1. Introduction

Any reference to "ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED", "the Company", "we", "us", "our" refers to ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED, a company duly incorporated and existing under the laws of Saint Lucia, bearing Registration Number 2024-00150, with its registered office located at Ground Floor, The Sotheby Building, Rodney Village, Rodney Bay, Gros-Islet, Saint Lucia.

This Risk Disclosure Statement (the "Statement") outlines the inherent risks associated with the Products and Services offered via the ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED Trading Platform. Prior to opening an account with ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED or engaging in any trading activity, clients must carefully review and fully comprehend this Statement. Clients must acknowledge that they should never trade without a clear understanding of the associated risks or beyond their ability to absorb potential losses.

2. Nature of Leveraged Products

  • The financial instruments offered by ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED (the "Company") are complex and sophisticated products that involve a significant risk of rapid loss due to the use of leverage. These products may not be suitable for all investors. Clients are required to assess whether they fully understand the mechanics of these products and whether they possess the financial capability to bear the potential losses associated with trading in these instruments. In the event that the client is uncertain, the Company strongly recommends that they seek independent professional advice prior to engaging in any trading activities.
  • Leveraged products are transacted on an off-exchange (Over-the-Counter, OTC) basis, with the Company acting as the sole counterparty to all client trades. As such, all transactions conducted with ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED are settled exclusively through the Company. The availability of these services may be subject to restrictions depending on the client’s jurisdiction of residence and local regulatory requirements.
  • Clients acknowledge and agree that they are not entitled to receive physical delivery of the underlying asset of any leveraged product they trade, nor do they have any legal or beneficial rights, claims, or interests in the underlying asset itself. The client's exposure is solely to the financial instrument associated with the underlying asset, and not the asset itself.

3. Market Risks

  • ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED provides leverage to clients, enabling them to open positions by depositing only a fraction of the total trade value. Consequently, even small movements in the market can result in significant and potentially amplified changes in the value of a client's position. Clients acknowledge and accept that leverage increases both the potential gains and the potential risks associated with their trades.
  • Market prices are subject to rapid and unpredictable fluctuations that may arise from various factors, including but not limited to economic announcements or other external events, which may impact prices during both regular and off-hours trading. Adverse price movements may trigger automatic stop-out mechanisms, leading to the liquidation of positions.
  • As a result of market volatility, ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED may be unable to execute client instructions at the specified price. Clients further acknowledge that stop-loss orders, while designed to limit potential losses, are not guaranteed. Such orders will be executed as market orders upon activation, and the execution price may differ from the price at which the stop-loss order was placed.
  • Past performance, historical simulations, or predictive models do not constitute a guarantee or assurance of future performance. Clients acknowledge that the value of investments can fluctuate in both positive and negative directions, and the market price of any asset may increase or decrease over t ime, potentially leading to a loss of capital.
  • Certain financial instruments may experience periods of reduced liquidity, which may hinder a client's ability to obtain timely or accurate information regarding the value of their positions or the associated risks. Clients are advised that in such instances, it may be difficult to execute trades or close positions at favourable prices due to diminished market activity or demand.

4. Margin and Liquidation Risks

  • Clients are strongly advised to fully understand the nature and implications of margin trading, including the associated margin requirements. A margin deposit is required in order to open leveraged positions, and such deposit must meet the minimum margin threshold as determined and communicated by ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED (the "Company"). Clients acknowledge and accept that margin trading entails a significant level of risk, and they assume full responsibility for ensuring that their margin deposits are sufficient to support their trading activities.
  • Clients will be provided with information regarding margin requirements and any applicable fees prior to initiating any trades. This information is available in the Fees Section of the Company’s website and will be made available to clients in advance of trading. Margin requirements are determined based on several factors, including but not limited to the underlying asset, the applicable leverage ratio, and the size of the position being opened.
  • The Company does not bear any obligation to notify clients of critical margin utilization levels or of potential margin calls. It is the sole responsibility of the client to monitor their margin status and ensure that they maintain sufficient margin levels to avoid the risk of liquidation of their positions. Clients acknowledge that failure to maintain adequate margin may result in the automatic liquidation of their positions, without prior notice from the Company.

5. Cryptocurrency-Related Risks

  • The cryptocurrency market is inherently volatile and subject to significant risks, including the potential for substantial and rapid fluctuations in value. Clients are advised that investments in cryptocurrencies carry the risk of loss, and they should only invest in or trade cryptocurrencies that they are financially prepared to lose in their entirety. Price movements in cryptocurrencies are highly unpredictable, and there exists the risk that one or more cryptocurrencies may lose all or a substantial portion of their value.
  • The liquidity of cryptocurrency markets may vary significantly, with certain assets experiencing lower liquidity and thinner markets, which can exacerbate volatility. The Company does not guarantee the availability of an active market for the purchase, sale, or trade of cryptocurrencies or related products. Additionally, cryptocurrencies may be delisted by exchanges or trading platforms without prior notice, which may impact the client's ability to trade or liquidate positions.
  • ULTRATREND FX CAPITAL LIMITED shall not be held liable for any losses resulting from the accidental or incorrect sending of cryptocurrency to an incorrect wallet address during the withdrawal process. Clients are solely responsible for ensuring that the wallet address they provide for withdrawal is accurate and valid.
  • Advances in cryptographic technologies or developments such as quantum computing may present risks to the security of cryptocurrencies, including the potential for theft or loss of funds. The Company does not accept responsibility for any such risks or losses arising from technological advancements that may affect the security of cryptocurrencies.
  • The legal status of cryptocurrencies may differ across various jurisdictions, and the legal classification or regulatory treatment of cryptocurrencies may evolve over time. Clients are solely responsible for understanding the legal status, regulatory framework, and tax implications of cryptocurrencies in their respective jurisdictions. The Company makes no representations regarding the legal, regulatory, or tax implications of cryptocurrency trading in any jurisdiction.
  • Clients are solely responsible for ensuring that the acquisition, holding, and disposal of cryptocurrencies is legal within their jurisdiction. Clients agree not to engage in any cryptocurrency related activities if such activities are prohibited by the laws or regulations of their jurisdiction.
