Risk notice

Trading on Vestvelda places real capital at risk. Orders are routed to a live venue and executed against real market prices. You can lose some or all of the money you deposit. Do not deposit funds you cannot afford to lose entirely.

Vestvelda is running in simulated execution. Prices come from live market feeds, but orders are filled by our own matching model rather than sent to an exchange, and the trader results shown are modelled from historical data rather than audited live track records. Nothing you trade here buys or sells a real asset, and no trading position you hold has value outside this system.

1. Status of this service

[Legal entity name] is [authorised and regulated by [regulator] under registration number [number] / not authorised as an investment firm in [jurisdiction]]. [If not authorised: this means you do not have access to [ombudsman scheme] and your funds are not covered by [compensation scheme].]

2. Nothing here is advice

Vestvelda provides execution only. Nothing on the platform — including screens, rankings, signals, mirrored positions or any figure displayed anywhere in the interface — is a personal recommendation, an assessment of suitability, or advice on whether any instrument or strategy is appropriate for you. No assessment of your circumstances, experience or objectives has been carried out. Every decision to open, size or close a position is yours alone.

3. Market risk

Prices move against positions without warning, and the assets available here are volatile. Markets can gap through your intended exit, so a position can close at a materially worse price than the level you set. Crypto markets trade continuously, including while you sleep, and have no daily limits, circuit breakers or closing auction to interrupt a move.

4. Leverage

Where leveraged products are used, losses are magnified against the capital committed and can exceed the amount deposited. Positions may be closed out automatically if margin requirements are not met, at whatever price is available at that moment, without prior contact.

5. Execution

An order is an instruction, not a guarantee. Between submission and execution the price can move, so the fill you receive may differ from the price displayed when you clicked. Orders may fill partially, or not at all. Spread, commission, funding and financing costs reduce returns and are charged whether a position is profitable or not. Stop orders are not guaranteed to execute at the stop price.

6. Technology and availability

The platform depends on networks, exchanges, data feeds and third-party infrastructure that can fail or be interrupted. During an outage you may be unable to open, modify or close positions, and market prices may move substantially in the meantime. Positions remain live and remain your exposure throughout any such period.

7. Mirroring another trader

Mirroring copies another account's positions into yours. It does not transfer responsibility. You remain the account holder, you bear the full loss on every copied position, and no one is managing your money or acting in your interest when you use it. The trader whose positions you copy owes you no duty and may close, reverse or size a position for reasons that do not apply to your circumstances.

Performance figures shown against traders on this platform are backtested or hypothetical results over the stated window. They were not produced by trading real capital and no user achieved them. Hypothetical results benefit from hindsight, do not bear execution costs or slippage, and carry none of the pressure that affects real decisions. They should not be read as a track record or used to compare traders.

8. Custody and counterparty risk

Client funds and assets are held by [custodian] [in segregated accounts / commingled]. If a custodian, venue or counterparty fails, your funds may be lost or frozen and may not be recoverable. [No deposit guarantee or investor compensation scheme applies to balances held on this platform.]

9. Past performance

Past performance does not indicate future results, whether it is your own, another trader's, or a strategy's. A published return stated without its maximum drawdown, its time period and its costs tells you almost nothing about the risk that produced it.

10. Tax

Gains and losses may create tax obligations in your jurisdiction. Vestvelda does not provide tax advice and does not calculate, withhold or report your liability unless legally required to. Records are available for export from the account.

11. Guarantees

No return offered on this platform is guaranteed. Any party — here or elsewhere — promising assured profit from trading or copy trading is misrepresenting the product.

12. Acknowledgement

Opening an account and depositing funds confirms that you have read this notice, that you accept the risks described, and that you are trading on your own judgement.
