Futures Trading & Risk Disclaimer
This Risk Disclaimer applies to Perodin Trade OS (“Trade OS”), a market-analysis software product operated by Clean Clicks LLC.
Trade OS does not guarantee profitable trades, prevent losses or eliminate market risk. You are solely responsible for every trading decision you make.
Substantial Risk of Loss
Trading futures, options on futures and other leveraged financial products involves substantial risk and may not be appropriate for every trader.
Futures positions may move rapidly in response to economic releases, market liquidity, geopolitical events, order flow, volatility, unexpected news or other market conditions.
You may lose some or all of the money allocated to trading.
Depending on the instrument, brokerage arrangement, margin requirements and market conditions, losses may exceed the amount initially committed to a trade or account.
Leverage Magnifies Risk
Futures contracts are commonly traded using margin, which allows a trader to control a position whose notional value may be significantly greater than the capital deposited.
This leverage can amplify both gains and losses.
A relatively small market movement may therefore produce a disproportionately large gain or loss relative to the amount of capital committed.
Trade OS Is a Decision-Support Tool
Trade OS analyzes and displays market information using rules, technical indicators, market structure, timeframes, momentum, economic-event awareness and other analytical conditions.
Trade OS outputs may include items such as:
- higher-timeframe trend states;
- EMA relationships;
- market-phase descriptions;
- pullback states;
- momentum classifications;
- setup scores or grades;
- action states;
- economic-event risk information; and
- alerts or notifications.
These outputs are analytical information only. They are not instructions requiring you to enter, exit or hold any position.
No Individualized Trading Advice
Trade OS does not provide advice based on your personal financial circumstances.
Clean Clicks LLC does not know your income, assets, debts, financial obligations, trading experience, objectives, risk tolerance, brokerage account size or ability to absorb losses.
Accordingly, Trade OS should not be interpreted as a recommendation that any particular trade, strategy, market or risk level is appropriate for you.
No Guarantee of Profit
No representation is made that Trade OS will produce profits, avoid losses or achieve any specific trading result.
A dashboard reading such as:
- SETUP READY;
- LONG READY;
- SHORT READY;
- BUYERS;
- SELLERS;
- BULLISH;
- BEARISH;
- A-grade setup;
- high setup score; or
- any similar classification
does not mean that the market will move in the indicated direction or that a trade will be profitable.
Market Conditions Can Change Instantly
Financial markets are dynamic.
A market condition identified by Trade OS may change immediately after an update because of price movement, volatility, order flow, news, liquidity changes, economic data or other events.
A setup that appears favorable at one moment may become invalid shortly afterward.
Users must independently evaluate current market conditions before making any trading decision.
Data May Be Delayed or Incorrect
Trade OS may depend on third-party market platforms, data feeds, webhooks, servers, internet connections, economic calendars, APIs or other technical infrastructure.
Information may occasionally be:
- delayed;
- stale;
- incomplete;
- duplicated;
- inaccurate;
- interrupted; or
- unavailable.
A displayed “LIVE” status should not be interpreted as a guarantee that every underlying input is instantaneous or exchange-direct.
Economic News and Market Risk
Trade OS may display scheduled economic events, release times, countdowns or market-risk classifications.
These tools are intended to provide general awareness of scheduled events.
Economic schedules may change, releases may be delayed or rescheduled, additional events may occur without notice and unexpected news may affect markets at any time.
A Trade OS “CLEAR” market-risk state does not mean that trading conditions are safe or that volatility cannot occur.
Alerts May Fail
If Trade OS provides alerts, notifications, emails or other signals, delivery is not guaranteed.
Alerts may be affected by:
- internet outages;
- mobile-device settings;
- email filtering;
- notification permissions;
- third-party outages;
- webhook interruptions;
- server failures;
- software errors; or
- data delays.
You should never rely on an alert service as your only method of monitoring an open position or managing trading risk.
Hypothetical, Simulated and Backtested Results
Trade OS may from time to time display or discuss hypothetical, simulated, historical, backtested or reconstructed trading examples.
Such results have inherent limitations.
Simulated results do not represent actual trading and may not fully reflect real-world conditions such as:
- slippage;
- commissions;
- fees;
- liquidity;
- execution delays;
- market impact;
- margin constraints;
- emotional decision-making; or
- the difficulty of following a system during actual losses.
Past Performance
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Any prior winning trade, profitable period, favorable setup, screenshot, account result, demonstration, case study or historical example should not be interpreted as evidence that similar results will occur in the future.
Execution Is Your Responsibility
Trade OS does not currently place trades in your brokerage account.
You are solely responsible for:
- determining whether to enter a trade;
- determining position size;
- determining stop-loss placement;
- determining profit targets;
- managing open positions;
- monitoring margin requirements;
- confirming order execution;
- closing positions; and
- accepting all resulting gains or losses.
Brokerage and Prop-Firm Rules
Brokers, exchanges, proprietary trading firms and trading platforms may impose their own rules regarding margin, trailing drawdowns, daily loss limits, position sizing, trading hours, news trading, account inactivity, prohibited strategies, order execution and withdrawals.
Trade OS does not determine or guarantee compliance with those rules.
You are responsible for understanding and complying with the rules that apply to your own trading account.
Technical Indicators Are Not Certain
Indicators such as moving averages, trend classifications, momentum measurements, volatility measures, support or resistance, market structure and other technical tools are mathematical or analytical interpretations of market data.
They do not predict future market behavior with certainty.
Different traders, systems or platforms may calculate or interpret similar indicators differently.
Risk Capital
Futures trading should generally be undertaken only with capital you can afford to lose without impairing your ability to meet ordinary living expenses, emergency needs or other important financial obligations.
Do not trade with money required for rent, mortgage payments, food, medical expenses, education, emergency savings or other essential needs.
Independent Professional Advice
Where appropriate, you should consider consulting qualified financial, legal, tax or other professional advisers regarding your personal circumstances before engaging in futures trading.
No Broker or Exchange Relationship
Unless expressly stated otherwise, Clean Clicks LLC and Perodin Trade OS are not your broker, futures commission merchant, exchange or custodian.
Trade OS does not hold or control your brokerage funds through the public dashboard.
References to brokers, exchanges, charting platforms, futures products or proprietary trading firms do not necessarily indicate an endorsement, affiliation or partnership.
