CFDs carry a very high level of risk, especially when they are highly leveraged (the higher the leverage of a CFD, the more risky). They are not standard, standardized products, and the various CFD providers have their own fees, terms and conditions. Therefore, they are generally not suitable for most retail investors.

Liquidity risk affects your ability to trade. One of the risks of CFDs is not being able to trade them at the time you want them (to prevent a loss, or to make a profit).

Execution risk is related to the fact that trades may not take place immediately. For example, there may be a time lag between the moment your order is placed and the moment it is executed.

There are risks associated with using an online trading system to execute trades. These risks include, but are not limited to, failure or failure of hardware, systems, and Internet connectivity.

Information about the past performance of a financial instrument does not guarantee current and/or future performance, and the use of historical data does not constitute a reliable or safe expectation of future return, as well as return to counterpart data from futures contracts.

measures to prevent a person from engaging in abnormal activities so that the relevant person can use the Services or additional investment activities;
