Risk Disclosure

1Purpose of this disclosure

This Risk Disclosure supplements our Terms of Service and describes, specifically, the risks of using Soulquant to run an autonomous trading agent — including risks unique to AI-driven decision-making that a conventional trading-risk disclosure would not cover. You must read and accept this disclosure, separately from the Terms, before any system can be switched from paper (simulated) mode to live trading.

2Crypto & leverage trading risk

Cryptocurrency prices are highly volatile and can move sharply and unpredictably, including due to news, liquidity gaps, exchange outages, or manipulation. Trading crypto perpetual futures with leverage multiplies both gains and losses. You can lose some, most, or all of the capital allocated to a system — including through liquidation, where an exchange force-closes a leveraged position that moves against you, potentially wiping out the margin backing it. These are ordinary, foreseeable outcomes of the activity you are choosing to automate, not malfunctions.

3Autonomous AI agent risk

Soulquant's trading agent is powered by a large language model. Like any AI system, it can:

• misjudge market conditions — reading a chart, regime, or setup incorrectly even when the underlying data is correct;
• act on incomplete, delayed, or erroneous data from market-data feeds or the exchange;
• hallucinate — reach a conclusion or take an action that isn't properly grounded in the data it was given;
• behave unexpectedly due to a bug, an upstream model-provider change or outage, or an edge case not anticipated by its design;
• follow a strategy that is internally consistent but poorly suited to the market conditions that actually occur, especially one you wrote or edited yourself.

There is no guarantee that the agent will behave correctly, consistently, or as you intended, on any given run. We build guardrails — hard invariants, deterministic risk gates, a paper-mode default — precisely because we expect the agent to be wrong sometimes. Those guardrails reduce, but do not eliminate, the impact of a bad decision.

4Not an advisor or broker-dealer

Soulquant is self-directed automated tooling: you choose to use it, you choose or write the strategy it runs, and you choose to enable live trading. We are not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, or commodity trading advisor anywhere, we do not exercise discretionary authority over your account beyond executing the configuration you set, and nothing we provide is a personalized recommendation.

5Past performance is not predictive

Results from paper (simulated) trading, backtests, or any other system — yours or anyone else's — do not indicate or guarantee future results on your live account. Simulated environments cannot fully replicate live slippage, liquidity, latency, fees, or emotional/operational factors, and markets change over time in ways that make historical performance an unreliable guide.

6Your responsibility, always

You alone decide whether and when to switch a system live, how much capital to allocate to it, and what risk and aggressiveness settings to use. Once a system is live, it will trade according to those settings without asking you for per-trade approval. You are responsible for monitoring your systems, for understanding the strategy you've configured, and for turning a system back to paper mode or disabling it if you are no longer comfortable with it running live.

7Exchange & counterparty risk

Your funds sit on a third-party exchange, not with us. That exchange can experience outages, degraded APIs, withdrawal freezes, insolvency, or security breaches — all outside our control and outside the Service's ability to prevent. Order execution can also suffer from slippage (a fill worse than expected) during fast or illiquid markets, and liquidation mechanics are set by the exchange, not by us.

8No uptime or behavior guarantee

We do not guarantee that the Service will be available at any given moment, that a scheduled wakeup or price trigger will fire with zero delay, or that any specific safeguard will catch every failure mode. Infrastructure, network, and upstream AI-provider issues can all delay or prevent a run.

9Required acknowledgment

Before any system can go live, you will be asked to affirmatively acknowledge — via a checkbox, separate from general account sign-up — that you have read this Risk Disclosure, that you understand automated AI-driven trading can result in the total loss of the capital allocated to that system, and that you are enabling live trading at your own discretion and risk.
