Risk Disclosure

1. Purpose of this disclosure

This Risk Disclosure describes material risks associated with using the Volatitan platform, including its automated trading bots, risk management controls, market analysis and illustrative calculators. It should be read together with our Terms of Service. It does not disclose every risk and is not a substitute for independent professional advice.

2. Market volatility

Prices of Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptoassets can change significantly within very short periods, sometimes by large percentages in a single day. Markets may move against your positions faster than you can respond. Forex and stock prices may also be volatile and affected by economic, political and company-specific events.

3. Possibility of total loss

You may lose some or all of the funds you commit to trading. Losses can exceed expectations and can occur even when risk controls are active. There is no guarantee that any strategy, bot configuration or stop-loss will prevent losses in all market conditions.

4. Automated trading bots

Trading bots execute strategies based on predefined rules and historical or real-time data. Automated systems can malfunction, respond unexpectedly to unusual market conditions, be affected by data errors, or continue trading when you expect them to stop. Past performance of any bot, backtest or strategy does not indicate future results. You remain responsible for supervising any automated activity on your Account.

5. Illustrative calculators and forecasts

Figures shown by calculators or in marketing material are hypothetical examples based on assumed rates and inputs. They do not represent actual results, are not forecasts, and do not guarantee any profit. Actual outcomes may be materially lower, including zero. Fees, spreads, slippage and taxes are not necessarily reflected in illustrations.

6. Leverage and margin

Where leveraged products are available, leverage magnifies both gains and losses. A small adverse price movement can result in losses greater than the margin you have deposited, and positions may be closed automatically if margin requirements are not met. You should not use leverage unless you fully understand these mechanics and can bear the resulting losses.

7. Liquidity and execution

Some markets may become illiquid, and orders may not execute at the price you expect or at all. Slippage can occur during volatile periods, and stop-loss orders are not guaranteed to fill at a specified level. Exchange outages or congestion may prevent you from closing positions when you wish.

8. Technology, cyber and custody risks

The Services rely on internet connectivity, software, third-party exchanges, wallets and data providers. Failures, delays, hacking, phishing, loss of private keys or credentials, and other security incidents may cause loss. Cryptoassets held in self-custody wallets may be irrecoverable if access is lost. We take reasonable steps to protect our systems but cannot eliminate these risks.

9. Regulatory status in the United Kingdom

Cryptoassets are not generally covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme or the Financial Ombudsman Service, and most cryptoasset activity is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority in the same way as traditional financial products. Financial promotions relating to cryptoassets are subject to specific FCA rules, and regulatory requirements may change. Tax treatment of gains and losses depends on your individual circumstances and may change over time.

10. Counterparty and third-party risk

Exchanges, custodians, payment processors and other providers may fail, become insolvent, freeze withdrawals, or act improperly. We are not responsible for the solvency or conduct of third parties, and recovery of funds held with them may be limited or impossible.

11. Your responsibilities

• Understand each product and strategy before using it.
• Set position sizes and loss limits consistent with your financial situation.
• Monitor your Account and any automated activity regularly.
• Keep credentials secure and enable available security features.
• Seek independent advice where you are uncertain about the suitability of any investment.

12. No guarantee and contact

Nothing on the Volatitan platform guarantees profits or protects against losses. If you have questions about the risks described here, contact us at [email protected] or on +44 20 7946 9156. Our address is High Holborn 154, EC3M 4AJ Edinburgh, GB. This disclosure may be updated from time to time, and the latest version will always be available on this page.
