Risk disclosure.
The substantial risks of trading in CFDs, foreign exchange, and digital assets — set out in full, so that you can read them before you decide.
General risk warning
Trading in contracts-for-difference, foreign exchange, digital assets, and other leveraged financial instruments carries a substantial degree of risk. These instruments are not suitable for every investor. Capital deployed may be partially or entirely lost. You should carefully consider whether such trading is appropriate for you in light of your financial circumstances and investment objectives, and you should never deploy capital whose total loss would meaningfully affect your financial situation.
Key risks
- Market risk. Prices may move adversely and rapidly, particularly during periods of low liquidity or macroeconomic stress. Even well-diversified portfolios can experience meaningful drawdowns.
- Liquidity risk. Positions may not be exitable at preferred prices, particularly in less liquid instruments or during periods of market stress. The bid-offer spread may widen materially.
- Leverage risk. The use of margin amplifies both gains and losses. A small adverse price move can result in a loss greater than the capital initially deployed if leverage is being used.
- Technology risk. System failures, internet outages, or third-party outages may affect execution. We maintain redundant infrastructure and operate failover procedures, but no system is immune to failure.
- Regulatory risk. Changes in applicable law may affect trading conditions, instrument availability, or platform availability in your jurisdiction. Some jurisdictions may restrict access to certain asset classes.
- Counterparty risk. Subscriber capital is held in segregated accounts at regulated prime brokers, but counterparty failure remains a theoretical risk that no system can entirely eliminate.
- Operational risk. Human error, fraud, or operational failure may affect execution. We mitigate these through layered controls and annual SOC 2 audit, but they cannot be eliminated.
Performance is not promised
No representation is made by Nexilon Varentis as to future investment returns. Historical performance, whether of the platform or of any specific instrument, is not indicative of future results. The platform exists to apply rigour and discipline to the deployment of subscriber capital; it does not exist to promise outcomes.
Suitability self-check
Before opening a subscription, you should be able to answer "yes" to all of the following:
- I have a clear understanding of what a contract-for-difference, foreign-exchange transaction, or digital-asset position is, and what can happen to the value of each.
- I am deploying capital that I can afford to lose in full without meaningful effect on my financial situation.
- I understand that no algorithm, however sophisticated, anticipates every market regime.
- I have read this risk disclosure in full and consulted independent professional counsel where appropriate.
