Risk disclosure statement

This Risk Disclosure Statement forms an integral part of the Client Agreement and should be read carefully before opening an account or engaging in any trading activity with the Company. It does not disclose all of the risks associated with trading foreign exchange, CFDs, and other derivative products. Clients should ensure they fully understand the nature of these financial instruments, the legal obligations arising from such transactions, and the extent of the risks involved before trading. Trading leveraged financial products involves a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Before deciding to trade, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, financial situation, and risk tolerance.

1. Operations with foreign currency and derivatives

1.1 Leveraged Trading

Trading leveraged financial instruments involves a high level of risk. While leverage can significantly increase potential profits, it can also substantially increase potential losses.

Margin requirements vary depending on the financial instrument traded and prevailing market conditions. When trading on margin, you may lose all of your initial investment and, where permitted by applicable law, your losses may exceed the amount originally deposited into your trading account.

Because leverage amplifies market movements, even small fluctuations in market prices may have a significant impact on your trading position. If the equity in your trading account falls below the required margin level, the Company may require you to deposit additional margin to maintain your open positions.

Failure to meet a margin call within the required timeframe may result in the Company closing one or more of your open positions without prior notice. You will remain responsible for any resulting losses or outstanding obligations

1.2 Risk Management Orders and Trading Strategies

The use of risk management tools, including stop-loss and take-profit orders, may help reduce trading risks but cannot eliminate them.

Under certain market conditions, including periods of high volatility, low liquidity, market gaps, or trading interruptions, orders may not be executed at the requested price or may not be executed at all. As a result, losses may exceed your intended risk limits.

No trading strategy or risk management technique can guarantee profits or prevent losses. You should carefully consider the risks associated with your trading strategy before entering into any transaction

2. Additional risks specific to transactions with foreign currency and derivatives

2.1 Conditions for Entering into Transactions

Before entering into any transaction, you should carefully review all relevant information provided by the Company regarding the products and services offered, including applicable trading conditions, margin requirements, fees, settlement procedures, and any contractual obligations associated with the transaction.

Certain financial instruments, including foreign exchange, Contracts for Difference (CFDs), precious metals, commodities, indices, and other derivative products, may involve specific rights and obligations, including settlement, expiration, rollover, or delivery requirements where applicable. You should ensure that you fully understand these obligations before trading.

Under certain market conditions, exchanges, liquidity providers, clearing houses, or other relevant market participants may modify trading rules, contract specifications, margin requirements, or settlement procedures. Such changes may affect your open positions and increase your risk exposure

2.2 Market Conditions and Price Volatility

Certain market conditions, including periods of low liquidity, extreme price volatility, market disruptions, or trading suspensions, may significantly affect the execution of your orders and increase the risk of financial loss.

Under such circumstances, orders may not be executed at the requested price, may experience slippage, or may not be executed at all. In addition, the market price of a financial instrument may not always accurately reflect its fair value due to rapid market movements or temporary pricing inefficiencies.

Clients should understand that adverse market conditions may result in substantial losses regardless of any trading strategy employed

2.3 Client Funds and Assets

You should understand how your funds are handled and protected by the Company in accordance with applicable laws and internal policies.

Although the Company implements appropriate measures to safeguard client funds where required, circumstances such as insolvency, operational failure, or other unforeseen events may affect the timely return of your funds or assets. The extent of any available protection depends on the applicable legal and regulatory framework governing the Company and the relevant jurisdiction.

You should familiarize yourself with the Company’s policies regarding the protection, segregation, and handling of client funds before opening an account.

2.4 Fees, Charges and Costs

Before opening an account or entering into any transaction, you should carefully review all applicable fees, commissions, spreads, swap charges, financing costs, conversion fees, and any other charges that may apply to your trading activities.

These costs may significantly affect the overall profitability of your trading and should be taken into consideration when making investment decisions.

The Company reserves the right to amend its fee schedule in accordance with the Client Agreement and applicable regulations

2.5 Cross-Border Transactions

Trading financial instruments in foreign markets or across multiple jurisdictions may expose you to additional legal, regulatory, operational, and financial risks.

Different jurisdictions may have different laws governing investor protection, dispute resolution, taxation, market practices, and regulatory oversight. As a result, your rights and available legal remedies may differ from those applicable in your country of residence.

You acknowledge and accept that transactions executed through the Company may be subject to the laws and regulations of jurisdictions other than your own

2.6 Currency Risk

Trading financial instruments denominated in a currency different from the base currency of your trading account may expose you to exchange rate risk.

Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates may affect the value of your profits, losses, deposits, withdrawals, and account balances when converted into your account’s base currency. These fluctuations may increase or decrease your overall returns, regardless of the underlying financial instrument’s performance.

Clients should carefully consider the potential impact of exchange rate movements before trading products denominated in foreign currencies

2.7 Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk may affect your ability to open, modify, or close trading positions at your preferred price or within your preferred timeframe.

During periods of reduced market liquidity, increased volatility, or significant market events, the Company may experience delays in order execution, wider spreads, increased slippage, or temporary limitations on trading certain financial instruments.

Where the equity in your trading account falls below the required margin level, the Company may issue a margin call or, where permitted under the Client Agreement, automatically close one or more open positions to limit further losses.

Clients acknowledge that liquidity conditions are outside the Company’s control and may materially affect trading outcomes.

2.8 Stop-Loss and Other Risk Management Orders

Stop-loss orders, take-profit orders, trailing stops, and other risk management tools are designed to assist in managing trading risk; however, they cannot guarantee that losses will be limited to a predetermined amount.

During periods of high market volatility, low liquidity, market gaps, or trading interruptions, such orders may be executed at prices different from those requested or may not be executed immediately.

Clients acknowledge that no order type or trading strategy can eliminate the risks associated with leveraged trading

2.9 Order Execution Risk

Order execution may be affected by factors beyond the Company’s reasonable control, including market volatility, reduced liquidity, technical disruptions, communication delays, or system failures.

As a result, your order may be executed at a different price than expected, partially executed, delayed, or, in certain circumstances, rejected.

The Company makes reasonable efforts to execute client orders promptly and fairly; however, execution prices cannot be guaranteed under all market conditions.

Clients should understand that execution risk is an inherent characteristic of trading leveraged financial instruments

2.10 Counterparty Risk

Counterparty risk refers to the possibility that the Company, a liquidity provider, payment service provider, custodian, banking partner, or any other third-party service provider involved in the execution or settlement of transactions may fail to fulfil their financial or contractual obligations.

Although the Company carefully selects its business partners and implements appropriate risk management procedures, unforeseen events such as insolvency, operational failures, cyber incidents, or regulatory actions may affect the Company’s ability to provide uninterrupted services or process client transactions.

Clients acknowledge that counterparty risk is an inherent part of trading financial instruments and cannot be eliminated.

2.11 Trading Systems and Technology Risk

Trading services are provided through electronic trading systems that rely on software, hardware, communication networks, and third-party technology providers.

Despite the Company’s efforts to maintain reliable and secure trading systems, interruptions, delays, hardware failures, software errors, cyber-attacks, internet connectivity issues, or other technical problems may occur and affect your ability to access the trading platform, place orders, modify positions, or receive market information.

The Company shall not be liable for losses resulting from circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including failures of communication systems, internet services, third-party infrastructure, or force majeure events. 

2.12 Electronic Trading Risks

Trading through electronic trading platforms involves inherent technological and operational risks.

Electronic systems may experience delays, interruptions, data transmission errors, connectivity failures, software malfunctions, or other technical issues that could affect order execution, account access, market data, or other trading functions.

Although the Company implements appropriate security and monitoring measures, uninterrupted availability of electronic trading services cannot be guaranteed.

Clients acknowledge and accept the risks associated with the use of electronic trading platforms

2.13 Over-the-Counter (OTC) Transactions

Certain financial instruments offered by the Company may be traded over-the-counter (OTC) rather than on a regulated exchange.

OTC transactions may involve additional risks, including reduced market transparency, lower liquidity, pricing differences, increased counterparty risk, and limited availability of independent market information.

The Company may act as the counterparty to certain OTC transactions where permitted by applicable laws and regulations. Clients acknowledge that OTC markets may operate under different regulatory frameworks than exchange-traded markets and may therefore involve additional risks.

Clients should carefully consider these risks before entering into OTC transactions

3. Limitation of liability

The Company does not guarantee the profitability of any investment or trading activity and makes no representation that trading financial instruments will result in profits or prevent losses.

All trading decisions are made solely by the Client, who assumes full responsibility for evaluating the suitability of any investment or trading strategy based on their individual financial circumstances, investment objectives, and risk tolerance.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special losses arising from trading activities, market movements, system interruptions, communication failures, or circumstances beyond the Company’s reasonable control.

Nothing contained in this Risk Disclosure Statement shall exclude or limit any liability that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.

By opening an account and using the Company’s services, the Client acknowledges that they have read, understood, and accepted the risks associated with trading leveraged financial instruments.

The Company shall not be liable for any loss or inconvenience resulting from such actions.

9.7 Pricing, Spreads, and Execution Conditions

All prices and spreads displayed on the Trading Platform are determined by the Company based on market data received from its liquidity Master Traders. Prices may fluctuate rapidly, and the Client acknowledges that:

• Quoted prices may differ from actual execution prices due to market volatility or latency;
• Slippage may occur during periods of illiquidity or high volatility;
• The Company executes orders on a best-effort basis, considering price, speed, likelihood of execution, and market depth as outlined in the Order Execution Policy (Appendix III).

9.11 No Guarantee of Profit or Performance

Trading in leveraged instruments involves a substantial risk of loss. The Company provides no guarantee—express or implied—of trading success, market performance, or income generation. Past performance of financial instruments or strategies shall not be considered a reliable indicator of future results.

10. INSTRUCTIONS AND ORDER HANDLING

10.1 Method of Order Submission

All trading orders shall be submitted electronically through the Company’s proprietary or third-party Trading Platform, accessible via desktop, web, or mobile application. The Company does not accept orders via telephone, email, or any unofficial communication channel, except in specific cases where the Company provides written authorization (e.g., during system maintenance or technical failure). All orders placed through the Trading Platform are considered binding and shall be executed strictly in accordance with this Agreement and the Company’s Order Execution Policy (Appendix III).

10.2 Best Execution Policy

The Company executes all Client orders on a best-effort basis, taking into account a combination of factors including price, cost, speed, likelihood of execution and settlement, market conditions, and overall order size. While the Company aims to achieve the best possible result for each Client, it does not guarantee that execution prices will match quoted or displayed prices, particularly during periods of market volatility, illiquidity, or high trading volume.

10.3 Execution Models

The Company may execute Client orders under one or more of the following models:

• Straight Through Processing (STP) – Orders are transmitted directly to liquidity Master Traders.
• Electronic Communication Network (ECN) – Orders are matched electronically within an aggregated liquidity pool.
• Market Maker Model – The Company may act as principal counterparty to certain transactions.

The Company reserves the right to determine the execution method based on liquidity, technology, and risk management considerations.

10.4 Order Types and Execution Conditions

The Trading Platform supports multiple order types, including but not limited to:

• Market Orders – Executed at the best available price at the time of receipt;
• Pending Orders – Executed once the specified price is reached (Limit, Stop, Buy Stop, Sell Stop, Buy Limit, Sell Limit);
• Stop Loss and Take Profit Orders – Automatically close open positions once predefined price levels are reached;
• Trailing Stop Orders – Dynamically adjust stop-loss levels to protect gains as the market moves favorably.

Execution of pending or stop orders is not guaranteed at the requested price and may be subject to slippage in fast-moving markets.

10.5 Slippage and Requotes

Due to rapid price fluctuations, orders may be executed at a different price from the one displayed at the time of submission. This difference, known as slippage, may occur during news releases, low liquidity, or high volatility periods.

Positive Slippage: When execution occurs at a better price than requested.

Negative Slippage: When execution occurs at a worse price than requested. In rare cases, requotes may occur if the requested price is no longer available; the Client will receive a new quote for acceptance or rejection. The Company shall not be liable for losses arising from slippage or requotes.

10.6 Order Execution Priority

Orders are executed in the chronological sequence in which they are received. However, in exceptional market conditions (e.g., during high volatility or limited liquidity), execution priority may depend on price availability and platform performance. Partial fills may occur when only part of an order volume can be executed at the requested price.

10.7 Order Rejection and Cancellation

The Company reserves the right to refuse or cancel any order under the following circumstances:

• Insufficient margin or account balance;
• Account restrictions or system errors;
• Suspicion of abusive trading, arbitrage, or technical manipulation;
• During abnormal market conditions, including force majeure or connectivity failure;
• When the order violates the Company’s internal policies, trading limits, or risk parameters.

Rejected orders will not be executed, and the Client will be notified through the Trading Platform or Client Portal.

10.8 Delayed or Failed Execution

The Client acknowledges that order execution may be delayed or fail due to:

• Poor internet connection or latency;
• Platform overload during news events;
• Disconnection from the server or third-party network failures;
• Hardware or software malfunction on the Client’s device.

The Company shall not be responsible for losses resulting from such issues, provided it acted with reasonable care and diligence.

10.9 Market Hours and Trading Sessions

The Company provides trading access 24 hours per day, five (5) days per week, typically from 00:00 Monday to 23:59 Friday (platform time), excluding maintenance periods or public holidays affecting liquidity Master Traders. Certain instruments, such as commodities, indices, or cryptocurrencies, may have specific trading hours as published on the Company’s website.

10.10 Execution Acknowledgement and Trade Confirmation

Each executed order shall generate an on-screen confirmation through the Trading Platform, displaying transaction details including instrument, trade size, price, and time of execution. The Client must review all trade confirmations immediately and report any discrepancies to the Company within two (2) business days. Failure to do so shall render the trade final and binding.

10.11 Order Amendments and Cancellations

The Client may modify or cancel pending orders through the Trading Platform prior to execution. Once executed, orders cannot be amended or reversed. During periods of high volatility or market gaps, modification or cancellation requests may be delayed or rejected due to rapid price movement.

10.12 Company’s Right to Aggregate or Split Orders

The Company may, at its discretion, aggregate multiple Client orders for execution where such aggregation is unlikely to disadvantage Clients. Similarly, large Client orders may be split into smaller tranches to achieve better execution results or manage liquidity risk.

10.13 Temporary Suspension of Trading

The Company reserves the right to suspend or restrict trading activity under the following conditions:

• Scheduled maintenance or system upgrade;
• Unexpected market closure or circuit breaker activation;
• Force majeure events, including political or economic disruptions;
• Regulatory intervention requiring suspension of certain products.

The Company shall endeavor to notify Clients in advance when possible.

10.14 No Guarantee of Execution

While the Company strives to maintain efficient and fair execution standards, it cannot guarantee:

• Continuous availability of liquidity at all times;
• Execution at the exact quoted price; or
• Immediate processing during exceptional market conditions.

The Client accepts that execution speed, price, and slippage may vary based on market depth, volatility, and order size.

10.15 Disputes on Execution

If the Client believes an order has been improperly executed, they must notify the Company’s Trading Operations or Compliance Department within two (2) business days from the date of the trade. All disputes shall be reviewed in accordance with the Company’s Complaints and Dispute Resolution Policy (Section 28), using trading logs, price data, and execution records maintained by the Company.

APPENDIX I – RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

Trading in foreign exchange (“Forex”) and Contracts for Difference (“CFDs”) carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The products offered are complex instruments that use leverage, which can work both to your advantage and disadvantage. Before deciding to trade, the Client should carefully consider their investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite.

Leverage Risk

Leverage can significantly magnify both gains and losses. A small market movement may result in substantial profit or loss relative to the funds deposited. The Client may be required to deposit additional margin funds on short notice to maintain open positions. Failure to meet margin requirements may result in the automatic liquidation of positions at a loss, and the Client will be responsible for any resulting deficit.

Market and Volatility Risk

Currency prices and CFD values are subject to rapid and unpredictable fluctuations caused by economic events, interest rate changes, political instability, or natural disasters. These market movements can result in significant losses, including losses greater than the initial deposit.

Liquidity Risk

Certain market conditions may make it difficult or impossible to execute orders at desired prices. This includes times of high volatility, reduced market depth, or illiquid trading hours. Under such circumstances, stop-loss orders may not be effective.

Technical and Operational Risk

The Client acknowledges the risks associated with online trading, including but not limited to system errors, internet connectivity failures, delayed price feeds, and platform downtime. The Company shall not be liable for any loss arising from such technical issues beyond its control.

Counterparty and Credit Risk

Trading CFDs and Forex involves reliance on the Company or its liquidity Master Traders to fulfill contractual obligations. If the counterparty becomes insolvent or fails to meet its obligations, the Client may suffer partial or total loss of funds.

Regulatory and Legal Risk

Changes in regulations, tax laws, or trading restrictions imposed by governmental or regulatory authorities may affect the trading conditions or profitability of transactions.

Client Responsibility

The Client should only trade with funds they can afford to lose. It is the Client’s responsibility to understand all associated risks and ensure that they have adequate knowledge and experience to engage in leveraged trading. The Client is strongly advised to seek independent financial, legal, and tax advice before engaging in any trading activity.

Past Performance

Past performance of financial instruments or strategies does not guarantee future results. No representation is made that any account will achieve profits or losses similar to those discussed in any promotional materials or trading examples. By signing this Agreement, the Client acknowledges that they have read, understood, and accepted all risks associated with trading Forex and CFDs. The Client further confirms that they have the financial ability and willingness to assume such risks.

APPENDIX II – SCHEDULE OF TRADING CONDITIONS

• Verification Documents Required: Passport or ID, Utility Bill or Bank Statement
• Inactive Account Policy: Dormant after 30 days without trading
• Stop-Out Mechanism: Automatic closure below 50 % margin

1. Risk Warning

Prospective clients should study the following risk warnings very carefully. Please note that we do not explore or explain all the risks involved when dealing in Financial Instruments (including Contracts for Difference “the CFDs” and Equities). We outline the general nature of the risks of dealing in Financial Instruments on a fair and non-misleading basis.

In particular, Contracts for Difference (‘CFDs’) are complex financial products and not suitable for all investors. CFDs are leveraged products that mature when you choose to close an existing open position. By investing in CFDs, you assume a high level of risk and can result in the loss of all of your invested capital.

Unless a client knows and fully understands the risks involved in each Financial Instrument, they should not engage in any trading activity. You should not risk more than you are prepared to lose. We Golden (PTY) LTD will not provide clients with any investment advice in relation to investments, possible transactions in investments, or Financial Instruments, neither will we make any investment recommendations.

Clients should consider which Financial Instrument is suitable for them according to their financial status and goals before opening an account with We Golden (PTY) LTD. If a client is unclear about the risks involved in trading in Financial Instruments, then they should consult an independent financial advisor.

If the client still doesn’t understand these risks after consulting an independent financial advisor, then they should refrain from trading at all.

Purchasing and selling Financial Instruments comes with a significant risk of losses and damages and each client must understand that the investment value can both increase and decrease, and clients are liable for all these losses and damages, which could result in more than the initial invested capital.

2. Acknowledgement

Technical Risk

1. The Client shall be responsible for the risks of financial losses caused by the failure of information, communication, electronic and other systems. The result of any system failure may be that his order is either not executed according to his instructions or it is not executed at all. The Company does not accept any liability in the case of such a failure.
2. While trading through the Client Terminal the Client shall be responsible for the risks of financial losses caused by:
   • a. Client’s or Company’s hardware or software failure, malfunction or misuse;
   • b. Poor Internet connection either on the side of the Client or the Company or both, or interruptions or transmission blackouts or public electricity network failures or hacker attacks, overload of connection;
   • c. The wrong settings in the Client Terminal;
   • d. Delayed Client Terminal updates;
   • e. The Client disregarding the applicable rules described in the Client Terminal user guide and in the Company’s Website.

Abnormal Market Conditions

1. The Client acknowledges that under Abnormal Market Conditions the execution period of Instructions and Requests may be extended.

Trading Platform

1. The Client acknowledges that only one Request or Instruction is allowed to be in the queue at one time. Once the Client has sent a Request or an Instruction, any further. Requests or Instructions sent by the Client are ignored and the “Order is locked” message appears until the first Request or Instruction is executed.
2. The Client acknowledges that the only reliable source of Quotes Flow information is that of the real/live Server’s Quotes Base. Quotes Base in the Client Terminal is not a reliable source of Quotes Flow information because the connection between the Client Terminal and the Server may be disrupted at some point and some of the Quotes simply may not reach the Client Terminal.
3. The Client acknowledges that when the Client closes the order placing/modifying/deleting window or the position opening/closing window, the Instruction or Request, which has been sent to the Server, shall not be cancelled.
4. In case the Client has not received the result of the execution of the previously sent Instruction but decides to repeat the Instruction, the Client shall accept the risk of making two Transactions instead of one, however the client may receive an “Order is locked” message as described in point 2.5 above.
5. The Client acknowledges that if the Pending Order has already been executed but the Client sends the Instruction to modify its level and the levels of If-Done Orders at the same time, the only Instruction, which will be executed, is the Instruction to modify Stop Loss and/or Take Profit levels on the position opened when the Pending Order triggered.

Communication

1. The Client shall accept the risk of any financial losses caused by the fact that the Client has received with delay or has not received at all any notice from the Company.
2. The Client acknowledges that the unencrypted information transmitted by email is not protected from any unauthorised access.
3. The Client is fully responsible for the risks in respect of undelivered trading platform internal mail messages sent to the Client by the Company as they are automatically deleted within 3 (three) calendar days.
4. The Client is wholly responsible for the privacy of the information received from the Company and accepts the risk of any financial losses caused by the unauthorised access of a third party to the Client’s Trading Account.
5. The Company has no responsibility if authorized/unauthorised third persons have access to information, including electronic addresses, electronic communication and personal data, access data when the above are transmitted between the Company or any other party, using the internet or other network communication facilities, telephone, or any other electronic means.

Force Majeure Event

1. In case of a Force Majeure Event the Client shall accept the risk of financial losses.

3. Risk Warning Notice for Foreign Exchange and Derivative Products

1. This notice cannot disclose all the risks and other significant aspects of foreign exchange and derivative products such as futures, options, and Contracts for Differences. You should not deal in these products unless you understand their nature and the extent of your exposure to risk. You should also be satisfied that the product is suitable for you in light of your circumstances and financial position. Certain strategies, such as a “spread” position or a “straddle”, may be as risky as a simple Long or Short position. Although forex and derivative instruments can be used for the management of investment risk, some of these products are unsuitable for many investors. You should not engage in any dealings directly or indirectly in derivative products unless you know and understand the risks involved in them and that you may lose entirely all of your money. Different instruments involve different levels of exposure to risk and in deciding whether to trade in such instruments you should be aware of the following points:

Effect of Leverage

1. Under Margin Trading conditions even small market movements may have great impact on the Client’s Trading Account. It is important to note that all accounts trade under the effect of Leverage. The Client must consider that if the market moves against the Client, the Client may sustain a total loss greater than the funds deposited. The Client is responsible for all the risks, financial resources the Client uses and for the chosen trading strategy.

It is highly recommended that the Client maintains a Margin Level (percentage Equity to Necessary Margin ratio which is calculated as Equity / Necessary Margin * 100%) of not lower than 1,000%. It is also recommended to place Stop Loss to limit potential losses, and Take Profit to collect profits, when it is not possible for the Client to manage the Client’s Open Positions.

The Client shall be responsible for all financial losses caused by the opening of the position using temporary excess Free Margin on the Trading Account gained as a result of a profitable position (cancelled by the Company afterwards) opened at an Error Quote (Spike) or at a Quote received as a result of a Manifest Error.

High Volatile Instruments

1. Some Instruments trade within wide intraday ranges with volatile price movements. Therefore, the Client must carefully consider that there is a high risk of losses as well as profits. The price of Derivative financial instruments is derived from the price of the underlying asset in which the instruments refer to (for example currency, stock, metals, indices, etc). Derivative financial instruments and related markets can be highly volatile. The prices of instruments and the underlying asset may fluctuate rapidly and over wide ranges and may reflect unforeseeable events or changes in conditions, none of which can be controlled by the Client or the Company. Under certain market conditions it may be impossible for a Client’s order to be executed at declared price leading to losses. The prices of instruments and the underlying asset will be influenced by, amongst other things, changing supply and demand relationships, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and the prevailing psychological characteristics of the relevant market place. Therefore, Stop Loss order cannot guarantee the limit of loss.

The Client acknowledges and accepts that, regardless of any information which may be offered by the Company, the value of Instruments may fluctuate downwards or upwards and it is even probable that the investment may become of no value. This is owed to the margining system applicable to such trades, which generally involves a comparatively modest deposit or margin in terms of the overall contract value, so that a relatively small movement in the underlying market can have a disproportionately dramatic effect on the Client’s trade. If the underlying market movement is in the Client’s favor, the Client may achieve a good profit, but an equally small adverse market movement can not only quickly result in the loss of the Client’s entire deposit, but may also expose the Client to a large additional loss.

Liquidity

1. Some of the underlying assets may not become immediately liquid as a result of reduced demand for the underlying asset and the Client may not be able to obtain the information on the value of these or the extent of the associated risks.

Futures

1. Transactions in futures involve the obligation to make, or to take, delivery of the underlying asset of the contract at a future date, or in some cases to settle the position with cash. They carry a high degree of risk. The gearing or leverage often obtainable in futures trading means that a small deposit or down payment can lead to large losses as well as gains. It also means that a relatively small movement can lead to a proportionately much larger movement in the value of your investment, and this can work against you as well as for you. Futures transactions have a contingent liability, and you should be aware of the implications of this, in particular the margining requirements, which are set out below.

Options

1. There are many different types of options with different characteristics subject to the following conditions.

Buying Options:

Buying options involves less risk than selling options because, if the price of the underlying asset moves against you, you can simply allow the option to lapse. The maximum loss is limited to the premium, plus any commission or other transaction charges. However, if you buy a call option on a futures contract and you later exercise the option, you will acquire the future. This will expose you to the risks described under futures’ and contingent liability investment transactions.

Writing Options:

If you write an option, the risk involved is considerably greater than buying options. You may be liable for margin to maintain your position and a loss may be sustained well in excess of the premium received. By writing an option, you accept a legal obligation to purchase or sell the underlying asset if the option is exercised against you, however far the market price has moved away from the exercise price. If you already own the underlying asset which you have contracted to sell (when the options will be known as covered call options) the risk is reduced. If you do not own the underlying asset (uncovered call options) the risk can be unlimited. Only experienced persons should contemplate writing uncovered options, and then only after securing full details of the applicable conditions and potential risk exposure.

Contracts for Differences

1. The CFDs available for trading with the Company are non-deliverable spot transactions giving an opportunity to make profit on changes in currency rates, commodity, stock market indices or share prices called the underlying instrument. If the underlying instrument movement is in the Client’s favour, the Client may achieve a good profit, but an equally small adverse market movement can not only quickly result in the loss of the Client’s entire deposit but also any additional table-accordion commissions and other expenses incurred. So, the Client must not enter into CFDs unless he is willing to undertake the risks of losing entirely all the money which he has invested and also any additional table-accordion commissions and other expenses incurred.

Investing in a Contract for Differences carries the same risks as investing in a future or an option and you should be aware of these as set out above. Transactions in Contracts for Differences may also have a contingent liability and you should be aware of the implications of this as set out below.

Equities

1. Equities, represent a portion of a company’s share capital. The extent of the Client’s ownership in a company depends on the number of shares the Client owns in relation to the total number of shares in issue.

Shares are bought and sold on stock exchanges and their values can go down. In respect of shares in smaller companies, there is an extra risk of losing money when such shares are bought or sold. There can be a big difference between the buying and selling price of these shares.

If they have to be sold immediately, the Clients may get back much less than they paid for them. Shares in companies incorporated in emerging markets may be harder to buy and sell than those shares in companies in more developed markets and such companies may also not be regulated as strictly.

All Equities offered are listed on an exchange, which means that the prices are not set by the Company. The Company will act on any instruction that the Client provides to buy or sell an instrument on his/her behalf in accordance with the Company’s obligation to provide best execution as set out in the order execution policy, to act reasonably and in accordance with the applicable Client Agreement and other Operative Agreements.

The Company may place the Clients instructions to deal outside of an exchange if this is in line with the order execution policy.

The Company will arrange for the custody of the Clients instruments.

All equities purchased for the Client or transferred to the Company by the Client, will be purchased in the name of the nominee company or We Golden (PTY) LTD, and/or held by a nominee company selected by We Golden (PTY) LTD, for the benefit of the Client.

As investments will be held in the name of a nominee company, the Client may not have voting rights which he/she would have had if he/she held the investment in his/her own name.

All financial investments involve an element of risk. The value of any investment the Client makes through may fall as well as rise and the Client may get back less than his/her initial investment. Past performance is not an indication of future performance.

The risks that the Clients are exposed to will vary according to the instruments they instruct the Company to buy and sell on their behalf.

The Clients should be aware that physical shares admitted to trading on a regulated market are not high risk financial products.

The Company’s services are provided on an execution only basis. The Company does not provide investment advice in relation to Equities. The Company might provide factual information or research recommendations about a market, information about transaction procedures and information about the potential risks involved and how those risks may be minimized. However, any decision to use the products or services is made by the Client.

Collateral risks (professional/elective professionals only)

When Clients enter into the Collateral Agreement with the Company, it is agreed to take security over the assets in the Share Account in place of cash for payment of margin on their linked CFD Account. The value of shares and CFDs will rise and fall. If the collateral value of the assets in Clients Share Account, together with any cash on Client’s linked CFD Account, falls below the amount required to maintain the open positions, Client may be closed out of the CFD positions on that linked account, and the Company will have the right to sell the assets in the Client’s Share Account in order to pay for any resulting deficit.

As the value of the assets in the Clients Share Account fluctuates the value of the collateral that the Client can utilise as margin will also fluctuate. The Client will need to monitor his/her Share Account and the linked CFD Account to ensure that the collateral value and any cash he/she has deposited on his/her linked CFD Account is sufficient to fund his/her open positions on that account.

The Client will only be able to use his/her collateral services to cover margin requirements on open positions on his/her linked CFD Account and he/she will need to cover any running losses using the available cash in his/her linked CFD Account.

Off-exchange Transactions in Derivatives

1. CFDs, forex and precious metals are off-exchange transactions. While some off-exchange markets are highly liquid, transactions in off-exchange or non-transferable derivatives may involve greater risk than investing in on-exchange derivatives because there is no exchange market on which to close out an Open Position. It may be impossible to liquidate an existing position, to assess the value of the position arising from an off exchange transaction or to assess the exposure to risk. Bid prices and Ask prices need not be quoted, and, even where they are, they will be established by dealers in these instruments and consequently it may be difficult to establish what is a fair price.

In regards to transactions in CFDs, forex and precious metals with the Company, the Company is using a trading platform for transactions in CFDs which does not fall into the definition of a recognized exchange as this is not a Multilateral Trading Facility and so do not have the same protection.

Foreign Markets

1. Foreign markets involve various risks. On request, the Company must provide an explanation of the relevant risks and protections (if any) which will operate in any foreign markets, including the extent to which it will accept liability for any default of a foreign firm through whom it deals. The potential for profit or loss from transactions on foreign markets or in foreign denominated contracts will be affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

Contingent Liability Investment Transactions

1. Contingent liability investment transactions, which are margined, require you to make a series of payments against the purchase price, instead of paying the whole purchase price immediately. The Margin requirement will depend on the underlying asset of the instrument. Margin requirements can be fixed or calculated from current price of the underlying instrument, it can be found on the website of the Company.

If you trade in futures, Contracts for Differences or sell options, you may sustain a total loss of the funds you have deposited to open and maintain a position. If the market moves against you, you may be called upon to pay substantial additional funds at short notice to maintain the position. If you fail to do so within the time required, your position may be liquidated at a loss and you will be responsible for the resulting deficit. It is noted that the Company will not have a duty to notify the Client for any Margin Call to sustain a loss-making position.

Even if a transaction is not margined, it may still carry an obligation to make further payments in certain circumstances over and above any amount paid when you entered the contract.

Contingent liability investment transactions which are not traded on or under the rules of a recognised or designated investment exchange may expose you to substantially greater risks.

Collateral

1. If you deposit collateral as security with the Company, the way in which it will be treated will vary according to the type of transaction and where it is traded. There could be significant differences in the treatment of your collateral depending on whether you are trading on a recognised or designated investment exchange, with the rules of that exchange (and the associated clearing house) applying, or trading off-exchange. Deposited collateral may lose its identity as your property once dealings on your behalf are undertaken. Even if your dealings should ultimately prove profitable, you may not get back the same assets which you deposited, and may have to accept payment in cash. You should ascertain from your firm how your collateral will be dealt with.

Commissions and Taxes

1. Before you begin to trade, you should make yourself aware of all table-accordion commissions and other charges for which you will be liable. If any charges are not expressed in monetary terms (but, for example, as a percentage of contract value), you should ensure that you understand the true monetary value of the charges.
2. There is a risk that the Client’s trades in any Financial Instruments including derivative instruments may be or become subject to tax and/or any other duty for example because of changes in legislation or his personal circumstances. The Company does not warrant that no tax and/or any other stamp duty will be payable. The Client is responsible for any taxes and/or any other duty which may accrue in respect of his trades.
3. The Clients are responsible for managing their tax and legal affairs including making any regulatory filings and payments and complying with applicable laws and regulations. The Company does not provide any regulatory, tax or legal advice. If the Clients are in any doubt as to the tax treatment or liabilities of investment products available through the Company, they should seek independent advice.
4. Residents of some jurisdictions may be subject to restrictions or limitations related to the remittance of money outside of their jurisdiction by the relevant local tax or financial authorities of the jurisdiction or may be required to seek authorization to do so. We shall not be liable for, and it is your responsibility to ensure, your compliance with such requirements. Consider taking advice from an appropriate advisor.

Suspensions of Trading

1. Under certain trading conditions it may be difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. This may occur, for example, at times of rapid price movement if the price rises or falls in one trading session to such an extent that under the rules of the relevant exchange trading is suspended or restricted. Placing a Stop Loss will not necessarily limit your losses to the intended amounts, because market conditions may make it impossible to execute such an Order at the stipulated price. In addition, under certain market conditions the execution of a Stop Loss Order may be worse than its stipulated price and the realized losses can be larger than expected.

Clearing House Protections

1. On many exchanges, the performance of a transaction by your firm (or third party with whom it is dealing on your behalf) is guaranteed by the exchange or clearing house. However, this guarantee is unlikely in most circumstances to cover you, the Client, and may not protect you if your firm or another party defaults on its obligations to you. On request, the Company must explain any protection provided to you under the clearing guarantee applicable to any on-exchange derivatives in which you are dealing. There is no clearing house for traditional options, nor normally for off-exchange instruments which are not traded under the rules of a recognised or designated investment exchange.

Insolvency

1. The Company’s insolvency or default, may lead to positions being liquidated or closed out without your consent. In certain circumstances, you may not get back the actual assets which you lodged as collateral and you may have to accept any available payments in cash or by any other method deemed to be appropriate.
2. Segregated Funds will be subject to the protections conferred by Applicable Regulations.
3. Non-segregated Funds will not be subject to the protections conferred by Applicable Regulations. Non-segregated Funds will not be segregated from the Company’s money and will be used in the course of the Company’s business, and in the event of the Company’s insolvency you will rank as a general creditor.

4. Third Party Risk

This notice is provided to you in accordance with applicable legislation.

1. The Company may pass money received from the Client to a third party (e.g. a bank, a market, intermediate broker, OTC counterparty or clearing house) to hold or control in order to effect a Transaction through or with that person or to satisfy the Client ‘s obligation to provide collateral (e.g. initial margin requirement) in respect of a Transaction. The Company has no responsibility for any acts or omissions of any third party to whom it will pass money received from the Client.
2. The third party to whom the Company will pass money may hold it in an omnibus account and it may not be possible to separate it from the Client ‘s money, or the third party’s money. In the event of the insolvency or any other analogous proceedings in relation to that third party, the Company may only have an unsecured claim against the third party on behalf of the Client, and the Client will be exposed to the risk that the money received by the Company from the third party is insufficient to satisfy the claims of the Client with claims in respect of the relevant account. The Company does not accept any liability or responsibility for any resulting losses.
3. The Company may deposit Client money with a depository who may have a security interest, lien or right of set-off in relation to that money.
4. A Bank or Broker through whom the Company deals with could have interests contrary to the Client’s interests.
