Risk Disclosure
Updated over 4 months ago

All content published and distributed by ETX Funding and its affiliates (collectively, the “Company”) is to be treated as general information only. None of the information provided by the Company or contained herein is intended as investment advice, an offer or solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, or a recommendation, endorsement, or sponsorship of any security, company, or fund.

Simulated Trading Environment: We offer virtual simulated accounts where live market conditions are simulated. Any reference to ‘funded’ used on our website or in any of our terms and conditions refers to simulated funding only. Use of the information contained on the Company’s websites is at your own risk, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability for any use or misuse of such information. Nothing contained herein is a solicitation or an offer to buy or sell futures, options, or forex. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Limitations of Hypothetical Performance: Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Because the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs are also designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

Risk of Trading: It is extremely difficult to succeed long term in trading. Trading involves significant risk, and you should be aware of these risks before engaging in trading activities. Characteristics such as thin trading, illiquidity, and small trading volumes can exacerbate the failure rate of traders. Many investors fail to account for these risks when formulating trading strategies.

Personal Financial Risks: Never risk more than you are willing to lose. Losses are rarely limited to the funds in your accounts – it is possible to lose more than is in your account and then be legally responsible for any deficiency. Short-term trading can be extremely risky. Losses can happen fast, so you should not risk money that you cannot afford to lose. No matter how confident you are in your trading strategy or system, losses can and will happen. You should always be prepared for this possibility.

Funding and Capital Use: For this reason, never fund short-term or leveraged trading activities with retirement accounts, student loan proceeds, second mortgages, emergency funds, or funds set aside for education, home ownership, living expenses, etc. Please never place a trade in a live trading environment unless you fully understand and accept all the risks that come with it.

Testimonials and Performance: Testimonials appearing on the Company’s websites may not be representative of other clients or customers and are not a guarantee of future performance or success. Futures trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the investor’s initial investment. Only risk capital—money that can be lost without jeopardizing one’s financial security or lifestyle—should be used for trading, and only those individuals with sufficient risk capital should consider trading.

Legal and Regulatory Compliance: CFTC Rule 4.41 – Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Because the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

Company Commitment: ETX Funding is committed to helping traders become the best they can be. We understand trading has highs and lows and that the majority of traders will fail. We provide a simulated environment to educate traders and mitigate some of the risks associated with live markets. Let’s all help the trading community be the best it can be and support each other in knowing when to say stop.
