Risk Disclosure

Trading in financial instruments, including foreign exchange, involves substantial risk. The value of investments can go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invest, and in some cases you may lose your entire investment.

Strong Investments provides an automated trading tool — it does not guarantee profits or protect against losses. No trading system, algorithm, or strategy can guarantee returns. Any claims of past performance are not indicative of future results.

Leverage Risk: FX trading typically involves leverage, meaning you can control a large position with a relatively small amount of capital. While leverage can amplify profits, it equally amplifies losses. A small adverse market movement can result in losses that exceed your initial deposit.

Market Risk: Currency markets are influenced by numerous factors including economic data, geopolitical events, central bank decisions, and market sentiment. These factors can cause rapid and unpredictable price movements.

Liquidity Risk: Under certain market conditions, it may be difficult or impossible to execute trades at desired prices. This can occur during periods of high volatility, low liquidity, or market disruptions.

Gap Risk: Currency prices can "gap" — moving sharply between price levels without trading at intermediate prices, particularly at market open or during major news events. This can result in trades being executed at prices significantly different from expected levels.

Currency Risk: If you are trading in a currency different from your base currency, exchange rate fluctuations may affect the value of your positions and any profits or losses.

Algorithm Risk: The Strong Investments trading agent uses algorithmic strategies to make trading decisions. These algorithms are based on historical data and mathematical models that may not accurately predict future market behaviour. Market conditions can change in ways that the algorithm has not been designed to handle.

Technology Risk: Automated trading depends on technology infrastructure including internet connectivity, server availability, and API connections. Technical failures, outages, or delays can prevent trades from being executed or closed at intended prices.

Execution Risk: There may be delays between the Agent generating a trade signal and the trade being executed on your OANDA account. During volatile markets, this delay can result in significant price slippage.

Over-Optimisation Risk: Trading algorithms may perform well on historical data but fail to deliver similar results in live market conditions. This is known as "curve fitting" or "over-optimisation".

System Failure: In the event of a system failure, open positions will remain in your OANDA account. You are responsible for monitoring and managing your positions independently if the Service becomes unavailable.

You should only trade with money you can afford to lose. Do not trade with funds you need for essential living expenses, debt repayments, or other financial obligations.

Consider the following before using the Service:

- Can you afford to lose the entire amount you plan to trade with?

- Do you understand how leveraged FX trading works?

- Have you considered seeking independent financial advice?

- Are you comfortable with the possibility of significant losses?

If you answered "no" to any of these questions, FX trading may not be appropriate for you.

Strong Investments does not provide financial advice, investment advice, tax advice, or legal advice. The Service is a software tool that executes trades based on algorithmic analysis. It is not a regulated financial service, investment manager, or financial adviser.

Nothing on our website or in our communications should be construed as a recommendation to trade, invest, or take any particular financial action. You should seek independent professional advice before making any investment decisions.

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Any performance data, statistics, charts, or returns shown on our website or marketing materials are historical and do not guarantee future performance.

Simulated or hypothetical performance results have inherent limitations. Unlike actual trading records, simulated results do not represent real trades. They may also under- or over-compensate for the impact of certain market factors such as liquidity and slippage.
