Risk Disclaimer

The Nature of Cryptocurrency Markets

You must understand the inherent risks of cryptocurrency markets before engaging in any trading activities. These include, but are not limited to:

• Extreme Volatility: Prices can fluctuate dramatically in short periods.
• 24/7 Markets: Unlike traditional markets, crypto markets never close, which can lead to gaps and unexpected price movements.
• Regulatory Uncertainty: The legal and regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies is still evolving and can change without notice.
• Market Manipulation: These markets can be susceptible to manipulation, including pump-and-dump schemes and wash trading.
• Technical Risks: Risks of software bugs, hardware failures, and malicious attacks are always present.
• Liquidity Risk: Some assets may have low liquidity, making it difficult to enter or exit positions at a desired price.

Specific Risks of Leveraged Trading

Specific risks associated with leveraged trading include:

• Liquidation Risk: If your margin falls below the maintenance margin requirement, your position will be forcibly closed, resulting in a total loss of your collateral.
• Funding Costs: Holding leveraged positions often incurs funding payments, which can be significant.
• Slippage: Large orders or volatile market conditions can lead to slippage, where your order is filled at a worse price than expected.
• Gap Risk: The market can 'gap' over your stop-loss level, resulting in a larger loss than anticipated.
