Risk Disclosure
Last updated: 8 October 2026
Trading financial instruments on margin carries a high degree of risk. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade, 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.
1. Leveraged Trading
Vertex24 offers leveraged trading products including forex, contracts for difference (CFDs) and other margin-based instruments. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. A small market movement can result in a disproportionately large loss relative to your initial deposit.
2. Losses Exceeding Deposits
In certain market conditions, including periods of high volatility or low liquidity, your losses may exceed your initial deposit. You may be required to deposit additional funds to cover such losses. You should only trade with capital you can afford to lose entirely.
3. Market Risk
Financial markets are subject to numerous factors including economic data, geopolitical events, central bank policy and market sentiment. Prices can move rapidly and unpredictably. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
4. Currency Risk
If your account is denominated in a different currency from the instruments you trade, exchange rate fluctuations will affect your returns. A favourable move in the underlying instrument may be offset by an adverse currency movement.
5. Cryptocurrency Risk
Cryptocurrency markets are particularly volatile and operate around the clock. Prices can fluctuate dramatically within short periods. Cryptocurrency trading carries additional risks including regulatory uncertainty, technological vulnerabilities and market manipulation.
6. Execution Risk
While we strive to execute orders promptly and at the best available price, market conditions may result in slippage, re-quotes or delayed execution. Stop-loss orders may not execute at the specified price during volatile or illiquid market conditions.
7. Technology Risk
Platform availability depends on internet connectivity, third-party data feeds and system infrastructure. Technical failures, connectivity issues or data delays may affect your ability to trade or manage positions. The Company is not liable for losses arising from technology failures beyond its reasonable control.
8. No Financial Advice
Nothing on the Vertex24 platform constitutes investment advice, a recommendation, or a solicitation to buy or sell any financial instrument. All trading decisions are made solely by you. You should seek independent financial advice if you are unsure whether trading is suitable for you.
9. Suitability
Leveraged trading is not suitable for all investors. You should ensure that you fully understand the risks involved and, where necessary, consult an independent financial advisor before trading.
10. Restricted Jurisdictions
Vertex24 does not provide services to residents of the United Kingdom. The services provided by Vertex24 may not be available in other jurisdictions where such services are prohibited by law. It is your responsibility to ensure that your use of the platform complies with the laws and regulations of your country of residence.
