Risk Disclosure

1. No Investment Advice

Micro/Trade is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, or fiduciary. Nothing on the Service — including AI-generated signals, charts, strategy templates, or aggregated statistics — constitutes investment, legal, tax, or financial advice. You are solely responsible for your trading decisions and outcomes.

2. Risk of Loss

Trading securities, cryptocurrencies, derivatives, and other financial instruments involves a substantial risk of loss. You could lose all of the funds you deposit at an exchange, and in margin or leveraged positions you could lose more than the amount you deposit. The vast majority of retail traders lose money.

3. High-Frequency & Algorithmic Trading-Specific Risks

The Service is designed to produce a high volume of small ("micro") trades. This style introduces specific risks including:

• Transaction costs: exchange fees, spreads, and slippage compound quickly and can erase any nominal profit.
• System failures: outages, latency, internet connection issues, or exchange downtime can cause missed exits, stuck orders, or unintended exposure.
• Market volatility: sudden price moves can cause stop-loss orders to fill far from their target price.
• Strategy decay: a strategy that worked in backtests or paper trading may fail in live markets due to changing market conditions, liquidity, or your own size impact.
• Software bugs: automated systems can behave unexpectedly. You are responsible for monitoring and intervening when necessary.

4. Cryptocurrency-Specific Risks

• Crypto markets trade 24/7 with no circuit breakers; positions can move dramatically while you sleep.
• Regulatory status of cryptocurrencies and exchanges varies by jurisdiction and changes frequently.
• Cryptocurrency networks and exchanges can suffer hacks, forks, freezes, and insolvency.
• "Stablecoins" can de-peg.

5. Paper Trading vs. Live Trading

Paper-trading simulations on the Service use simulated capital and idealized fills. Live trading involves real money, slippage, partial fills, network latency, exchange API rate limits, fees, and many other frictions that simulations do not fully model. Paper performance is not predictive of live performance.

6. AI Signals Are Probabilistic, Not Predictive

AI-generated "Alpha Signals" describe statistical patterns derived from anonymized aggregate platform data and large-language-model reasoning. They are not predictions and do not have any guaranteed accuracy. Aggregate platform data may be biased, noisy, or non-representative. Treat signals as one of many inputs in your own research.

7. Tax Responsibility

Trading generates taxable events. You are solely responsible for tracking your gains, losses, and tax obligations and for filing required returns in your jurisdiction. Consult a qualified tax professional.

8. Suitability

Only trade with funds you can afford to lose entirely. Consider your financial situation, experience, objectives, and risk tolerance. If you do not understand a feature or risk, do not use it.

9. No Guarantee of Continuity

The Service may be modified, paused, or discontinued without notice. We are under no obligation to preserve any data, strategy, or feature.

10. Acknowledgment

By using the Service — and in particular by enabling Live trading mode — you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Risk Disclosure and accept all risks described herein. If you do not agree, do not use Live mode and do not provide exchange API keys.
