Risk Statement
Foreign Exchange is a volatile and risky market, the implications of which are only fully appreciated by risk tolerant, experienced and sophisticated investors or established institutional clients. As with all markets it is possible to lose all or part of a capital base in FX without sound risk management and capital preservation principles.
A detailed Disclaimer is presented below and we insist all clients read this and sign an agreement to confirm they have read and fully understood it before proceeding.
Every trader in every market in the world makes bad trades and incurs losses, and we do mean EVERY trader. The key to success in this market is the maintenance of discipline, the acceptance that losses are an integral part of the trading day, and a strategy that is capable of delivering a consistent overall performance over time by ensuring that the inevitable losses are comfortably outstripped by the gains achieved.
Against this backdrop we agree maximum drawdown limits which are set at the brokerage so that any losses are automatically limited, and for selected clients we can also run a Hedging FX Options strategy which will limit the downside and sometimes even generate a profit if and when the market moves against us. The general diversification of trading strategies across our global network also creates a natural smoothing of the volatility curve.
It is essential to note that although the potential rewards of trading the FX markets are undoubtedly attractive, it must not be overlooked that losses are also subject to the same volatility and our traders work hard to maintain a tight grip on the markets. FX is for serious and experienced traders and is not to be taken lightly. Osiris FX constantly strives to minimise all risks for the benefit of our clients.
