Risk Disclaimer
Last Updated: February 2026
General Risk Warning
Trading financial instruments — including but not limited to foreign exchange (Forex), stocks, options, commodities, cryptocurrencies, and contracts for difference (CFDs) — carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all individuals. Before deciding to trade any financial market, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. You should be aware that you could lose some or all of your initial investment. You should not trade with money that you cannot afford to lose.

Hypothetical and Simulated Performance
HYPOTHETICAL OR SIMULATED PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE CERTAIN INHERENT LIMITATIONS. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
Any examples, demonstrations, or chart analyses shown in our educational content are used solely for instructional purposes to illustrate analytical concepts and techniques. They should not be interpreted as predictions of future market performance or as a guarantee that similar results can be achieved.
Leverage and Margin Risk
Many financial markets offer leveraged trading, where a small deposit controls a much larger position. The high degree of leverage available in leveraged trading can work both for and against you. Leverage amplifies both potential gains and potential losses. A relatively small market movement can lead to proportionately larger losses, potentially exceeding your deposited funds. If the market moves against your position, you may be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. If you fail to meet any margin call, your position may be liquidated at a loss, and you will be responsible for any resulting deficit.
Market Risk
Financial markets — including Forex, stocks, options, commodities, and cryptocurrencies — are volatile by nature. Prices can fluctuate rapidly due to economic events, geopolitical developments, changes in interest rates, regulatory changes, and other factors beyond anyone's control. Past market conditions are not indicative of future market conditions.
Technology and Connectivity Risk
There are risks associated with utilizing internet-based trading systems, including but not limited to the failure of hardware, software, and internet connectivity. Urban Forex is not responsible for communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions, or delays you may experience when using any electronic trading system, regardless of cause.
