Forex (foreign exchange) trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. Here is a generic Forex risk disclosure statement that brokers often provide to their clients to ensure they understand the risks involved:
Forex Risk Disclosure Statement
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.
Risk Associated with Leverage:
Leverage in Forex trading can lead to substantial losses as well as gains. High leverage means a higher level of risk. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss in excess of your deposited funds even if a stop loss is used. Therefore, you should not speculate with capital that you cannot afford to lose.
Risk of Loss:
Trading foreign exchange involves a substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Losses can exceed your initial investment. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Only trade with money that you are prepared to lose.
