Risk Disclosure
Effective Date: 7 September 2026
This Risk Disclosure explains the principal risks of using the Blitz Trading automated trading service. It should be read together with the Terms of Service. By using the Service, you confirm that you understand and accept these risks.
Trading Involves Substantial Risk
Trading cryptocurrencies and crypto derivatives involves a high degree of risk and is not suitable for every person. You can lose money, up to and including the entire amount of capital you commit. You should only deploy funds that you can afford to lose without affecting your financial wellbeing.
Your Account, Your Control
The Operator never takes custody of your funds. Your capital remains in your own exchange account at all times. The connection used by the Service grants trading access only — it does not grant withdrawal or transfer permission. You remain in control of your account and may adjust, pause, or stop any strategy at any time.
Futures: Liquidation Is Possible
Leveraged (Futures) strategies carry the risk of forced liquidation. While the strategies are designed to absorb significant market volatility, no leveraged system can eliminate the possibility of liquidation, and a position may be liquidated in adverse market conditions. Positions may also remain open for extended periods while a strategy averages into the market.
Spot: No Liquidation, but Capital Can Be Tied Up
Spot strategies use no leverage, so liquidation does not apply by design. However, your capital can remain committed to a position for an extended period while the strategy waits for its target conditions, and the value of the assets held can decline in the meantime.
Markets Move Fast and Can Be Illiquid
Market conditions can change rapidly and without warning, which may impact trading outcomes. High volatility and potential illiquidity in cryptocurrency markets may result in significant price fluctuations, slippage, or the inability to open or close a position in a timely manner.
Technology and Security Risks
Cryptocurrency trading carries inherent technological risks. Exchange downtime or maintenance, network connectivity issues, API failures, blockchain network congestion, and other technical disruptions can delay or prevent order execution. Security vulnerabilities affecting your exchange account or API keys, and hacking incidents targeting exchanges, can also result in losses. You should fully consider these risks before engaging in automated trading.
Regulatory and Legal Changes
Regulatory or legal changes may affect the legality, stability, and operation of cryptocurrency trading in your jurisdiction. You are responsible for staying informed of such changes and for ensuring that your use of the Service remains lawful where you live.
Backtested Figures and Past Performance
Figures presented as backtests or simulations are hypothetical: they do not represent actual trading and have inherent limitations. The published BTC and ETH backtest reports are run on historical tick-level market data. The ETH monthly return series shown in the strategy ROI calculator is a separate estimate approximated from one-minute candles rather than tick-level fills. Recommended strategy presets were designed against historical market data, and the data source and evaluation period differ from preset to preset. The in-app backtest simulates the settings you choose using one-minute candles from a single representative exchange that the Operator selects for that symbol, which may not be the exchange your account is on, covering up to 366 days where data is available. A backtest is only as accurate as the data and the logic it uses, and it cannot predict the future: actual fills, fees, funding and liquidity can differ, and live market conditions may differ materially from any historical simulation. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Strategies You Build Yourself
You may create and modify your own strategy settings, and you may run a backtest on settings you have created. Any settings you configure yourself, and any outcome they produce in simulation or in live trading, are your own responsibility. A backtest of your own settings is not advice, a recommendation, an endorsement, or a prediction by the Operator; the Operator does not review or approve the settings you create and accepts no responsibility for their results. Take particular care when a change makes a simulated result look better, because settings tuned to fit past data often perform worse in live markets. Safety settings are always yours to choose. A strategy specifies the maximum share of your wallet it may use and the Service caps that maximum, but it deliberately sets no minimum, so you can always commit less. Using a smaller share of your wallet is the most direct way to reduce your exposure, and only you can decide how much of your capital to put at risk.
No Guaranteed Returns
The Service is an automated execution tool. It is not a source of guaranteed income and does not constitute financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. No bot, strategy, or system can promise profit, protect against loss, or guarantee any particular outcome.
Your Responsibility
You are solely responsible for assessing your financial situation, investment objectives, and risk tolerance, for your own trading decisions and configuration choices, and for complying with the laws and regulations that apply to you. All trading risks are borne solely by you, and neither the Operator nor any connected exchange assumes liability for your trading actions or their outcomes. If you are unsure whether automated crypto trading is appropriate for your circumstances, you should seek independent professional advice before using the Service.
