Risk Disclosure

1. TradeLens is educational, not advice

Every output from TradeLens — chart analyses, trade plans, entry / stop-loss / take-profit suggestions, win probabilities, market verdicts (BUY / SELL / HOLD), confidence scores, and the public track record — is informational educational content based on visual pattern recognition by a Large Language Model. It is not investment advice, a solicitation, or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any financial instrument.

We are not a regulated investment firm. We are not authorised by the FCA, SEC, or any other financial regulator to give personalised investment advice. Always do your own research and consider seeking advice from a qualified, regulated financial advisor.

2. AI output has limitations

• The AI analyses static screenshots — it cannot see order flow, news, fundamentals, regulatory events, liquidity conditions, or anything outside the image.
• Pattern recognition is probabilistic. A “90% win probability” means 1 in 10 setups still loses by definition.
• AI can hallucinate prices, misread axes, or misclassify timeframes. Always cross-check entry/SL/TP against your live broker chart before placing a trade.
• Verdicts on the Live Signal Stream are refreshed every ~10 minutes — markets move much faster than that.

3. Trading-specific risks

You can lose more than you deposit

Leveraged products (CFDs, futures, margin trading, options) can result in losses greater than your initial deposit. Many retail traders lose money on these products. Per FCA disclosure norms, between 70% and 85% of retail CFD accounts lose money over time.

Forex / CFD risks

• Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. A 1% market move on 30:1 leverage = 30% account move.
• Overnight financing (swap) costs can erode profitable positions held long-term.
• Slippage during news events or low liquidity can blow through stop losses.

Stocks / indices / ETFs

• Individual stocks can gap down 20%+ overnight on earnings or news.
• Margin calls can force liquidation at the worst possible price.
• Tax treatment varies by jurisdiction — consult a tax professional.

4. Position sizing & risk management is YOUR responsibility

Our position-size calculator helps you compute size for a given risk per trade — but choosing what % to risk, whether to take a trade, when to exit, and whether to use leverage is entirely your decision.

Professional traders typically follow rules like:

• Risk no more than 0.5% – 2% of account equity per trade.
• Never add to a losing position without a plan written down BEFORE entry.
• Walk away after 3 consecutive losses or a daily drawdown limit (e.g. -3% of equity).
• Use hard stop losses on every trade — no exceptions.

5. Past performance ≠ future results

Our public AI Track Record displays historical performance of public analyses, automatically resolved against live market data via yfinance. This is transparent — but it is not a guarantee of future returns. Markets change regimes. Strategies that worked in trending markets fail in ranging ones. Always evaluate any track record with skepticism, including ours.

6. Regulatory status

TradeLens AI is a software-as-a-service product operating from the United Kingdom. We are not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. We do not hold client funds, do not execute trades, and do not provide personalised investment advice or portfolio management.

7. Restricted users
