  1. Types of Risks

3.1. Trading risks - risks associated with the trading process:

3.1.1. Market instability (including sudden changes in the price of the underlying asset); The Client should be aware that various economic events can lead to sharp changes in asset values. When such an event occurs at market close, the price of the underlying asset at market open may differ significantly from the price at market close. In addition, the Client may lose the opportunity to close an open trade at a favorable price. Such cases can result in both significant losses and substantial profits.

3.1.2. Market volatility; Changes always occur in an open market. The more dynamic the market, the faster the price of a financial instrument changes, and therefore the greater the potential profit. It should be understood that highly volatile assets are not only characterized by a high rate of return but also pose a greater risk of capital loss.

3.1.3. Liquidity of financial instruments; The value of assets is influenced by a huge number of factors, ranging from supply and demand to economic and political events on national or international scales. The Client must adapt to constantly changing market conditions and understand that there is always a possibility of not receiving the planned profit for one reason or another.

3.1.4. The Client understands and acknowledges that the processing time for their order (instruction) in unstable market conditions (conditions other than normal) always increases.
