Risk Disclosure

1. General Risk Statement

Trading and investing in financial markets, including but not limited to equities, equity derivatives (futures and options), indices, and index derivatives, involve significant risk. The value of financial instruments can fluctuate rapidly and unpredictably. You may sustain a total loss of your invested capital. You should not invest or trade with money that you cannot afford to lose.

2. Derivatives Risk

Trading in derivative instruments, including futures and options on the NIFTY 50 index and individual equities, carries a particularly high level of risk due to the following factors:

• Leverage risk: Derivative instruments are leveraged products. A relatively small market movement can result in a proportionately much larger movement in the value of your position. This can work against you as well as for you. Losses can exceed your initial margin deposit.
• Time decay: Options contracts lose value as they approach their expiration date. If you purchase options, the passage of time alone can erode the value of your position even if the underlying asset price remains unchanged.
• Volatility risk: Changes in implied volatility can significantly affect the value of options positions, independent of the direction of the underlying asset.
• Liquidity risk: Under certain market conditions, it may be difficult or impossible to close out a position at a desired price. This risk is heightened for deep out-of-the-money options and contracts with low open interest.
• Gap risk: Prices can gap significantly between trading sessions due to overnight developments, economic events, or other factors, potentially resulting in substantial losses beyond stop-loss levels.
• Margin risk: If you trade futures on margin, you may be required to deposit additional funds at short notice to maintain your position. Failure to meet margin calls may result in your position being liquidated at a loss.
