Risk Disclosure
1. Trading Risk
Trading involves a high level of risk and may not be suitable for everyone. Asset prices can change rapidly and unpredictably, leading to significant fluctuations within a short period. Under certain market conditions, you may lose part or all of the funds you have invested. You should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. Past performance, signals, or strategies do not guarantee future results.
2. No Guarantee of Profit
Stockity does not guarantee profits, fixed income, or a specific success rate. All educational materials, indicators, and tools provided on the platform are for informational purposes only. All trading decisions are entirely the responsibility of the user. Results may vary depending on strategies used, market conditions, execution speed, and other technical factors.
3. Technical Risks
Technical issues may occur at any time, including but not limited to unstable internet connections, hardware failures, application crashes, system updates, or server outages. Such issues may lead to delays in execution, transaction interruptions, price changes, or temporary inability to access your account. Users are responsible for ensuring their devices and internet connections are functioning properly before trading.
4. Volatility Risk
Financial markets are highly volatile and may change rapidly due to economic news, government policies, macroeconomic data, or unexpected global events. Rapid price movements may increase the possibility of significant losses and can occur without warning. High volatility may also lead to widened spreads and slippage.
5. Liquidity Risk
Some assets may have low liquidity, making it difficult to execute orders at the desired price. Assets with lower trading volumes or certain market conditions may cause orders to be executed at a different price (slippage) or not executed at all.
6. Slippage & Requote Risk
Slippage refers to the difference between the price you see and the actual price at which your order is executed. This may occur during periods of high volatility or slow network conditions. Requotes may occur when the price changes before the order is processed. Both situations are common aspects of online trading.
7. Leverage Risk
If leverage is used on the platform, the risk of loss may increase significantly. Leverage can amplify both potential profits and losses. Even small movements in market prices may lead to substantial losses. Users should fully understand how leverage works before using it.
8. Psychological & Emotional Risks
Trading may affect a user’s emotional condition, including stress, anxiety, impulsive decisions, or overtrading. These psychological factors may lead to irrational decision-making. Emotional control and disciplined trading behavior are essential for managing risk effectively.
9. Regulatory & Legal Risks
Changes in government regulations or regulatory policies may affect service availability, asset access, or certain trading conditions. While Stockity aims to comply with applicable laws and regulations, external changes may impact the services available to users.
10. Third-Party Risks
Deposits, withdrawals, or certain services may depend on third-party providers such as banks, payment gateways, or digital infrastructure providers. Disruptions in third-party services may lead to delays in transactions or temporary inability to access funds.
11. Cybersecurity Risks
Although Stockity implements advanced security measures, no system can guarantee complete security. Cyber attacks, hacking attempts, malware, phishing, or unauthorized access may occur. Users are responsible for protecting their personal devices and must not share their login credentials with anyone.
12. Execution & Delay Risks
Execution speed may be affected by network conditions, server load, or market situations. Delays may cause prices to change before an order is processed. Users should understand that delays are a common risk in online trading environments.
13. Fees & Cost Risks
Trading may involve various costs such as spreads, commissions, swap fees, or withdrawal fees. These costs may reduce profits or increase losses. Users are responsible for reviewing and understanding all applicable fees before trading.
14. Force Majeure Risks
Extraordinary circumstances such as natural disasters, wars, global internet disruptions, political crises, or other force majeure events may lead to service interruptions, extreme market volatility, or temporary suspension of platform access.
15. Professional Advice
Stockity does not provide financial, legal, or investment advice. If you do not fully understand the risks associated with trading, you should consult an independent financial advisor before participating in trading activities.
