1. Forex and CFD Risk
Forex and CFDs are complex leveraged products, and small price movements can cause large losses; you may lose all of your principal. Market liquidity, trading sessions, margin requirements, and liquidation rules may change rapidly.
2. EA Automated Trading Risk
EAs place orders automatically according to preset rules, but they do not eliminate market risk. Model failure, incorrect parameters, overfitting, execution delays, duplicate orders, and software malfunctions can all cause losses beyond expectations. Users must personally check parameters, positions, and operating status.
3. Martingale and Grid Strategy Risk
Martingale, position-adding, and grid strategies may continue to increase positions in unfavorable market conditions, leading to rapid margin consumption and large drawdowns. Historically stable short-term results do not prove that a strategy can withstand one-sided markets, gaps, or long-term trends. Such strategies should not be described as capital-guaranteed or low-risk.
4. Differences Between Backtesting and Live Trading
Backtesting uses historical data and assumptions and may not reflect real spreads, commissions, slippage, liquidity, latency, order rejections, and trading costs. Backtests, demo accounts, and live records must be understood separately, and no historical result represents future performance.
5. Slippage and Gap Risk
Stop-loss, limit, and market orders may not be filled at the expected price. During major news, market open, market close, or insufficient liquidity, slippage, widened spreads, failure to execute, or gaps may occur, and actual losses may exceed the preset amount.
6. VPS and Network Failure Risk
EA operation depends on computers, VPS, networks, broker servers, and authorization services. Power outages, network interruptions, VPS restarts, server delays, incorrect time settings, or authorization verification failures may all lead to missed orders, duplicate orders, or inability to close positions. Users should prepare manual contingency plans and should not rely entirely on automated systems.
7. Rebates Are Not Equal to Profit
Rebates are usually only a return of eligible trading costs, not investment returns, interest, or a guarantee of profit. Rebates cannot offset losses, reduce leverage risk, or make up for liquidation losses, and they should not be a reason to increase trading frequency and position size. Actual eligibility, rates, and settlement are subject to the verified plan and broker rules.
