Risk Disclosure
Trading involves substantial risk. This disclosure helps you understand the risks so you can make informed decisions.
Last updated: July 22
1. General risk warning
Trading in cryptocurrencies, contracts for difference (CFDs) and other financial instruments carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. You should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. Around 70% of retail traders lose money. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
2. Volatility risk
Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile. Prices can move sharply in a short period, and you may quickly gain or lose a significant portion of your capital. Automated systems can react to volatility, but they cannot eliminate it.
3. No guaranteed returns
No trading system, including AI-driven automation, can guarantee profits. Any examples of returns, testimonials or performance figures shown on this website are illustrative and do not represent guaranteed outcomes.
4. Leverage risk
Some third-party providers offer leveraged products. While leverage can amplify profits, it can equally amplify losses, potentially exceeding your initial deposit. Ensure you fully understand how leverage works before using it.
5. Technology and execution risk
Online trading depends on internet connectivity, software and third-party systems. Technical failures, delays or interruptions may affect the execution of trades. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access to the platform.
6. Regulatory and jurisdictional risk
The availability and legality of certain products vary by country. It is illegal to promote commodity options, including prediction contracts, to US residents unless traded on a CFTC-registered exchange or exempted by law. The UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) enforces policy PS20/10, prohibiting the sale, marketing or distribution of CFDs to UK retail consumers. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of any service is lawful in your jurisdiction.
7. Third-party providers
SelvoBay connects users with third-party trading providers. We do not control their services, terms or execution quality. Please review the risk disclosures and terms of any provider you use.
8. Tax responsibilities
You are responsible for understanding and meeting your local tax obligations, including any capital gains tax arising from trading activity.
9. Seek advice
If you are in any doubt about the risks involved, you should seek independent financial, legal or tax advice before trading.
