Risk Disclosure

AxisFx provides you with this Notice to help you understand the risks that might arise when trading CFDs, stocks, crypto and Forex. This Notice is no exhaustive, and you need to bear in mind that it doesn’t contain all the risks and aspects involved. You should carefully read this Notice in conjunction with our Terms and Conditions and other documents and information available to you through our website, in light of your personal circumstances, before deciding to open an Account and trade with us. We recommend that you seek independent advice if you’re unsure.
Past performance is not an indication of future performance. The value of financial instruments may fall as well as rise. When investing in financial instruments there is a risk that you may lose some or all of your original investment. You should consider whether investing in financial instruments is suitable for you in light of your individual circumstance and taking account of your investment objectives, experience and financial position.
Do not invest with money you cannot afford to lose. OTC trading carries a high degree of risk and due to fluctuations in value, the customer may not get back the amount invested.
Trading CFDs and FX Options entail risk and could result in the loss of your capital. These products may not be suitable for all investors. Do not invest in any such product unless you fully understand and are willing to assume the risks associated with it.
Trading CFDs on leverage means you can secure a significantly larger exposure to an underlying asset for a relatively small Initial Margin. However, the use of leverage magnifies the size of your trade, which means your potential gain and your potential loss are equally magnified. Therefore, you should closely monitor all of your open positions to manage the risk of large losses.
We will further require you to ensure that the amount in your Trading Account exceeds the Maintenance Margin in order to keep a Transaction open. Therefore, if our price moves against you, you may need to provide us with substantial additional Margin, at short notice, to maintain your open trades. If you do not do this, we will be entitled to close one or more or all of your trades. You will be responsible for any losses incurred.
Derivative markets generally can be highly volatile. So, the risk that you’ll incur losses when you trade in derivative Contracts can be substantial. High volatility means the markets can be very difficult to predict. This means that you shouldn’t consider any Contract offered by us or any other financial services provider to be a “safe” trade. We pass on any pricing re-quotes from our Liquidity Providers directly to you, without any bias towards the direction the pricing has moved in.
We run the Platform in an online environment. This means there may be issues with you placing Orders or with your Contracts being executed due to internet, system or network issues on your end. Because we can’t promise that the internet will work error-free, we can’t accept liability for the risks associated with the operation of our Platform. For this reason, you need to be mindful that Platform risks are inherent in every Contract that you trade with us.
You understand that commissions, fees and other charges may be applicable, and as such these charges will affect/reduce the profit (if any), or increase the loss. Minimum charges can be relevant for smaller trade sizes and there are also charges associated with overnight financing of positions. We offer several different trading accounts that feature different fees and costs.
The Customer should seek independent expert advice if he is in any doubt as to whether he may incur any tax liabilities. The Customer is hereby warned that tax laws are subject to and may change from time to time. Company will not be under any duty to provide the Customer with any legal, tax or other advice relating to any Transaction.
