Capital is at risk
Trading strategies can lose money. Leverage and capital amplification can magnify the economic effect of market movements, and losses can occur rapidly during volatile conditions. A low historical drawdown does not establish a maximum possible future loss.
Past performance
Historical results, including independently tracked results, do not guarantee future returns. Backtests, simulations, repeated monthly-return scenarios and hypothetical calculations have additional limitations and should not be treated as live or expected performance.
Amplification and leverage
Capital amplification and broker leverage can describe different layers of a trading arrangement. Both can increase risk, but they should not automatically be treated as the same thing or multiplied together without understanding the programme structure.

Execution and market conditions
Actual results can differ because of spreads, slippage, liquidity, execution speed, position sizing, account settings, market gaps and differences between a tracked strategy account and a follower account.
Third-party and operational risk
Automated trading can depend on strategy providers, brokers, copy-trading infrastructure, payment providers and other third parties. Strategy risk, broker risk, custody risk, technology risk and withdrawal risk should be considered separately.
Fees and losses are not symmetrical
A performance fee can reduce profitable outcomes while an equivalent trading loss may still be borne in full. Readers should compare net returns after fees with the full downside of the strategy structure.
