Risk Disclosure Statement

Introduction

This Risk Disclosure Statement is provided by Arvo Fx ("the Company," "we," "us") and is intended to inform you, the client, of the significant risks associated with trading in leveraged financial instruments such as Forex (Foreign Exchange) and Contracts for Difference (CFDs). This notice cannot and does not disclose all of the risks and other significant aspects of such products. You should not engage in trading these products unless you fully understand their nature and the extent of your exposure to risk.

1. Nature of Leveraged Trading

1.1. Leverage and Margin

Leveraged trading means that you can trade positions larger than the amount of money in your account. This is often referred to as "trading on margin." For example, a leverage of 100:1 means you can control a position of $100,000 with just $1,000 of margin. While leverage can significantly amplify your potential profits, it can also amplify your potential losses just as quickly. A small market movement against your position can result in a substantial loss.

1.2. Volatility

The financial markets we offer can be highly volatile. Prices can fluctuate rapidly and over wide ranges due to unforeseen events or changes in market conditions. This volatility increases the risk of loss. There is no guarantee that you will be able to close a position at your desired price.

2. Specific Product Risks

2.1. Contracts for Difference (CFDs)

A CFD is an agreement to exchange the difference in the value of a particular instrument between the time the contract is opened and the time it is closed. When trading CFDs, you are speculating on the future price movement of an underlying asset; you do not acquire ownership of the underlying asset itself (e.g., you do not own the physical shares or commodities).

2.2. Foreign Exchange (Forex)

The foreign exchange market is subject to risks including, but not limited to, changes in political conditions, government intervention, and other factors that can substantially affect the price or liquidity of a currency.

3. Technical and Platform Risks

3.1. Liquidity Risk

In certain market conditions, such as rapid price movements or low trading volumes, it may be difficult or impossible to execute a trade or liquidate a position at your desired price. This may result in losses.

3.2. Slippage

Slippage is the difference between the expected price of a trade and the price at which the trade is actually executed. This can occur during periods of high volatility and may work for or against you.

3.3. No Guarantees of Profit

Any opinions, news, research, analyses, prices, or other information contained on this website are provided as general market commentary and do not constitute investment advice. Arvo Fx will not accept liability for any loss or damage, including without limitation to, any loss of profit, which may arise directly or indirectly from use of or reliance on such information. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
