Risk Disclosure

1. Futures risk

Futures and derivatives are leveraged products. Small market movements can produce large gains or losses. Volatility, gaps, illiquidity, slippage, platform failures and rapid price changes can make losses occur faster than expected. Only risk capital should be used in any live futures trading. Nothing on this website is personalized financial, commodity-trading, investment, tax or legal advice.

2. Simulation disclosure

YL Trades evaluation and simulated funded-stage accounts are intended to operate in a simulated environment unless a separate written live-account agreement expressly states otherwise. Simulated trades do not involve actual market execution and may not reflect liquidity, slippage, order priority, psychological pressure or other conditions of live trading.

Hypothetical or simulated performance has inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading, and no representation is made that any account will achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

3. Displayed results and examples

Charts, balances, profit-and-loss figures, testimonials, examples and educational scenarios may be hypothetical, simulated, illustrative or selectively presented. They are not promises, typical-results statements or guarantees of future success. Any paid or incentivized endorsement must be clearly disclosed, and individual experiences may not represent those of other users.

4. Future evaluation fees

YL Trades is not currently accepting evaluation fees. If paid evaluations launch, a fee would purchase access to an assessment service. It would not be a deposit, trading balance or investment and would not become withdrawable capital. A customer could lose the entire fee by failing an evaluation, violating a rule, not using the account or otherwise becoming ineligible under the applicable agreement.

5. Account size and buying power

Labels such as “$25K,” “$50K” or “$100K” describe nominal simulated buying power. They do not mean that YL Trades has transferred that amount to the customer, that the customer owns it or that it is held for the customer in cash or securities.

6. Payout risk

Payout eligibility depends on the written program rules, eligible simulated profits, minimum trading days, identity and tax verification, compliance review and fraud controls. Reaching a profit target does not guarantee a payout. Proposed payout maximums are limits, not expected outcomes. Most participants should not assume they will pass an evaluation or receive any payout.

7. Drawdown and rule risk

Daily loss, maximum drawdown, consistency and other rules can cause an account to fail even if it previously showed profits. Trailing calculations can change as an account reaches new highs. Users are responsible for understanding every rule before trading.

8. Technology and data risk

Simulated prices and fills may differ from live markets. Internet failures, latency, delayed or incorrect data, rejected orders, vendor outages, maintenance and software errors may affect an account. Third-party platforms and data providers control their own availability and terms.

9. No assurance of live funding

Passing a simulated evaluation does not guarantee placement of company capital, employment, a brokerage relationship or transfer to a live account. Any live opportunity would require separate approval, agreements, risk controls and applicable regulatory and provider requirements.

10. Regulatory status

YL Trades has not launched paid operations. Its final CFTC, NFA, state and vendor obligations are under review. No statement on this draft website should be interpreted as a claim of registration, membership, exemption or regulatory approval.

11. Acknowledgment

Before paid launch, customers will be required to affirmatively acknowledge the final risk disclosure and program rules. If you do not understand or accept these risks, do not purchase or use the service.
