Risk Disclaimer
Last Updated: October 15, 2026
Trading foreign exchange (Forex), contracts for difference (CFDs), commodities, equities, and cryptocurrency derivatives involves a substantial level of risk to your invested capital and is not suitable for all investors. There is an inherent possibility that you may sustain a total loss of your deposited funds. You should never trade or risk capital that you cannot afford to lose completely.
1. Financial Leverage & Capital Risk
Leveraged financial instruments allow market participants to open large positions with a relatively small initial margin deposit. While financial leverage can multiply your potential gains, it similarly magnifies your downside exposure. A minor adverse price movement can lead to rapid capital depletion, margin calls, or liquidation (Stop Out) by your broker.
2. Software Technology Only (No Investment Advice)
Cortex Terminal operates exclusively as a software technology platform providing execution automation, charting visualization, and disciplined risk calculators for MetaTrader 5.
- Cortex Terminal is NOT a broker-dealer or regulated financial institution.
- Cortex Terminal DOES NOT accept client deposits or custody funds.
- Cortex Terminal DOES NOT provide trading signals, asset management, or personalized investment advice.
- No indicator, visual level, calculation, or analytics tool within the Platform constitutes a recommendation to buy, hold, or sell any financial instrument.
3. No Guarantee of Profitability or Past Performance
Any historical performance metrics, equity curves, simulated returns, or journal statistics displayed within Cortex Terminal are intended strictly for educational and analytical purposes. Past performance is not indicative of future market results. Market volatility, liquidity changes, and spread widenings can fundamentally impact real trading outcomes.

You acknowledge and agree that you bear sole responsibility for your investment decisions, sizing, trade parameter selection, and continuous verification of active orders in your MetaTrader 5 terminal. If you are uncertain regarding the risks of leveraged trading, you should consult an independent, certified financial advisor prior to opening live positions.
