CTA Risks Sample Clauses

CTA Risks. The risk of loss in trading commodities can be substantial. You should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. In considering whether to trade or to authorize someone else to trade for you, you should be aware of the following additional commodities related risks: (a) If you purchase a commodity option you may sustain a total loss of the premium and of all transaction costs. (b) If you purchase or sell a commodity future or sell a commodity option, you may sustain a total loss of the initial margin funds and any additional funds that you deposit with your broker to establish or maintain your position.

If you do not provide the requested funds within the prescribed time, your position may be liquidated at a loss, and you will be liable for any resulting deficit in your account. (c) Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. This can occur, for example, when the market makes a “limit move”. (d) The placement of contingent orders by you or your trading advisor, such as a “stop-loss” or “stop-limit” order, will not necessarily limit your losses to the intended amounts, since market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders.

It may be necessary for those accounts that are subject to these charges to make substantial trading profits to avoid depletion or exhaustion of their assets. This disclosure document contains a complete description of each fee to be charged to your account by the commodity trading advisor. (h) You should also be aware that the commodity trading advisor may engage in trading foreign futures or options contracts.

(ii) In order to fund its operations, attract and retain employees, consultants and other service providers, pursue business opportunities as they arise, which may include the acquisition of businesses or assets, and satisfy other obligations, the Company may be required to issue additional shares of Common Stock, securities exercisable or convertible into shares of Common Stock, or debt.
