Risk Disclosure
Important: Trading and investing in crypto-assets can result in the loss of some or all of your capital. Only commit funds that you can afford to lose. Read this disclosure in full before using any Finantrix Forge feature.
1. Market volatility
Bitcoin, Ethereum and other digital assets have historically experienced rapid and substantial price movements, including declines of more than half of their value within short periods. Prices can be affected by macroeconomic events, changes in sentiment, regulatory announcements, protocol changes and large holders of assets. Scenario figures displayed on our platform cannot predict these movements.
2. Leverage and amplified losses
Where leveraged products such as margin, contracts for difference or derivatives are offered by any third party, leverage magnifies both gains and losses. Losses can exceed your initial deposit in some circumstances. Forex and stock trading can also involve leverage risk. You should understand the margin requirements and liquidation rules of any product before entering a position.
3. Limitations of AI-generated analysis
Our market analysis is produced by automated models trained on historical and current data. Models can be wrong, can misinterpret unusual conditions, and may fail to reflect information that has not yet been recorded. Model outputs may change without notice as data sources and methods are updated. Outputs must not be treated as certainties or as a substitute for your own judgement.
4. Liquidity and execution
Some digital assets have limited trading volume. In stressed markets you may be unable to sell at the price you expect, or at all. Orders may be delayed, partially filled, or executed at prices materially different from those displayed. Exchange outages and network congestion can also prevent timely action.
5. Technology and security risks
- Private keys, passwords and recovery phrases, if lost or exposed, may result in permanent loss of assets.
- Smart contracts and blockchain networks may contain defects or be exploited.
- Phishing, malware and social engineering attacks are common in the digital-asset sector.
- Internet connectivity failures, software bugs and third-party service interruptions may affect access to the platform.
6. Regulatory and legal risks
The legal status of crypto-assets varies between jurisdictions and is evolving. New rules, including those in Ireland and across the European Union, may restrict or change the services available to you. Some products may not be permitted in your country of residence. It is your responsibility to confirm that your activity is lawful where you live.
7. Tax considerations
Gains and income from digital assets may be taxable. Tax treatment depends on your personal circumstances and may change over time. Finantrix Forge does not provide tax advice. Please consult a qualified tax adviser about your obligations.
8. No guarantee and no personal advice
Nothing on the platform is an offer, solicitation or recommendation to buy or sell any asset. Calculators and examples illustrate mechanics only and do not promise profit, income or capital protection. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. We have not assessed your financial objectives, experience, knowledge or capacity to bear losses.
9. Responsible use
We encourage you to diversify, to avoid borrowing money to invest, to set your own loss limits, and to keep records of your transactions. Consider seeking independent financial advice before making decisions that affect your financial wellbeing. If you feel that trading is affecting your health or relationships, please seek support from a qualified professional.
