Risk disclosure for trading and automation.

Cryptocurrency trading is extremely volatile and carries a high risk of loss. You may lose your entire investment. The value of cryptocurrencies can fluctuate significantly in short periods, and prices may fall below purchase levels unexpectedly.

Cryptocurrency markets operate 24/7/365 and are subject to extreme price volatility driven by:

• Sudden market sentiment shifts
• Regulatory announcements and legal changes
• Large holder ("whale") activities
• Exchange technical issues or outages
• Liquidity shocks and cascading liquidations
• Macroeconomic events and geopolitical factors

If you or an automated strategy use leverage (margin trading), losses can exceed your initial investment. Leveraged positions can be liquidated rapidly during volatile market conditions, resulting in total position loss.

Historical strategy results, simulations, and backtests are NOT indicative of future results. Market conditions change, strategies that worked previously may fail, and model performance can deteriorate.

Automated execution follows the rules and permissions you approve. You remain responsible for reviewing:

• Which assets a rule may trade
• When it may enter or exit positions
• Position, loss, and exposure limits
• Changes to strategy configuration
• Whether leverage is permitted

Automated orders may not execute at the expected or displayed price due to:

• Network latency and API delays
• Market liquidity differences
• Order size variations
• Exchange execution speed differences
• High-volatility periods causing slippage

This can result in worse entry or exit prices and reduced profitability compared with a simulation or quoted route.

Live results can differ from a strategy model or backtest due to:

• Different account sizes and position scaling
• Timing differences between observation and execution
• Platform fees reducing your net returns
• Your custom risk control settings
• Exchange fees and spreads varying by user

A strategy may:

• Behave differently as market conditions change
• Increase effective risk when volatility rises
• Stop or reduce activity when inputs are stale
• Produce unexpected signals after configuration changes
• Fail closed when an exchange or data source is unavailable

Even successful traders experience significant drawdowns (peak-to-trough declines). During losing streaks, your account value may decline substantially before (or if) it recovers. You must have sufficient risk tolerance and capital to withstand these periods.

KLINEO relies on complex technology infrastructure. Potential failures include:

• Server outages preventing trade execution
• Internet connectivity issues
• Exchange API downtime or rate limits
• Software bugs causing incorrect trade execution
• Database failures or data corruption

Technical failures may result in missed trades, delayed exits, or incorrect position sizing, potentially causing losses.

Cryptocurrency exchanges themselves carry risks:

• Exchange hacks or security breaches
• Exchange insolvency or bankruptcy
• Regulatory shutdowns or restrictions
• Withdrawal freezes or delays
• Margin call liquidations during market stress

KLINEO is not responsible for exchange failures. Your funds are held on exchanges, not by KLINEO.

While KLINEO encrypts API keys and never requests withdrawal permissions, risks include:

• Potential unauthorized access if platform is compromised
• User error in API key configuration
• Phishing attacks targeting your credentials

Cryptocurrency regulation is evolving globally. Changes in laws or regulations may:

• Restrict or prohibit cryptocurrency trading in your jurisdiction
• Impose new taxes or reporting requirements
• Ban or limit automated trading services
• Require KLINEO to cease operations in certain regions

You are solely responsible for understanding and complying with tax obligations in your jurisdiction. Cryptocurrency trading may trigger capital gains taxes, income taxes, or other tax liabilities. Consult a tax professional.

KLINEO does not provide investment advice, financial planning, or recommendations. Displaying market, strategy, or performance data is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as investment advice or endorsement.

Never invest money you cannot afford to lose entirely. Do not use funds needed for:

• Living expenses, rent, or bills
• Retirement savings
• Emergency funds
• Debt repayment
• Children's education or essential expenses

Do not allocate all your funds to a single asset or trading strategy. Diversify across:

• Multiple strategies with distinct risk profiles
• Multiple assets and market conditions
• Different asset classes beyond crypto
• Traditional investments (stocks, bonds, real estate)

KLINEO provides risk control tools (max daily loss, max position size, etc.), but these do NOT eliminate risk. Markets can gap beyond stop-loss levels, and risk controls may fail during extreme volatility or technical issues.

Automated trading can create false confidence or panic. Common psychological pitfalls include:

• Stopping or overriding a strategy during drawdowns without a defined process
• Increasing position sizes after wins (overconfidence)
• Chasing strategies with recent gains
• Ignoring risk controls when winning
• Revenge trading after losses

Trading losses can cause significant stress, anxiety, and impact mental health. If trading causes emotional distress, interferes with daily life, or leads to addictive behavior, stop immediately and seek professional help.
