Risk Disclosure Statement
Trading financial instruments involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. You can lose more than your initial investment when using leverage. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Please read this entire disclosure carefully and seek independent advice if necessary before trading any financial instrument.
1. Nature of TTerminal
The TTerminal platform is operated by Signal Core s.r.o. (IČO 24460354), registered at Rybná 716/24, Staré Město, 110 00 Praha 1, Czech Republic, Commercial register C 441474, Městský soud v Praze. TTerminal is a technology platform that provides market data, analytics, signals, news, and educational content. TTerminal does not hold client funds, does not execute orders, and does not act as a broker, dealer, market maker, or investment adviser. Any partner brokers referenced on the Service (such as PuPrime or prop-trading firms such as Dolvero) are independent entities regulated under their own jurisdictions; TTerminal is not responsible for their operations, financial standing, or compliance.
2. General market risk
All financial markets are subject to risks including but not limited to:
- Price volatility caused by macroeconomic events, geopolitical events, central bank policy, earnings releases, and market sentiment
- Liquidity risk - inability to enter or exit a position at the desired price
- Slippage - the difference between the requested and executed price
- Gaps - prices may move sharply between market sessions or after news events
- Counterparty risk - the risk that your broker or counterparty fails to meet its obligations
3. Leverage and margin
Many of the markets covered by TTerminal can be traded with leverage (FX, CFDs, futures, certain crypto products). Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. Adverse price movements may quickly exceed your account balance, resulting in losses greater than your initial deposit. Some brokers may apply margin calls or close positions automatically when equity falls below a threshold.
4. CFD-specific risks
Contracts for Difference (CFDs) are complex leveraged instruments. According to data published by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), between 74% and 89% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford the risk of losing your money.
5. Cryptocurrency risks
Cryptocurrencies and crypto derivatives are extremely volatile. Specific risks include:
- Sharp, sustained drawdowns of 50% or more within hours
- Operational failures at exchanges, custodians, or wallet providers
- Regulatory uncertainty - rules may change rapidly and retroactively
- Cyber-attack risk including theft of funds, smart contract exploits, and chain reorganisations
- Limited or no investor compensation schemes
6. Futures and derivatives
Futures and other derivatives carry leverage, expiry dates, contract specifications, and margin requirements that may not be intuitive to novice traders. Some positions can be subject to forced liquidation at expiry or when a contract goes into delivery.
7. Equity and ETF risks
Equities and ETFs are exposed to company-specific risks, sector concentration, dividend variation, currency fluctuations (for foreign holdings), and market-wide drawdowns. Past returns of an index or fund do not predict future returns.
8. Risks specific to TTerminal's content
The Service offers proprietary scores (CAESAR, MARS, TITUS, PLUTO, FORTUNA, and others), narratives, signals, screeners, and forecasts. These outputs are informational tools, not recommendations to buy or sell. They are derived from machine-learning models, statistical inference, and aggregated public data sources, all of which carry well-known limitations:
- Models are trained on historical data and may not anticipate regime changes
- News sentiment scores can be biased by source quality and clickbait headlines
- Volatility regimes shift; backtests are not guarantees of forward performance
- Data feeds can be delayed, gapped, or revised retroactively
- Signals may conflict with one another and require trader judgement to interpret
9. No guarantee of profit
No element of the Service - including historical performance, backtests, signal accuracy statistics, model scores, or testimonials - constitutes a promise or guarantee of profit. You may lose all of the funds you allocate to trading.
10. Tax obligations
Trading gains and losses may have tax consequences in your country of residence. TTerminal does not provide tax advice. You are responsible for reporting and paying any taxes due, and we recommend consulting a qualified tax advisor.
11. Suitability
You should only trade with capital you can afford to lose. Trading is not suitable if:
- You do not understand how leverage and margin work
- You are using borrowed funds, emergency savings, or retirement assets
- You cannot tolerate large fluctuations in your account equity
- You are subject to legal or regulatory restrictions on trading
12. Acknowledgement
By using TTerminal you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted this Risk Disclosure. You agree that TTerminal is not responsible for any losses you incur from trading or investment decisions. If you do not accept this Risk Disclosure, you must not use the Service.
