This page explains the main risks to keep in mind when using Marketaxiom.com. It applies to our articles, COT analysis, stock screens, dashboards, reports, courses, forum discussions, and premium research content.
Marketaxiom is built for research and education. We are not a financial advisor, broker, investment manager, or trading signal provider.
1. Research and Education Only
All content on Marketaxiom is provided for research and educational purposes only.
Nothing on this website should be treated as financial advice, investment advice, trading advice, tax advice, legal advice, or a personal recommendation to buy, sell, hold, or trade any financial instrument.
You are responsible for your own financial decisions.
2. No Personal Investment Advice
Marketaxiom does not provide personalized investment advice.
Our content is general. It does not consider your financial situation, investment goals, experience, risk tolerance, time horizon, or personal needs.
Before making financial decisions, you should do your own research and consider speaking with a qualified professional.
3. Trading and Investing Carry Risk
Trading and investing involve risk. Markets can move quickly, and prices may change for reasons that are difficult to predict.
You may lose some or all of your invested capital.
Do not trade or invest money you cannot afford to lose.
4. No Guaranteed Results
Marketaxiom does not guarantee profits, returns, trading success, portfolio performance, or any specific financial outcome.
Past performance, historical examples, backtests, model portfolios, COT analysis, stock screens, charts, research notes, and educational examples do not guarantee future results.
Your results may differ from any examples shown on the website.
5. Market Data Can Be Incomplete or Delayed
Market data is not perfect. Prices, financial ratios, COT data, company information, charts, calculations, and third-party data may contain errors, delays, omissions, or inaccuracies.
Python-generated outputs, dashboards, screeners, and automated research tools can also produce incomplete or incorrect results.
You should verify important information independently before relying on it.
6. COT Report Limitations
COT data can help users understand market positioning, but it has limitations.
COT reports may be delayed, revised, incomplete, or difficult to interpret. Positioning data does not predict price movements with certainty.
COT analysis should not be used as a standalone trading signal.
7. Stock Screening Limitations
Stock screens are based on selected data, filters, assumptions, and valuation metrics.
A stock that appears undervalued may remain undervalued for a long time or decline further. Low valuation metrics can also reflect real business problems, such as weak growth, high debt, poor margins, management issues, accounting concerns, or pressure within a sector.
Screening results should be treated as research ideas, not as buy or sell recommendations.
8. Model and Backtesting Risk
Backtests, models, scores, dashboards, and historical simulations are based on assumptions and past data.
They may not reflect real trading conditions such as transaction costs, taxes, liquidity, slippage, changing market regimes, or emotional decision-making.
A strategy that worked in the past may stop working in the future.
9. Forum and User Content
Forum discussions and community posts reflect the views of individual users.
User-generated content is not financial advice and should not be used as the sole basis for trading or investment decisions.
We may moderate the forum, but we do not guarantee the accuracy, quality, or completeness of user posts.
10. Third-Party Links and Services
Marketaxiom may link to third-party websites, data providers, brokers, tools, charting platforms, or other services.
We are not responsible for third-party content, data accuracy, availability, policies, services, or financial products.
Your use of third-party services is subject to their own terms, risks, and privacy policies.
11. No Broker or Fiduciary Relationship
Using Marketaxiom does not create a broker-client, advisor-client, fiduciary, or professional relationship.
We do not execute trades, manage portfolios, hold client funds, or provide individualized financial planning.
12. Your Responsibility
You are responsible for your own research, decisions, risk management, position sizing, portfolio construction, and financial outcomes.
You should understand the risks of any financial instrument before trading or investing.
If you are unsure whether a financial decision is appropriate for you, seek advice from a qualified professional.
13. Changes to This Disclaimer
We may update this Risk Disclaimer from time to time.
The latest version will be published on this page with an updated date.
If you continue using Marketaxiom after changes are posted, the updated Risk Disclaimer will apply.
