Financial & Trading Risk Disclaimer
Last Updated: September 12, 2026 • Mandatory CFTC & SEC Regulatory Disclosures
Trading futures, options, foreign exchange (Forex), cryptocurrencies, and equities involves significant financial risk and is not suitable for all investors. Please review these essential risk disclosures prior to using GhostEdgeX.
CFTC RULE 4.41 — HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE DISCLAIMER
Mandatory disclosure required by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission
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.
Testimonials, equity curves, reconstructed session graphs, and backtest results appearing on this website or in the software application may not be representative of the experience of other clients or users and are not guarantees of future performance or success.
1. Substantial Risk of Loss in Futures & Derivatives
Futures, options, and margin trading carry a high level of risk due to leverage. A small price movement against your position can result in a disproportionate loss of capital, including the loss of more than your initial deposit in certain margin accounts.
You should never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose. If you do not fully understand the risks of leverage, tick values, market gaps, overnight holds, and slippage, you should seek independent financial advice from a licensed fiduciary.
2. Not Registered Investment, Financial, or Tax Advice
GhostEdgeX is solely a software developer and technology provider. Neither GhostEdgeX nor its creators, affiliates, or contributors are:
- Registered as a Commodity Trading Advisor (CTA) with the CFTC or NFA.
- Registered as a Broker-Dealer or Investment Adviser with the SEC or state regulators.
- Financial advisors, tax professionals, or fiduciary wealth managers.
No content, metric, behavioral flag, automated review note, or AI Coach response produced by GhostEdgeX constitutes an endorsement, recommendation, or solicitation to buy, sell, or hold any financial instrument, contract, or security.
3. Session Replay & Market Data Feeds
The interactive Trade Replay feature relies on continuous CME futures data feeds (e.g. Yahoo Finance public market bars) and reconstructed broker execution records. You should be aware of the following technical considerations:
- Continuous vs. Front-Month Contracts: Continuous charts (such as `NQ=F` or `ES=F`) adjust for contract roll periods and may display slight basis differentials from individual contract expirations (such as `MNQU6` or `NQH6`).
- Execution Timing & Fill Slippage: Historical 1-minute bars reflect the aggregated price range during that interval. Replay markers simulate execution placement but cannot replicate microsecond order queue positions, partial fills, or bid/ask spread dynamics during high-volatility news events.
4. Behavioral Leak Detector & AI Coach Limits
GhostEdgeX incorporates heuristic algorithms to identify patterns such as revenge trading, contract sizing spikes, and decision fatigue. These tools are strictly educational mirrors designed to encourage self-reflection and discipline. They are not medical, psychiatric, or psychological diagnoses of mental state or trading aptitude.
5. Assumption of Sole Responsibility
By using GhostEdgeX, you irrevocably agree that you are solely responsible for your own trading research, financial risk management, and order execution. You agree that GhostEdgeX will not be held liable for any trading losses or monetary damages resulting directly or indirectly from your use of the platform.
