Legal Disclaimer & Risk Disclosure
TradeWithBot provides software tools that help automate order placement and monitoring on a connected brokerage account. Trading foreign exchange on margin involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
Disclaimer
Software tool only: TradeWithBot is a software platform that can transmit orders to your broker based on the settings you configure. It is not a broker, dealer, exchange, or custodian. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by OANDA.
Not financial advice: TradeWithBot does not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. Any content, configuration suggestions, analytics, or outputs are for informational purposes only. You are responsible for determining whether a strategy, configuration, and level of risk are appropriate for you.
No guaranteed performance: Past performance does not predict future results. Strategies can experience losses, including rapid losses during volatile conditions, news events, market gaps, and illiquid periods.
You control your account: You are solely responsible for your brokerage account, API credentials, configuration choices (lot size, max trades, schedule), and risk management. Always test with a practice account before using live funds.
Automated trading risk: Automated systems can place orders quickly and may behave unexpectedly due to software bugs, configuration mistakes, market conditions, connectivity issues, latency, or broker API behavior. You should actively monitor and understand how to pause/disable automation.
Third-party services: TradeWithBot relies on third-party services (e.g., brokers, pricing streams, cloud providers). Outages, API errors, latency, slippage, requotes, and order rejections can occur. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party systems.
API credentials: To operate, TradeWithBot uses the broker API credentials you provide to authenticate and transmit orders. While we treat credentials as sensitive and store them securely, no security measure is perfect. You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and promptly revoking/rotating tokens if you suspect compromise.
Limitation of liability: To the maximum extent permitted by law, TradeWithBot and its operators are not liable for trading losses, lost profits, missed opportunities, or any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the platform.
By using TradeWithBot, you acknowledge you understand the risks of automated trading and accept full responsibility for your trading decisions.
Risk disclosure (FX / margin)
Leverage amplifies outcomes: Trading FX on margin can result in rapid losses. You can lose a significant portion of your account value, potentially quickly.
Strategy risk: Grid and martingale-style position sizing can increase exposure as price moves against a position and may perform poorly in strong trends or volatile conditions.
Broker liquidation: If margin closeout thresholds are reached, your broker may close positions automatically. Liquidation can realize substantial losses and may occur without warning.
Privacy
We collect the minimum information required to provide the service (e.g., account identifiers, billing status, and operational telemetry). Your brokerage API credentials are treated as sensitive and are stored securely. We do not sell your personal data.
Terms
By using TradeWithBot, you agree to use the platform responsibly, maintain the security of your credentials, and comply with applicable laws and broker terms. Service availability is not guaranteed and features may change over time.
