Below is an outline of the major risks and other significant aspects related to Cryptocurrencies trading:
Trading in Cryptocurrencies is VERY SPECULATIVE AND HIGHLY RISKY and is not suitable for all members of the general public but only for those investors who:
CENTURION INVEST will not provide Client(s) with any advice relating to Cryptocurrencies or make investment recommendations, including occasions where Client(s) may request such advice and/or recommendation. However, the CENTURION INVEST may provide Client(s) with information and tools, produced by third parties on an “as is” basis (i.e.the CENTURION INVEST does not approve, endorse, or affect the said information and/or tools), which may be indicative of trading trends and/or opportunities.
Client(s) accepts and understands that taking any actions, based on the information and/or tools provided by third parties, may result in losses and/or general reduction of value of Client(s)’ assets. CENTURION INVEST does not accept liability for any such losses resulting from actions taken by Client(s), based on the information and/or tools provided by third parties. It is important therefore that Client(s) understands the risks associated with trading in the relevant underlying assets because fluctuations in the price of the underlying asset will affect the profitability of relevant Cryptocurrencies transaction(s).
It is noted that the Company’s prices may be different from prices Risk Disclosure offered for trading elsewhere.
The prices displayed on the Company’s Trading Platform reflects the last known available price at the moment, prior to placing an order, however, the actual execution price of the order may differ. As such, the price that Client(s) receives when opening/closing a position may not directly correspond to real time market prices, at the point in time at which the transaction occurs. Information related to the past performance of financial instrument(s) does not guarantee current and/or further performance. The use of historical data should not be used as a guaranteed forecast of the corresponding future performance, for the relevant financial instrument(s). Volatility Some cryptocurrencies trade within wide “intraday ranges” with volatile price movements. Therefore, Client(s) must carefully consider trading since there is a high risk of losses. The price of cryptocurrencies, offered by the Company, is derived from the price of the relevant underlying assets. Some cryptocurrencies, due to the underlying assets and relevant markets can be highly volatile. The prices of cryptocurrencies may fluctuate rapidly and over wide ranges and may reflect unforeseeable events or changes in conditions, none of which can be controlled by the CENTURION INVEST or Client(s).
Under certain market conditions, it may be impossible for Client(s)’ order(s)to be executed at requested prices thus may lead to losses. The prices of cryptocurrencies are influenced by, amongst others, change in supply and demand relationships, governmental, agricultural, commercial, trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and the prevailing psychological characteristics of the relevant markets.
Liquidity risk refers to the capacity to readily monetize assets without suffering a significant discount in their prices. Client(s) accepts and acknowledges that the cryptocurrencies, offered by the Company, based on the relevant underlying assets, may be inherently illiquid or sometimes face persistent liquidity constraints due to adverse market conditions.
Off-exchange transactions in cryptocurrencies offered by the Company. The trading conditions of the relevant cryptocurrencies offered by the CENTURION INVEST and are in line with the trading conditions received from the Company’s liquidity providers. The cryptocurrencies offered by the CENTURION INVEST are in line with the legislative requirements and obligations to provide best execution to Client(s). The relevant transactions are not transferable to any other party. Some cryptocurrencies, offered by the Company, are based on exchange tradable underlined assets, which are highly liquid, however, the relevant cryptocurrencies involve greater risk considering being off-exchange or non- transferable, i.e. they can only be closed with the Company. On some occasions, it may be impossible to liquidate an existing open position, to assess the value of the position arising from an off-exchange transaction or to assess the exposure to risk.
The Trading Platform used by the Company, for transactions in Cryptocurrencies does not fall within the definition of a recognized exchange or Multilateral Trading Facility (“MTF”) or Organised Trading Facility (“OTF”). No Clearing House protection The transactions in the cryptocurrencies, offered by the Company, are not subject to an exchange or clearing house requirements/obligations however they are subjected to reporting obligations, under the applicable legislation. Suspensions of Trading Under certain trading conditions. Slippage often occurs during periods of higher volatility (for example due to news events) making an order, at a specific price and at the specific time, impossible to execute. In cases of market orders, as well as large in volume orders, the execution may be hard or impossible, at the requested priced due to the fact that there may be enough interest, from the other participants in the relevant market, to purchase/sell, for the order to be fulfilled at the desired price/time.
Non-deliverable It is understood that Client(s) has no rights and/or obligations related to the delivery of underlying assets traded as cryptocurrencies, with the Company. cryptocurrencies, offered for trading by the Company, are non-deliverable thus giving an opportunity to trade based on the price differences of the Cryptocurrencies.In other words, if the price of the underlying asset moves in Client(s)’ favor, Client(s) may achieve a profit, but an equally small adverse market movement can result in the loss of Client(s)’ entire investment, especially in cases of high volatility of the relevant financial instrument.
So, Client(s) should not enter into Cryptocurrencies transactions unless willing and capable to undertake the risks of losing entirely all the invested funds. Investing in Cryptocurrencies carries high risks and Client(s) should be aware of such risks before entering into transactions. Transactions in Cryptocurrencies may also have a contingent liability and Client(s) should be aware of such implications, as described further below. Usually a relatively modest proportion of the overall contract value.If the price of the underlying asset moves in Client(s)’ favour, Client(s) may achieve a considerable profit, but an equally small adverse market movement can not only quickly result in the loss of Client(s)’ entire investment.
Contingent Liability Investment Transactions Contingent liabilities are potential obligations that may be assumed by Client(s), depending on the outcome of an event that was beyond any person’s control and/or expectations. For example, in case whereby due to extreme volatility of the underlying asset, of the financial instrument offered by the Company, Client(s)may sustain losses that exceed the equity of relevant trading account(s.).Trading orders may not always be adequate, given that, in some cases, markets conditions make it impossible to execute such orders or their execution is based on slippage. CENTURION INVEST is doing its utmost to deal with such orders fairly and promptly however filling of such order(s) depends on the underlying asset and relevant market conditions. In fast-moving markets, the price for the level of Client(s)’ order(s) might not be available, or the market might move quickly and significantly away from the price level, before the order is filled. The swap values are variable and depend on the relevant financial instrument.
