The National Futures Association (NFA) and CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission), the regulatory agencies for the forex and futures market in the United States, require that customers be informed about potential risks in the forex and trading related markets (see the information below).

Risks Associated with Forex and Trading

Trading  is a challenging and potentially profitable opportunity for educated and experienced investors. However, before deciding to participate in the Forex/trading market, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience and risk appetite. Most importantly, do not invest money you cannot afford to lose.

There is considerable exposure to risk in any foreign exchange or trading transaction. Any transaction involving currencies involves risks including, but not limited to, the potential for changing political and/or economic conditions that may substantially affect the price or liquidity of a currency or tradeable market.

Moreover, the leveraged nature of FX and trading could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. If you fail to meet any margin call within the time prescribed, your position will be liquidated and you will be responsible for any resulting losses. Investors may lower their exposure to risk by employing risk-reducing strategies such as 'stop-loss' or 'limit' orders.

There are also risks associated with utilizing an internet-based deal execution software application including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware and software.

Trading on margin 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 invest in foreign Exchange or trading of any nature you should carefully consider your investment objectives,
 level of experience, and risk appetite.

The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts. Trading means that any market movement will have an equally proportional effect on your deposited funds. This may work against you as well as for you.

Profit and Loss Potential
In any market where a potential for profit exists, there exists also a risk of loss. None of the information provided by Andy Thompson of www.forexjackal.com nor any information or education provided to the client by any means assures that the client will make money in any trading environment. The information contained in this document does not constitute investment advice. We will not accept liability for any loss  or damage, including without limitation to, any loss of profit, which may arise directly or indirectly from use of or reliance on such information.

Benefits and Risks of Leverage
Even though the forex and trading related market offers traders the ability to use a high degree of leverage, trading with high leverage may increase the losses suffered. Please use caution when using leverage in trading or investing.

Hypothetical Performance or Back-Tested Results
HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE INFERRED OR SHOWN. THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS & THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM. ONE OF THE
LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK & NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE MANY OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM OR SYSTEM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS -- ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.
