⚠️ HIGH RISK WARNING: Trading foreign exchange (Forex), contracts for difference (CFDs), and cryptocurrencies on margin carries an extremely high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Before deciding to trade these instruments, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.

2. Trading Risks
2.1 High Risk of Loss
Trading leveraged products such as Forex, CFDs, and cryptocurrencies carries a high degree of risk to your capital. These products may not be suitable for all investors. You should ensure you understand all risks involved and seek independent advice if necessary.
2.2 Leverage Risk
The high degree of leverage that is often obtainable in trading can work against you as well as for you. Leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains. You could lose more than your initial deposit, and you may be required to deposit additional funds at short notice to cover losses.

Cryptocurrencies are highly volatile and speculative. Additional risks include:
- Extreme price volatility and unpredictable market movements
- Regulatory uncertainty across different jurisdictions
- Security risks including hacking and theft
- Potential total loss of invested capital
- Limited or no investor protections
- Technology risks and potential platform failures
