Trading & Financial Risk Disclaimer
CFTC Rule 4.41 / Regulatory Notice • Mandatory Reading Before Live Deployment
High-Risk Investment Warning
Trading Foreign Exchange (Forex), Futures, Contracts For Difference (CFDs), Equities, Indices, and Digital Cryptocurrencies on margin carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. There is a possibility that you may sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment; therefore, you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.
1. Software Role & Non-Advisory Nature
TradeLynk is strictly an order-routing automation software bridge between third-party software platforms (TradingView and MetaTrader 5). TradeLynk does not provide investment advice, trading signals, financial recommendations, portfolio management, or brokerage services.
You alone are responsible for evaluating the merits and risks associated with any trading signals or indicators configured within your TradingView account.
2. CFTC Rule 4.41: Hypothetical & Simulated Performance Disclaimer
HYPOTHETICAL OR SIMULATED PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE CERTAIN LIMITATIONS. UNLIKE AN ACTUAL PERFORMANCE RECORD, SIMULATED RESULTS DO NOT REPRESENT ACTUAL TRADING. ALSO, SINCE THE TRADES HAVE NOT BEEN EXECUTED, THE RESULTS MAY HAVE UNDER- OR OVER-COMPENSATED FOR THE IMPACT, IF ANY, OF CERTAIN MARKET FACTORS, SUCH AS LACK OF LIQUIDITY. SIMULATED TRADING PROGRAMS IN GENERAL ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE DESIGNED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFIT OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN.
3. Technical Execution, Slippage & Latency
While TradeLynk is engineered for sub-15ms webhook ingestion and real-time execution, market conditions outside of our control can impact your trade fills:
- Broker Execution Slippage: Fast-moving markets (such as during major economic news releases like NFP or CPI) may result in price requotes or slippage between signal trigger and broker terminal fill.
- Connectivity Disconnections: Internet drops on your local computer or VPS, broker maintenance windows, or TradingView relay latency can delay or prevent webhook delivery.
- Demo Testing Mandate: We strongly urge every user to thoroughly test their automated indicators, symbol mappings, and dynamic lot sizes on a MetaTrader 5 Demo Account before committing real capital.
4. Prop-Firm Account Challenge Safeguards
Although TradeLynk provides proprietary safety guardrails — such as mandatory Stop Loss enforcement and max drawdown circuit breakers — the final responsibility for complying with proprietary trading firm rules (e.g. FTMO, FundedNext) rests solely with the trader. You must verify that your trading parameters strictly adhere to your firm's specific evaluation criteria.
