Risk Disclosure
Last updated: March 2026
Trading leveraged instruments carries a high level of risk. Please read this disclosure carefully before opening an account.
Important Risk Warning
You may lose your invested capital
Trading foreign exchange, cryptocurrencies, and other leveraged instruments carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. You may lose some or all of your invested capital. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
1. Leverage Risk
Ezymex offers leverage up to 1:100 on certain instruments. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. A small adverse price movement can result in substantial losses or even the complete loss of your deposit.
Example
With 1:100 leverage, a 1% adverse price movement results in a 100% loss of your margin.
2. Market Risk
Financial markets are volatile and unpredictable. Prices can move rapidly due to:
- Economic data releases and central bank announcements
- Geopolitical events and political instability
- Market sentiment shifts and investor behavior
- Supply and demand imbalances
- Regulatory changes and policy decisions
- Cryptocurrency volatility and technological changes
3. Liquidity Risk
While major currency pairs are highly liquid, some instruments may have limited liquidity. During periods of low liquidity, you may experience:
- Wider bid-ask spreads
- Slippage on order execution
- Difficulty closing positions at desired prices
- Increased trading costs
4. Counterparty Risk
Ezymex acts as the counterparty to your trades. This means your profit is our loss and your loss is our gain, which is a conflict of interest you should understand before trading. If the Company were to fail financially, your funds may be at risk.
5. Technology Risk
Trading platforms are subject to technical failures, including:
- Server outages and connectivity issues
- Platform bugs and software errors
- Cyber attacks and security breaches
- Internet connection failures on your end
- Mobile app crashes and malfunctions
While we maintain redundant systems and backups, we cannot guarantee 100% uptime. Trading during periods of technical difficulty may result in losses.
6. Cryptocurrency Risk
Cryptocurrency trading carries additional risks:
- Extreme price volatility (50%+ daily moves are possible)
- Regulatory uncertainty and potential bans
- Wallet and exchange security risks
- Blockchain network congestion and delays
- Limited historical data and price discovery
- Potential for total loss of investment

8. Regulatory Risk
Financial regulations are subject to change. Changes in regulations could:

9. Negative Balance Protection
While Ezymex offers negative balance protection, meaning your account cannot go below zero, this protection may not apply in all circumstances, including:
- Extreme market gaps and flash crashes
- System failures during market volatility
- Violations of our terms of service
