Risk Disclosure

Trading and investing in equities, derivatives and other instruments carries a high risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. Technical indicators are descriptive tools — they can and do give false signals.

• No indicator predicts the future; all can whipsaw, lag or fail, especially at turning points and in choppy markets.
• Backtested or illustrative results do not indicate future performance.
• Leverage in derivatives magnifies both gains and losses; small moves can cause large percentage swings.
• Over-optimising indicator settings to past data (curve-fitting) routinely fails in live markets.
• Studies by regulators, including SEBI, have found that a large majority of individual F&O traders lose money.

Never trade with money you cannot afford to lose, and use indicators to manage risk — not as a guarantee. This site is educational only; see our SEBI Disclaimer.
