Trading in margined foreign exchange involves a high degree of risk including the risk of loss of the Customer’s entire Risk Capital. Losses, in some cases, have the potential to extend beyond the Customers Account Value. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) requires all the undersigned Customer(s) to analyze their financial objectives, financial status, investment constraints and tax situation to determine whether OTC Foreign Exchange trading is suitable. In addition, we require our Customers to carefully and acknowledge the (FXOPTIMAX LTD) Risk Disclosure Statement that outlines without limitation the risks associated with trading margined foreign exchange through (FXOPTIMAX LTD). By signing this Agreement the Customer understands and agrees that:
By signing the Risk Disclosure Statement, the Customer(s) agrees that they are in full understanding and willing to assume the legal, economic, and other risks associated with the trading in margined OTC Foreign Exchange, and are willing and able to assume the loss of their entire Risk Capital, defined as those funds, that if lost, would not change your lifestyle or your family's lifestyle. As such, they further agree that margined OTC Foreign Exchange trading is not suitable for Retirement Funds. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) encourages Customers to closely manage outstanding open positions and to use prudent money management precautions such as, but not limited to, Stop Loss Orders.
By signing the Risk Disclosure Statement, the Customer(s) aggress that using a high degree of leverage, defined as the use of a small amount of capital to control a larger amount of an Open Position, can result in large losses due to a price change(s) of open Foreign Currency Contract(s). (FXOPTIMAX LTD) encourages its Customers to use only that portion of leverage that the Customer is most comfortable with and to use money management precautions such as, but not limited to, Stop Loss Orders for the purpose of limiting risk. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) reserves, at its sole discretion, the right to reduce or increase the amount of leverage given on any Currency Pair at any time and without notice.
By signing the (FXOPTIMAX LTD) Risk Disclosure Statement, the Customer acknowledges that Liquidity Risk, resulting from decreased liquidity of a currency pair, is usually due to unanticipated changes in economic and/or political conditions. Customer also acknowledges that Liquidity Risk can affect the general market in that all participants experience the same lack of buyers and/or sellers. When liquidity decreases, Customers can expect, at the minimum, to have wider bid to ask spreads as the supply of available bid/ask prices, outstrips the demand. Decreases in liquidity can also result in "Fast Market" conditions where the price of a currency pair moves sharply higher or lower or in a volatile up/down pattern without trading in an ordinary step-like fashion. In some instances, there may exist the possibility that a trading bid and/or ask price for a foreign exchange pair or pairs are not available (a situation where there is no liquidity). Although there may be instances when the aggregate OTC foreign exchange market enters a "Fast Market" situation or periods where liquidity is in short or no supply, it is important to note that, the Platform’s prices, bid/ask spreads and liquidity will reflect the prevailing interbank market liquidity. Customer’s who do not have adequate margin will have their accounts liquidated: Because of the leverage available with OTC Margined Foreign Exchange Trading and the potential for extreme volatility, (FXOPTIMAX LTD) reserves the sole discretionary right to liquidate Customer’s Account(s) should the Margin in the Account not be sufficient to cover the potential risk of loss. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) graphically shows the Customer’s Liquidation Level on the Customers (FXOPTIMAX LTD) Margin Monitor.
Customer is solely responsible for making all appropriate arrangements with any telecommunications suppliers or, where access to the Platform is provided through a third party server, any such third party, necessary in order to obtain access to the Platform. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) will not accept orders over the telephone. In the event of an emergency loss of internet access, (FXOPTIMAX LTD) may be able to take a close order over the telephone. There exists the risk that the Customer will not be able to contact or make contact with the (FXOPTIMAX LTD) representative due to but not limited to, communication malfunction or any other malfunction. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that they will hold harmless (FXOPTIMAX LTD), its technology partners and technology providers for any loss or missed trading opportunity resulting from any communication problems the Customer may encounter. Any given price by a (FXOPTIMAX LTD) representative over the telephone prior to execution is considered indicative. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) reserves the right to change the indicative price given over the phone if the actual dealing price is different due to market conditions, misquote or volatility. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) is not responsible for Customer telephone orders if the Customer cannot be heard or understood by the (FXOPTIMAX LTD) representative due to, without limitation, accent, speech defect, faulty connection, or excessive background noise at the Customers location or at (FXOPTIMAX LTD). To better insure execution, (FXOPTIMAX LTD) requires that Customers communicate in English when giving orders. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) cannot guarantee that telephone orders given in a foreign language will be executed.
Should a Customer grant a Third Party Account Manager trading discretionary trading authority or control over a Customers Account, the Customer acknowledges that (FXOPTIMAX LTD) does not take any responsibility for any action done by that Third Party on the Customer’s behalf. The Customer grants Third Party trading authority for the Customers Account at it sole, and full risk. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) reserves the right to correct any deals executed on misquoting errors: In the case when a quoting error occurs that results in a Customer deal done at an off-market price, (FXOPTIMAX LTD) reserves the sole discretionary right to make the necessary corrections and adjustments to the Customer’s Account whether it be in the favor of the Customer or not in the Customer’s favor. Any change will be reported to the Customer either verbally or via an electronic method such as but not limited to email.
Any decision by the Customer to buy or sell a Foreign Currency pair is an independent decision by the Customer. Market recommendations made by (FXOPTIMAX LTD) or a representative of (FXOPTIMAX LTD) do not constitute an offer to sell or buy any Foreign Currency pair from (FXOPTIMAX LTD) or from any other source that may provide dealing prices to the Customer. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) and it’s employees are not investment advisor(s) and has no fiduciary duty to Customer and therefore is not liable for any losses incurred by the Customer as a result of information or any recommendations made by (FXOPTIMAX LTD) or representative of (FXOPTIMAX LTD). Customer is at Risk if (FXOPTIMAX LTD) should go out of Business. There is no guarantee that (FXOPTIMAX LTD) as a business will be profitable. Consequently, there exists a credit risk that (FXOPTIMAX LTD) may be subject to losses, which could, in turn, jeopardize the capital that the Customers have in their Accounts. Customer acknowledges that in the event of insolvency, the Customer can only look to (FXOPTIMAX LTD) for performance and return of all Collateral and Margin that the Customer may have at (FXOPTIMAX LTD).
The Customer agrees and acknowledges that (FXOPTIMAX LTD) may liquidate all Customer positions, and return margined funds to the Customer at the sole discretion of (FXOPTIMAX LTD), at any time and for any reason. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) Customers do not hold (FXOPTIMAX LTD) liable for any loss as a result of liquidation of the Customers position either on an actual basis or as a result of missed profit opportunities.
Any reporting and confirmation errors of omission, and/or errors in details of transactions including but not limited to the price contracts were executed, the currency pair traded, the market direction (i.e. ”buy” or “sell”) of order, the type of order and/or any errors in fees, charges or credits to the Customers Account including but not limited to charges for executing a transaction, wiring funds, rolling over position, and sweeping foreign currency balances into the home currency, require that the customer notify (FXOPTIMAX LTD) immediately upon discovery for review. In addition, the Customer is responsible to submit any errors in writing to (FXOPTIMAX LTD) and send the complete details to Attn: Customer Objections, by Email to [email protected] Notice shall be deemed received only if return receipt requested.

(FXOPTIMAX LTD) makes no representations as to requirement of the (FXOPTIMAX LTD) or the Customer to register with any regulatory body or agency. (FXOPTIMAX LTD) assumes no responsibility for an action taken by any regulatory body or agency against a Customer arising from services provided by this Agreement. Customer acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to have this Agreement reviewed by legal counsel of its choosing. Customer acknowledges, represents and warrants that (FXOPTIMAX LTD), its technology partners and technology providers are not a counterparty under this Agreement and do not assume any responsibilities associated with a counterparty in the FOREX market or otherwise.
