Risk Disclosure

1. Why you are reading this

Before you use TradeHookX, you must understand the risks of trading and of automating or copying trades. This Risk Disclosure is part of our Terms of Service. It does not list every possible risk. If anything here is unclear to you, do not trade until you have asked an independent, licensed financial adviser.

2. Leveraged trading is high risk

• Forex, CFDs, metals, indices, crypto and similar products are usually traded with leverage. Leverage makes small price moves cause large gains or losses.
• You can lose your whole deposit quickly. Depending on your broker and your account, losses can exceed your deposit.
• Prices can gap - for example over weekends or around news - so a stop loss may be filled at a much worse price, or not at all.
• Spreads, commissions, swaps and slippage reduce your results, especially for small accounts and frequent trading.

3. No advice, no guarantees

TradeHookX is a software tool. We do not provide financial, investment or trading advice, we do not recommend any instrument, strategy or leader, and we do not check whether trading is suitable for you. Statistics, rankings, examples and calculators on the platform are information only, can be incomplete, and are not a forecast. Nobody - not TradeHookX and not any leader - can guarantee profit.

4. Risks of automation

• The system executes exactly what is configured. A wrong alert, symbol, lot size, multiplier or setting can open trades you did not intend, very quickly and many times.
• Signals can be delayed, rejected, duplicated or missed because of internet, server, TradingView, broker or software problems. Late signals are not executed by design.
• Terminals, cloud servers and the EA can restart, update or stop. While they are offline, signals cannot be executed and open positions are not managed by the system.
• Always keep the ability to manage your positions yourself, directly in MetaTrader 5 or with your broker.

5. Risks of copy trading

• Leaders are independent traders, not employees or representatives of TradeHookX. We do not check their skill, identity, licences or intentions.
• Your results can differ from the leader’s because of a different broker, prices, spreads, slippage, execution speed, account size and currency, minimum lot sizes, margin and your copy settings.
• A leader can change strategy, take larger risks, stop trading or switch a group off at any time.
• A strategy that made money in the past can lose money in the future. Good statistics over a short period can be luck.
• You pay the leader a share of your copied profit for each profitable billing period, even if you later lose money in another period.

6. Account, technology and other risks

• If someone obtains your password, license key or alert message, they could send signals to your account. Keep them private.
• Brokers can change conditions, reject orders, close positions (for example on margin calls) or become insolvent. TradeHookX has no control over brokers.
• Laws on trading, copy trading and signal services differ by country and can change. You are responsible for following the rules where you live.

7. What we ask you to do

• Understand how the products you trade and the platform work before you start.
• Practise first on a demo account.
• Only trade with money you can afford to lose completely.
• Use risk settings, sensible lot sizes and stop losses, and check your account regularly.
• Before following a leader, study their history, risk level and profit share, and start small.

8. Your responsibility

By using TradeHookX you confirm that you have read and understood this Risk Disclosure, that you trade and follow leaders entirely at your own risk, and that TradeHookX is not responsible for any loss you may suffer, whatever the cause.
