Risk Disclosure & Disclaimer

1. Nature of the Service

QuantaEdge provides algorithmic trade signals generated by automated systems. These signals are based on quantitative analysis of market data, regime detection, and statistical models. The Service is an informational tool — not a licensed investment advisor, broker-dealer, or financial planner.

2. Not Investment Advice

Nothing provided by QuantaEdge constitutes investment advice, financial advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security or financial instrument. All content is for informational and educational purposes only.

You should consult with a qualified, licensed financial advisor before making any investment decisions. QuantaEdge LLC is not a registered investment advisor (RIA) and does not hold any securities licenses.

3. Trading Risks

• Market risk: Securities prices can decline rapidly due to market conditions, economic events, or company-specific factors.
• Options risk: Options are complex instruments. Buyers may lose the entire premium paid. Sellers face potentially unlimited losses on uncovered positions.
• Futures risk: Futures trading carries a high level of risk due to leverage. Small market movements can result in large gains or losses relative to the margin deposited.
• Leverage risk: The use of leverage amplifies both gains and losses.
• Liquidity risk: Some securities may be difficult to sell at a fair price, especially during periods of market stress.
• Technology risk: Signal delivery may be delayed or interrupted due to system failures, network issues, or third-party outages.
• Model risk: Algorithmic strategies are based on historical patterns that may not repeat. Models can underperform or fail in novel market conditions.

4. Paper Trading vs Live Trading

Key differences between paper and live trading:

• Paper trades assume ideal fills at mid-price; live trades experience slippage
• Paper trading does not account for market impact of orders
• Simulated results do not include all commissions and fees
• Emotional factors in live trading are not captured in simulations
• Liquidity constraints may prevent execution at displayed prices

5. No Guaranteed Returns

Past performance is not indicative of future results. There are no guaranteed returns.

Hypothetical or simulated performance results have inherent limitations:

• They are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight
• They do not reflect actual trading decisions or emotional factors
• No representation is made that any account will achieve similar results
• There are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical and actual results

6. Your Responsibility

By using QuantaEdge, you acknowledge that:

• All trading decisions are your own
• You have read and understood the risks involved
• You will only trade with capital you can afford to lose
• You will seek independent financial advice if needed
• You understand that signals are informational, not directives

7. Regulatory Notice

QuantaEdge LLC is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), or any state securities regulator as an investment advisor or broker-dealer. QuantaEdge is an information service, not an advisory service.
