Risk Disclosure

The failure modes come first here, before any framing: what the program does wrong on its own, then what your setup adds. Of the seven documents this is the one the desk most wants read to the end.

  1. P-4.1

    How the program loses money

    • its logic was fitted to conditions that have already happened, and the market does not hand the same ones back;
    • gaps, thin books, requotes and slippage run straight through a planned stop and out the other side;
    • it never flinches — a unit that has the market wrong keeps taking the same position at full size until a human intervenes;
    • every program carries defects, this one included.
  2. P-4.2

    How your own setup adds to it

    • pulling a unit while it sits under water books the loss it was still carrying;
    • a machine that sleeps, reboots, fills its disk or loses its line leaves whatever is open to look after itself;
    • a risk input pushed past the deployment protocol is a configuration the desk has never run and cannot vouch for;
    • your broker’s spread, commission, swap and fill are not the desk’s, and the whole of that gap lands in your result.
  3. P-4.3

    The base case is loss

    Assume the money goes. Part of a balance, all of it, and at some brokers more than was deposited. Leverage scales both directions without caring which: units here are profiled for 1:30 and under, and a run of losers at 1:30 still empties an account. Fund this with money whose disappearance would change nothing about your week.

  4. P-4.4

    What is on you

    Read the unit before you run it. Demo it at your own broker, not at the desk’s. Size it to a loss you can take. Keep the terminal up. Stay inside your law and inside your broker’s account terms. Any of those you are not willing to do: automated trading is the wrong product, from this desk or from anyone.

  5. P-4.5

    What a past account proves

    That the past happened. A published account, where one exists at all, is a record and not a forecast.

  6. P-4.6

    What the money actually bought

    Permission to run a compiled file on an account of your own. The desk takes no custody, opens no position, manages nothing, and can neither see nor close anything you have running.

  7. P-4.7

    Nobody here is advising you

    No page on this site is financial, investment, legal or tax advice. AlgoTeraX is not a broker, an exchange, a fund or an adviser and holds no licence to act as one. For your own position, pay somebody who is licensed to have an opinion on it.

  8. P-4.8

    Read with

    P-5 Benchmark Disclosure and P-1 Sale Terms. Disagree with any line above: do not arm.
