Common use of RISK OF TRADING FUTURES AND OPTIONS Clause in Contracts

RISK OF TRADING FUTURES AND OPTIONS. (a) The risk of loss in trading futures contracts or options is substantial. In some circumstances, I/we may sustain losses in excess of my/our initial margin funds. Placing contingent orders, such as “stop-loss” or “stop-limit” orders, will not necessarily avoid loss. Market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders. I/We may be called upon at short notice to deposit additional margin funds. If the required funds are not provided within the prescribed time, my/our position may be liquidated. I/We will remain liable for any resulting deficit in my/our account. I/We should therefore study and understand futures contracts and options before I/we trade and carefully consider whether such trading is suitable in the light of my/our own financial position and investment objectives. If I/we trade options I/we should inform myself/ourselves of exercise and expiration procedures and my/our rights and obligations upon exercise or expiry. (b) This brief statement does not disclose all of the risks and other significant aspects of trading in futures and options. In light of the risks, myself/ourselves should undertake such transactions only if I/we understand the nature of the contracts (and contractual relationships) into which I am/we are entering and the extent of my/our exposure to risk. Trading in futures and options is not suitable for many members of the public. I/We should carefully consider whether trading is appropriate for me/us in light of my/our experience, objectives, financial resources and other relevant circumstances.
