning

Forex and CFD trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Leveraged products can work against you as well as for you. You may lose some or all of your invested capital. Only trade with capital you can afford to lose. Ensure you fully understand the risks involved before trading.

1. Risks of Leveraged Products

Forex (foreign exchange), contracts for difference (CFDs), and related derivative instruments are leveraged products. This means a relatively small market movement can result in a proportionally much larger movement in the value of your position — both in your favour and against you.

The high degree of leverage available in forex and CFD trading can work against you, and losses can exceed your initial deposit. You should only trade with capital that you can afford to lose entirely without affecting your financial wellbeing or lifestyle.

2. Past Performance Is Not Indicative of Future Results

Past performance of any indicator, strategy, expert advisor, or trading system is not indicative of future results. Any backtest results, hypothetical performance figures, or historical data presented on this website are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not represent actual trading results.

Backtested performance results have inherent limitations, including the fact that they are prepared with the benefit of hindsight. Market conditions change continually, and a strategy or tool that performed well historically may not perform similarly in the future.

3. No Financial Advice

All content published on forextradingtools.eu — including product descriptions, blog articles, tutorials, and any other material — is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, trading advice, or any other type of professional advice.

Forex Trading Tools (FxTT) is not a licensed financial advisor, investment firm, broker, dealer, or any other type of regulated financial services provider. Nothing communicated by FxTT, its owner, or its representatives should be construed as a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument.

4. Indicators and EAs Are Analytical Tools, Not Trading Signals

The technical indicators and expert advisors (EAs) sold by FxTT are analytical and automation tools designed to assist traders in their own analysis and decision-making. They are not trading signal services and do not guarantee any trading outcome.

An indicator may highlight a pattern or level; an EA may execute a rule-based strategy — but neither removes the inherent uncertainty of financial markets. Market conditions, broker execution, slippage, and other factors beyond the software's control may affect results in live trading.

5. Independent Decision-Making

All trading decisions, including when to enter or exit the market, position sizing, and risk management, are the sole responsibility of the individual trader. FxTT accepts no responsibility for trading decisions made using its tools.

Before using any trading tool or strategy, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. If you are unsure, seek independent professional advice from a qualified financial adviser in your jurisdiction.

6. Regulatory Notice

Forex Trading Tools does not hold any financial services authorisation, licence, or registration from any financial regulatory authority, including but not limited to the CMVM (Portugal), ESMA (EU), FCA (UK), CFTC (US), or ASIC (Australia).

Users are strongly encouraged to consult with a licensed, regulated financial adviser before engaging in any form of forex or CFD trading. In many jurisdictions, only licensed entities may legally provide financial advice. It is the user's responsibility to comply with all applicable laws and regulations in their own jurisdiction before trading.

7. Risk of Capital Loss

Trading in leveraged financial instruments carries a high risk to your capital. You may lose some or all of your invested capital, and in some cases — particularly with leveraged instruments — losses may exceed your initial deposit.

Never trade with money you cannot afford to lose. Do not trade with funds earmarked for essential expenses such as rent, mortgage repayments, food, retirement savings, or emergency funds.

8. Technology Risk

Expert advisors and indicators are software and are subject to technology risk. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Software bugs, errors, or unexpected behaviour under unusual market conditions;
  • Platform incompatibilities or updates to MT4/MT5 that may affect functionality;
  • Internet connectivity issues, server downtime, or broker outages that may prevent order execution;
  • Discrepancies between backtested (historical) performance and live trading performance due to differences in data feed, spreads, slippage, and execution.

FxTT provides all software “as is” and accepts no responsibility for losses arising from software malfunction, connectivity failures, or broker-side execution issues. Users are responsible for monitoring automated systems and maintaining appropriate risk controls.
