Risk Warning

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Please read this risk warning carefully before using Acorn Trading services.

Trading financial instruments involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors. This risk warning outlines the key risks associated with trading and using our copy trading services.

1. High Risk of Loss

Trading in financial markets carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite.

Key Points:

  • • You may lose more than your initial investment
  • • Past performance is not indicative of future results
  • • Market conditions can change rapidly
  • • There is no guarantee of profit

2. Leverage Risks

Trading on margin involves high risk and is not suitable for all investors. The degree of leverage available can lead to large losses as well as gains.

  • Higher leverage magnifies both profits and losses
  • A small market movement can result in substantial losses
  • You may be required to deposit additional funds (margin call)
  • Positions may be forcibly closed at a loss

3. Copy Trading Risks

Copy trading involves replicating of the trades of other traders. This carries additional risks:

  • The trader you copy may perform poorly
  • Historical results may not be representative
  • Risk management strategies may not align with yours
  • Technical issues may delay or prevent trade execution
  • The copied trader may change their strategy

4. Psychological Risks

Trading can be emotionally challenging and may lead to:

  • Stress and anxiety from market volatility
  • Fear of missing out (FOMO) leading to impulsive decisions
  • Revenge trading after losses
  • Overconfidence after winning streaks

5. Technical and Operational Risks

  • Internet connectivity issues may affect trade execution
  • Platform downtime or technical failures
  • Data delays or inaccuracies
