Compliance and risk

Risk disclosure and disclaimer

Forex, CFD and copy trading can lead to substantial losses. Please understand leverage, execution, liquidity and third-party dependencies before deciding whether to use the relevant software or services.

Important: risk information is not investment advice, a promise of returns or legal advice. Trading decisions and suitability assessments should be made by you and licensed professionals.

Leverage risk

Leverage lets a smaller margin control a larger position, and magnifies losses as well as gains. In fast markets, margin can become insufficient quickly and trigger a forced close.

Higher leverage sharply narrows the price range an account can absorbOvernight swap and spread continuously affect holding costsForced liquidation can occur at a time you did not anticipateSet leverage appropriately for account size and strategy

Slippage, spread and execution risk

A copy trading system replicates instructions, not guaranteed prices. Volatility, thin liquidity, network delay and server conditions can all cause slippage or partial fills.

Fills may be better or worse than the master account priceSpreads widen and liquidity thins around news and market opensNetwork or server delays affect replication timingPartial fills and rejections can desynchronise master and follower accounts

Third-party execution and platform dependency

Orders are ultimately handled by broker servers, liquidity providers and payment institutions. FXCopyNex provides software and technical support and does not control third-party quotes, fills or settlement.

Broker risk rules, stop outs and quote rules affect outcomesLiquidity depth determines execution quality on larger ordersPayments and transfers are handled by the broker or licensed providersThird-party outages can affect replication and reporting

Past performance and strategy risk

Historical performance, backtests and demo account data do not represent future returns. Strategies can stop working, drawdowns can exceed expectations, and any promise of returns should be treated as misleading.

Backtests often omit real slippage, spreads and liquidity limitsDemo accounts usually assume idealised executionA strategy may behave very differently in another market regimeDo not trade with borrowed funds or money you cannot afford to lose
