Risk Disclosure

1. Important Notice

Trading digital assets, cryptocurrencies, and other financial instruments involves a high degree of risk and may result in substantial or complete loss of your funds.
15BOT provides software, technology, and automated trading tools designed to assist users in implementing their own trading strategies. The use of 15BOT does not guarantee profits, returns, or protection against losses.
You should carefully consider your financial circumstances, investment objectives, level of experience, and risk tolerance before using 15BOT or engaging in any trading activity.
Only trade with funds that you can afford to lose.

2. No Guarantee of Profit

15BOT does not guarantee any particular level of performance, profit, return, or income.
Any examples of trading results, historical performance, backtested results, simulated results, projected returns, or performance illustrations displayed on the 15BOT platform or in promotional materials are provided for informational purposes only.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Actual trading results may differ significantly from historical, simulated, or backtested performance.
Market conditions can change rapidly, and a trading strategy that has performed well in the past may perform poorly or result in losses in the future.

3. Cryptocurrency and Digital Asset Market Risk

Cryptocurrency and digital asset markets can be highly volatile and unpredictable.
The value of digital assets may increase or decrease significantly within a short period of time. Prices may be affected by, among other things:

  • Market supply and demand
  • Liquidity conditions
  • Market sentiment
  • Regulatory or legal developments
  • Government policies
  • Economic conditions
  • Technological developments
  • Security incidents
  • Exchange-related events
  • News and other market events

You may lose some or all of the funds allocated to trading.

4. Automated Trading Risk

15BOT may provide automated trading functions that can place, modify, or cancel orders according to the trading strategy and parameters selected or configured by you.
Automated trading does not eliminate market risk.
Once activated, a trading bot may continue executing trades according to its configured parameters, even when market conditions change rapidly or become unfavorable.
You are responsible for reviewing your trading strategy and settings before activating automated trading and for monitoring your account and trading activity where appropriate.

5. Strategy and Parameter Risk

Trading results may depend significantly on the strategy, parameters, and settings selected by the user.
Incorrect or unsuitable settings may result in unexpected trading activity or losses.
Examples include, but are not limited to:

  • Incorrect entry or exit parameters
  • Inappropriate grid ranges
  • Excessive trading frequency
  • Insufficient available funds
  • Incorrect stop-loss or take-profit settings
  • Excessive exposure to a particular asset
  • Failure to adjust a strategy when market conditions change

15BOT does not guarantee that any particular strategy or configuration will be suitable for you.

6. Market Volatility and Slippage

During periods of high volatility or low liquidity, the price at which an order is executed may differ from the expected price.
This difference may occur due to market movement, order-book conditions, liquidity limitations, or execution delays.
Such differences, commonly referred to as slippage, may negatively affect trading performance.
A trading strategy may also experience increased losses during sudden market movements, price gaps, or abnormal market conditions.

7. Liquidity Risk

Some digital assets or trading pairs may have limited liquidity.
Insufficient liquidity may make it difficult to execute an order at the desired price or within the expected timeframe.
Large orders or rapidly changing market conditions may have a greater impact on execution prices.
You should consider the liquidity of the relevant trading pair before enabling a trading strategy.

8. Exchange and Third-Party Platform Risk

15BOT may interact with third-party cryptocurrency exchanges, brokers, custodians, payment providers, or other external services.
The availability, functionality, security, and performance of such third-party services are outside 15BOT's complete control.
Trading may be affected by:

  • Exchange downtime
  • System maintenance
  • Withdrawal restrictions
  • Trading restrictions
  • Account suspension
  • API limitations
  • Order execution failures
  • Exchange security incidents
  • Liquidity problems
  • Changes to exchange policies or fees
  • Regulatory actions

15BOT is not responsible for losses resulting from events occurring on third-party platforms, except to the extent required by applicable law.

9. API and Account Access Risk

Where 15BOT uses API connections or other integrations to interact with a third-party exchange or trading account, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials, API keys, and authentication information.
You should only provide permissions that are necessary for the intended functionality. Where supported, users should consider disabling withdrawal permissions for API keys used with automated trading services.
You are responsible for promptly revoking or changing credentials if you suspect unauthorized access or compromise.

10. Cybersecurity and Technology Risk

The use of online trading platforms and automated software involves technological and cybersecurity risks.
These may include:

  • Hacking
  • Malware
  • Phishing
  • Unauthorized access
  • Account compromise
  • Software bugs
  • Network failures
  • Server failures
  • Data transmission errors
  • Internet connectivity problems
  • API failures
  • Distributed denial-of-service attacks
  • Other unforeseen technical events

Although reasonable measures may be implemented to maintain security and reliability, no online system can be guaranteed to be completely secure or uninterrupted.

11. System Downtime and Technical Failures

15BOT may occasionally experience interruptions, delays, maintenance, technical issues, or service outages. Technical problems may prevent, delay, or incorrectly process trading instructions.
During periods of system interruption, the platform may be unable to execute, modify, or cancel orders as intended.
You acknowledge that technical failures may result in financial losses.

12. Trading Fees and Other Costs

Trading may involve fees and costs imposed by exchanges, brokers, payment providers, network operators, or other third parties.
These may include:

  • Trading fees
  • Withdrawal fees
  • Network fees
  • Funding fees
  • Spread
  • Slippage
  • Other transaction-related costs

Such costs may reduce or eliminate potential trading profits. Users are responsible for understanding the applicable fees before trading.

13. Leverage and Liquidation Risk

Where leveraged trading or derivative products are available through an integrated third-party platform, additional risks may apply. Leverage can magnify both potential gains and potential losses.
Adverse market movements may result in the liquidation of positions and the loss of some or all of the funds allocated to the relevant position.
You should fully understand the risks associated with leverage before using any leveraged product.
