Risk
Trading foreign exchange 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
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 foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from
an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
Profit and Loss Potential
In any market where a potential for profit exists, there exists also a risk
of loss. None of the information on this site (or any other site), nor any

Benefits and Risks of Leverage
Even though the Forex 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.
