Customer warrants that the Customer is willing and able, financially and otherwise, to assume the risk of Foreign Currency trading, and in consideration of POLOINVEST LIMITED carrying his/her Account(s), Customer agrees not to hold POLOINVEST LIMITED and its technology partners or technology providers responsible for losses incurred through following its trading recommendations or suggestions or those of its employees, agents or representatives.

Customer represents and warrants that Customer is willing and financially able to sustain such losses, and that the trading of Spot Foreign Exchange (Currencies) is a suitable investment vehicle for the Customer.
POLOINVEST LIMITED is not responsible for delays or partial or total failures in any online (electronic) trading platforms or any communications facility or other causes beyond POLOINVEST LIMITED reasonable direct control.

31.POLOINVEST LIMITED RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
Trading in margined foreign exchange involves a high degree of risk including the risk of loss of the Customer’s entire Risk Capital. Losses, in some cases, have the potential to extend beyond the Customers Account Value.
POLOINVEST LIMITED requires all the undersigned Customer(s) to analyze their financial objectives, financial status, investment constraints and tax situation to determine whether OTC Foreign Exchange trading is suitable. In addition, we require our Customers to carefully and acknowledge the POLOINVEST LIMITED Risk Disclosure Statement that outlines without limitation the risks associated with trading margined foreign exchange through POLOINVEST LIMITED.
By signing this Agreement the Customer understands and agrees that:
31.1. OTC MARGINED FOREIGN EXCHANGE TRADING INVOLVES A HIGH AMOUNT OF RISK AND IS HIGHLY SPECULATIVE
By signing the Risk Disclosure Statement, the Customer(s) agrees that they are in full understanding and willing to assume the legal, economic, and other risks associated with the trading in margined OTC Foreign Exchange, and are willing and able to assume the loss of their entire Risk Capital, defined as those funds, that if lost, would not change your lifestyle or your family’s lifestyle. As such, they further agree that margined OTC Foreign Exchange trading is not suitable for Retirement Funds. POLOINVEST LIMITED encourages Customers to closely manage outstanding open positions and to use prudent money management precautions such as, but not limited to, Stop Loss Orders.
31.2. EXCESSIVE LEVERAGE AVAILABLE WITH MARGINED OTC FOREIGN EXCHANGE CAN LEAD TO QUICK LOSSES
By signing the Risk Disclosure Statement, the Customer(s) aggress that using a high degree of leverage, defined as the use of a small amount of capital to control a larger amount of an Open Position, can result in large losses due to a price change(s) of open Foreign Currency Contract(s). POLOINVEST LIMITED encourages its Customers to use only that portion of leverage that the Customer is most comfortable with and to use money management precautions such as, but not limited to, Stop Loss Orders for the purpose of limiting risk. POLOINVEST LIMITED reserves, at its sole discretion, the right to reduce or increase the amount of leverage given on any Currency Pair at any time and without notice.
31.3. OTC MARGINED FOREIGN EXCHANGE TRADING EXPERIENCE PERIODS OF LIQUIDITY RISK
By signing the POLOINVEST LIMITED Risk Disclosure Statement, the Customer acknowledges that Liquidity Risk, resulting from decreased liquidity of a currency pair, is usually due to unanticipated changes in economic and/or political conditions. Customer also acknowledges that Liquidity Risk can affect the general market in that all participants experience the same lack of buyers and/or sellers. When liquidity decreases, Customers can expect, at the minimum, to have wider bid to ask spreads as the supply of available bid/ask prices, outstrips the demand.
Decreases in liquidity can also result in «Fast Market» conditions where the price of a currency pair moves sharply higher or lower or in a volatile up/down pattern without trading in an ordinary step-like fashion. In some instances, there may exist the possibility that a trading bid and/or ask price for a foreign exchange pair or pairs are not available (a situation where there is no liquidity). Although there may be instances when the aggregate OTC foreign exchange market enters a «Fast Market» situation or periods where liquidity is in short or no supply, it is important to note that, the Platform’s prices, bid/ask spreads and liquidity will reflect the prevailing interbank market liquidity.
Customer’s who do not have adequate margin will have their accounts liquidated:
Because of the leverage available with OTC Margined Foreign Exchange Trading and the potential for extreme volatility, POLOINVEST LIMITED reserves the sole discretionary right to liquidate Customer’s Account(s) should the Margin in the Account not be sufficient to cover the potential risk of loss.
POLOINVEST LIMITED graphically shows the Customer’s Liquidation Level on the Customers POLOINVEST LIMITED Margin Monitor.
31.4. THERE IS A COMMUNICATION RISK THAT THE CUSTOMER ASSUMES
Customer is solely responsible for making all appropriate arrangements with any telecommunications suppliers or, where access to the Platform is provided through a third party server, any such third party, necessary in order to obtain access to the Platform. POLOINVEST LIMITED will not accept orders over the telephone. In the event of an emergency loss of internet access, POLOINVEST LIMITED may be able to take a close order over the telephone. There exists the risk that the Customer will not be able to contact or make contact with the POLOINVEST LIMITED representative due to but not limited to, communication malfunction or any other malfunction.
The Customer acknowledges and agrees that they will hold harmless POLOINVEST LIMITED, its technology partners and technology providers for any loss or missed trading opportunity resulting from any communication problems the Customer may encounter.
Any given price by a POLOINVEST LIMITED representative over the telephone prior to execution is considered indicative. POLOINVEST LIMITED reserves the right to change the indicative price given over the phone if the actual dealing price is different due to market conditions, misquote or volatility.
POLOINVEST LIMITED is not responsible for Customer telephone orders if the Customer cannot be heard or understood by the POLOINVEST LIMITED representative due to, without limitation, accent, speech defect, faulty connection, or excessive background noise at the Customers location or at POLOINVEST LIMITED.

POLOINVEST LIMITED cannot guarantee that telephone orders given in a foreign language will be executed.
31.5. POLOINVEST LIMITED DOES NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIRD PARTY ACCOUNT MANAGERS
Should a Customer grant a Third Party Account Manager trading discretionary trading authority or control over a Customers Account, the Customer acknowledges that POLOINVEST LIMITED does not take any responsibility for any action done by that Third Party on the Customer’s behalf. The Customer grants Third Party trading authority for the Customers Account at it sole, and full risk. POLOINVEST LIMITED reserves the right to correct any deals executed on misquoting errors: In the case when a quoting error occurs that results in a Customer deal done at an off-market price, POLOINVEST LIMITED reserves the sole discretionary right to make the necessary corrections and adjustments to the Customer’s Account whether it be in the favor of the Customer or not in the Customer’s favor.

Any decision by the Customer to buy or sell a Foreign Currency pair is an independent decision by the Customer.

POLOINVEST LIMITED and it’s employees are not investment advisor(s) and has no fiduciary duty to Customer and therefore is not liable for any losses incurred by the Customer as a result of information or any recommendations made by POLOINVEST LIMITED or representative of POLOINVEST LIMITED.
Customer is at Risk if POLOINVEST LIMITED should go out of Business. There is no guarantee that POLOINVEST LIMITED as a business will be profitable. Consequently, there exists a credit risk that POLOINVEST LIMITED may be subject to losses, which could, in turn, jeopardize the capital that the Customers have in their Accounts.
Customer acknowledges that in the event of insolvency, the Customer can only look to POLOINVEST LIMITED for performance and return of all Collateral and Margin that the Customer may have at POLOINVEST LIMITED.
