Risk Warning 

Forex trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors.

Before deciding to participate in Forex trading, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience and risk appetite. Most importantly, do not invest money you cannot afford to lose. 

There is considerable exposure to risk in any foreign exchange transaction.  Any transaction involving currencies involves risks including, but not limited to, the potential for changing political and/or economic conditions that may substantially affect the price or liquidity of a currency. 

More over, the leveraged nature of FX trading means that any market movement will have an equally proportional effect on your deposited funds. This may work against you as well as for you. The possibility exists that you could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. If you fail to meet any margin call within the time prescribed, your position will be liquidated and you will be responsible for any resulting losses.  Investors may lower their exposure to risk by employing risk-reducing strategies such as  stop-loss or stop-limit orders.

There are also risks associated with utilizing an Internet-based deal execution software application including, but not limited, to the failure of hardware and software. Back up systems and contingency plans are in place to minimize the possibility of system failure, and phone trading is always available.
