1. General Risk
Trading leveraged derivatives, including contracts for difference (CFDs) on forex, metals, indices, energies, cryptocurrencies and shares, carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The leveraged nature of these products means that small market movements can result in disproportionately large gains or losses.
2. Possibility of Loss
You may lose some or all of your invested capital. Past performance of any instrument or strategy is not a reliable indicator of future results. You should not invest funds you cannot afford to lose.
3. Leverage Risk
Leverage magnifies both profits and losses. A trade opened with high leverage can move against you rapidly, requiring additional margin or resulting in automatic stop-out and the closure of open positions.
4. Market Risk
Financial markets can be volatile and are influenced by macroeconomic events, monetary policy decisions, geopolitical developments, and other unpredictable factors. Prices may gap, spreads may widen, and liquidity may decrease during such events.
5. Execution and Slippage
Orders are executed at the best available price at the time of execution. Slippage may occur in fast-moving or low-liquidity markets, resulting in execution at a price different from that requested.
6. Technology Risk
Trading is conducted over the internet and depends on hardware, software, and network connectivity. Outages, latency, or disruption of services beyond the reasonable control of RakizFx may prevent timely order execution or modification.
7. Counterparty Risk
RakizFx routes orders to tier-1 liquidity providers. Although client funds are held in segregated accounts, complete protection cannot be guaranteed against insolvency events affecting third-party institutions.
8. Currency Risk
Trades denominated in a currency other than the account’s base currency are subject to exchange-rate fluctuations that may adversely affect realised profits and losses.
9. Tax Risk
Tax treatment of trading results varies by jurisdiction and personal circumstances. You are responsible for assessing the tax implications of your trading activity and seeking independent advice where appropriate.
10. Independent Judgement
RakizFx does not provide personal investment advice. Any market information, research, or analysis provided is for general reference only and does not constitute a recommendation to buy or sell any instrument. You should make all trading decisions based on your own assessment.
11. Acknowledgement
By opening and using a RakizFx account, you acknowledge that you have read this Risk Warning, understand the risks associated with leveraged trading, and accept full responsibility for your trading decisions and outcomes.
