Financial Risk Warning

Trading and investing involve risk

The value of investments can fall as well as rise, and you can lose money — including your entire deposit. Past performance does not indicate future results. No review, score or comparison on this site changes those facts.

Leverage can cause rapid losses

Leveraged products — CFDs, margin trading, futures and similar instruments — amplify both gains and losses. Positions can be liquidated quickly in moving markets, and depending on the product and your jurisdiction, losses can reach or exceed your deposited funds. A large proportion of retail accounts trading leveraged products lose money.

Bonus credit is not withdrawable cash

Promotional bonuses and trading credit are typically conditional: they carry trading-volume requirements, time limits and withdrawal restrictions, and can be removed if conditions are not met. Treat any bonus as conditional credit governed by its terms — never as money you own — and read the provider's current terms before depositing.

Crypto assets can be highly volatile

Crypto assets can move dramatically in short periods and can become illiquid. Depending on your jurisdiction, they may sit outside investor-compensation and deposit-protection schemes entirely, and custody arrangements vary widely between platforms. You should be prepared for the possibility of losing the entire amount you commit.

Information, not personal advice

Everything published by Trading Quarters is general information and commentary. It does not consider your financial situation, experience, objectives or risk tolerance, and it is not personal financial, investment, legal or tax advice. If you need advice, consult a licensed professional in your jurisdiction.

Check current terms and your local eligibility

Providers change fees, terms and availability, and services that are lawful and available in one country may be restricted or unavailable in another. Our articles state when their facts were last verified, but you should always confirm the current terms on the provider's official site and check what applies in your country of residence before opening or funding an account. See also our methodology for what we can and cannot verify.
