Risk Disclosure
Important: trading and investing in cryptoassets, foreign exchange and stocks can result in the loss of some or all of the money you invest. Only invest money you can afford to lose.
1. Purpose of this disclosure
This Risk Disclosure is provided by Syntezos AI to help you understand the material risks associated with using our Platform and with the markets it monitors. It should be read together with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. It does not describe every possible risk, and you should not rely on it as a complete assessment of your personal circumstances.
2. Market risk and volatility
Prices of Bitcoin, Ethereum and other digital assets, currency pairs and listed shares can fall as well as rise, sometimes sharply and within very short periods. Digital-asset markets in particular have experienced extreme volatility and significant drawdowns. Changes in interest rates, economic data, regulation, geopolitical events and sentiment can all move prices unpredictably.
3. Leverage and margin
Some products linked to the markets we monitor are leveraged or margined. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses, and you may lose more than your initial deposit. Margin calls and forced liquidations can occur quickly. Syntezos AI does not itself provide leveraged credit.
4. Limits of AI analytics
The Platform uses automated models and rules to process market information. Models are built on historical and current data and rest on assumptions that may be wrong or may stop working when market conditions change. Data may be delayed, incomplete or inaccurate. Automated tools can behave unexpectedly during outages, flash crashes or periods of low liquidity. Outputs are not guaranteed to be correct, timely or profitable.
5. Projections and calculators
Scenario tools, calculators and illustrative figures shown on the Platform are hypothetical. They are based on simplified assumptions, such as a fixed rate of return over a stated period, and do not reflect fees, taxes, slippage, spreads, funding costs or the timing of real market moves. They are not forecasts, promises or indications of what you will earn. Actual results may be substantially lower than any figure shown, and losses are possible.
6. Past performance
Past performance, whether of an asset, a strategy or a model, is not a reliable indicator of future results. Any historical example is provided for information only.
7. Liquidity and execution
Some assets may be difficult to sell at a fair price, particularly during stress. Orders may not execute at the expected price, and spreads may widen significantly. Where we provide risk-control settings, such as stop levels, these are not guaranteed to limit your losses at the level you specify.
8. Technology, cyber and custody risks
Online platforms, blockchain networks, exchanges and wallets can suffer outages, software errors, hacking, phishing and smart-contract failures. Digital assets held with third parties may be lost if a provider fails or is compromised. You are responsible for protecting your credentials and devices.
9. Regulatory and legal status
Cryptoasset activities and the promotion of such activities in the United Kingdom are subject to rules set by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Regulatory treatment of digital assets and related products may change. Nothing on the Platform should be read as confirmation that any product, service or firm is authorised or approved by the FCA or any other regulator. You can check the FCA Register at register.fca.org.uk before dealing with any firm. Requirements may differ in your country of residence.
10. Tax
Gains and income from digital assets, currencies and securities may be subject to tax, and tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and may change. Syntezos AI does not provide tax advice. Please seek independent professional advice.
11. Concentration and diversification
Concentrating funds in a single asset, market or strategy increases risk. Diversification does not eliminate the risk of loss, but it can reduce the impact of adverse events affecting one position.
12. Your responsibilities
You should consider your financial situation, investment objectives, experience and attitude to risk before making any decision. You should understand every product you use, keep records for tax and compliance purposes, and seek independent financial, legal or tax advice where appropriate. If you are unsure whether an investment is suitable for you, do not proceed.
13. No guarantee
Syntezos AI does not guarantee any return, income, level of protection or outcome. Statements on the Platform about risk controls describe features that help you manage exposure; they do not remove the risk of loss.
