Risk Disclosure

General Trading Risk

Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Software & Automation Risk

Indicators and automated strategies can generate losing signals and losing trades. Automated strategies may submit, modify, or exit orders according to programmed rules. Connectivity, configuration, market conditions, slippage, latency, data quality, and user settings can affect results. Test software in simulation before live use.

Technical Issues & Limitation of Liability

SIT Trading Systems is not responsible for losses or missed trades caused by software errors, malfunctions or defects, or by other technical issues, including platform or broker outages, internet or connectivity problems, data feed errors or delays, computer or hardware failures, order execution or rejection errors, or incorrect settings. Software may not perform as expected in all market conditions. Customers are responsible for monitoring their platform, accounts and open positions at all times.

Open Positions

Customers are responsible for managing their open positions at all times, including closing or flattening any open position before turning off a bot, and for following the rules of their prop firm, broker, or account. Turning off a bot stops new trades but does not close an open trade. SIT Trading Systems is not responsible for losses, rule violations, or account closures that result from open positions.

Test in Simulation First

SIT strongly recommends testing every indicator and automated strategy in simulation before using it with real money. Simulation lets you learn the settings, watch how signals and orders behave, and confirm that everything works on your own platform and data. Simulated trading does not represent actual trading, and live results can differ because of slippage, liquidity, latency, and order execution.

No Investment Advice

SIT Trading Systems provides software tools only. Nothing on this website or in an SIT product is individualized investment, financial, tax, or legal advice, and no product guarantees profits.

Not an Offer or Solicitation

Nothing on this website is an offer or solicitation to buy or sell futures, forex, options, or any other financial product.

No Guarantee of Results

SIT does not guarantee that any product will produce profits or avoid losses, and there is no guarantee that you will earn money using any SIT product. SIT does not publish trading performance results, backtests, or account statements. Any results you see from your own testing are hypothetical unless they come from live trading, and neither predicts future results.

Hypothetical & Simulated Results

Any hypothetical, simulated, backtested, replay, demonstration, or example results are not actual trading results. Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
