Trading and investing in stocks, exchange-traded funds, options, and other financial instruments involves substantial risk of loss.
You can lose some or all of the money committed to a trade or investment. Certain strategies may expose a trader to losses greater than the amount initially invested.
PULSE TARGET AI DOES NOT GUARANTEE PROFITS, WINNING TRADES, TARGET ACHIEVEMENT, ACCURACY OF PREDICTIONS, OR ANY PARTICULAR INVESTMENT RESULT.
This Trading and Investment Risk Disclosure explains material risks associated with using market information, software-generated analytics, artificial intelligence outputs, statistical measurements, trading signals, news analysis, technical analysis, and other features provided through Pulse Target AI.
This Disclosure should be read together with the Pulse Target AI Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Subscription & Cancellation Policy.
Financial markets are inherently uncertain.
Prices can move rapidly and unpredictably in response to economic events, company announcements, earnings reports, analyst actions, interest rates, government actions, geopolitical developments, market liquidity, trading activity, unexpected news, or factors that cannot reasonably be predicted in advance.
No software platform, analyst, algorithm, artificial intelligence system, technical indicator, statistical model, or trading methodology can eliminate these risks.
A position in a stock, ETF, option, or other financial instrument can decline significantly in value.
Depending on the instrument and strategy used, you may lose some or all of the capital committed to a position.
You should not trade or invest money that you cannot afford to lose.
Some trading strategies, including certain short-selling, leveraged, margin, derivatives, futures, or options strategies, may expose a trader to losses greater than the amount initially committed to the transaction.
Users are responsible for understanding the maximum and potential loss characteristics of any strategy before entering a transaction.
Pulse Target AI does not guarantee:
Pulse Target AI may generate or display information based on market data, news, technical measurements, price reactions, trend measurements, volatility, volume, expected moves, statistical calculations, artificial intelligence, or proprietary analytical systems.
These outputs represent analytical information generated from the data available to the system at a particular time.
They are not guarantees that the market will behave in the indicated direction.
Users are solely responsible for deciding whether, when, and how to enter, manage, size, hedge, modify, or exit a position.
Pulse Target AI does not make trades on behalf of users through the general analytical Services described in this Disclosure.
A user should independently evaluate market conditions and the user's own financial circumstances before making a trading or investment decision.
Pulse Target AI does not, through its general market-intelligence Services, obtain all information necessary to determine whether a particular transaction is financially suitable for an individual user.
The platform does not ordinarily evaluate a user's:
Users should obtain professional advice where appropriate.
The Services are designed as generalized and impersonal market- intelligence, analytical, and educational tools.
Nothing in this Disclosure is intended to make a legal determination as to whether a particular Company activity constitutes investment advisory, brokerage, dealer, publisher, educational, software, or other regulated activity.
Such determinations depend upon applicable law and the actual activities performed by the Company.
Pulse Target AI may use classifications, labels, alerts, or signals identified as "BLUE" or similar proprietary terminology.
A BLUE signal represents the output of the Company's analytical system when specified internal conditions are satisfied.
A BLUE signal does not mean that:
A BLUE signal may reverse, fail, become outdated, or be followed by a substantial adverse move.
Terms such as BULLISH, BEARISH, NEUTRAL, BUY-side indication, SELL-side indication, positive, negative, strong, weak, confirmed, or similar terminology describe analytical classifications.
They do not guarantee future price direction.
Market direction may reverse immediately after a signal is produced.
Any confidence score displayed by Pulse Target AI is an analytical measurement produced by the system.
A confidence score is not equivalent to a guaranteed probability of a profitable trade.
For example, a displayed confidence measurement should not be understood to mean that an individual transaction has an assured mathematical probability of producing a profit equal to that displayed percentage.
Target probabilities are estimates produced using available information, models, historical relationships, or other analytical methods.
They are subject to model error, market regime changes, incomplete data, unexpected events, and other limitations.
A probability estimate is not a promise or guarantee that a target will be reached.
An "Expected Move" or similar measurement represents an estimate or analytical calculation, not a guaranteed minimum or maximum future price movement.
Actual movement may be:
Pulse Target AI may analyze financial news, headlines, company announcements, or other information.
A classification of news as positive, negative, bullish, bearish, important, strong, weak, or similar terminology represents the result of an analytical process.
The market may react differently from the apparent sentiment of a news event.
Positive news may be followed by a declining price, and negative news may be followed by a rising price.
News and information supplied by third parties may contain errors, omissions, delays, corrections, incomplete context, or subsequent developments.
Initial headlines may differ materially from later reports.
Users should not assume that an early headline contains all information relevant to a trading decision.
Price-reaction measurements reflect observable market behavior during particular periods and according to available data.
A past or current price reaction does not guarantee continuation of that reaction.
A security may reverse direction rapidly after a reaction measurement has been calculated.
Technical indicators are based on historical or current price, volume, time, volatility, or related market information.
Technical indicators may generate false signals, lag market conditions, conflict with one another, or become less useful during changing market regimes.
Support, resistance, moving averages, VWAP, Bollinger Bands, trend measurements, momentum measurements, volume measurements, and similar tools do not guarantee future price behavior.
A strong measured trend can weaken or reverse without advance warning.
A historical or current trend measurement should not be interpreted as assurance that the trend will continue.
Volume and relative-volume measurements may assist in understanding market activity but do not predict future price direction with certainty.
Volume data may differ between vendors, exchanges, feeds, venues, or market sessions.
Pulse Target AI may use artificial intelligence, machine learning, statistical models, automated classification, or rules-based systems.
Such systems can be wrong.
AI or model outputs may:
All models depend on assumptions, inputs, parameters, training data, historical relationships, or programmed logic.
Market relationships can change.
A model that performed well historically may perform poorly under future market conditions.
Historical results do not guarantee future performance.
A historical success rate, win rate, target rate, average movement, average favorable excursion, average adverse excursion, or similar statistic describes historical observations only.
Future results may differ materially.
Backtested results are hypothetical and are not equivalent to actual live trading results.
Backtests may be affected by:
Actual results may be materially worse than backtested results.
Simulated or hypothetical performance has inherent limitations.
Unlike actual trading, simulated results may not reflect actual market liquidity, execution difficulty, emotional decision-making, slippage, partial fills, trading restrictions, or other real-world conditions.
Measurements such as Maximum Favorable Excursion ("MFE") and Maximum Adverse Excursion ("MAE") are retrospective or analytical measurements.
They do not represent guaranteed exit prices and do not establish that a user could actually have executed a trade at the most favorable historical price observed.
A displayed market price does not guarantee that an order can be executed at that price.
Actual execution may differ because of:
Slippage occurs when the actual execution price differs from the expected or displayed price.
Slippage may significantly reduce profits or increase losses, especially during periods of high volatility, low liquidity, or rapid market movement.
A large bid-ask spread can materially affect the cost and profitability of entering or exiting a position.
This risk can be particularly significant in options, thinly traded securities, and extended-hours trading.
Some securities or contracts may have insufficient liquidity to allow a user to enter or exit a position promptly at a desirable price.
Liquidity may deteriorate suddenly.
A security may open or trade substantially above or below its prior market price.
Stop-loss orders, alerts, or analytical thresholds do not guarantee an exit at the expected price when a market gaps.
Stop-loss orders, trailing stops, profit targets, and other risk controls may reduce certain risks but cannot eliminate market risk.
A stop order may execute at a materially different price from the stop price during rapid market movement or gaps.
Trading before or after regular market hours may involve materially different conditions from regular-session trading.
Risks may include:
A price observed during extended hours may differ materially from a security's next regular-session opening price.
Premarket trading can experience limited liquidity and substantial price movement in response to overnight developments, earnings, economic releases, analyst actions, or other events.
Signals generated during premarket conditions may behave differently from signals generated during regular market hours.
After-hours markets may react rapidly to earnings reports, corporate announcements, and other information released after the regular market close.
Lower liquidity and wider spreads may increase execution risk.
Holding a position overnight exposes the user to events occurring while regular markets are closed.
A position may open the following trading day at a substantially different price.
Trading in a security may be halted or restricted by an exchange, regulatory authority, broker, or other market operator.
During a halt, users may be unable to enter or exit a position.
When trading resumes, prices may move significantly.
Options are complex financial instruments and involve risks that differ from direct ownership of stock.
An option buyer can lose the entire premium paid for the option.
Options may decline rapidly because of changes in:
Options have expiration dates.
An option can expire worthless even if the user's directional thesis appeared reasonable at an earlier time.
The value of an option may decline as expiration approaches because of time decay.
Options can provide economic exposure to an underlying security that is large relative to the premium paid.
This leverage can magnify percentage gains but can also magnify percentage losses.
Writing or selling options may involve risks materially different from purchasing options.
Certain uncovered option-writing strategies may expose a trader to very large or, in some circumstances, theoretically unlimited losses.
Users considering such strategies should understand the applicable broker requirements and official options risk disclosures.
Options may be exercised or assigned in accordance with the rules applicable to the particular contract and brokerage account.
Exercise or assignment can create an underlying stock position, obligations to deliver securities, cash requirements, margin requirements, or other consequences.
Option prices may have wide bid-ask spreads or limited liquidity.
A displayed theoretical value, midpoint, last trade, bid, or ask does not guarantee that a user can execute at that price.
Stocks and ETFs can decline substantially and may become worthless or nearly worthless.
ETFs may also present risks related to tracking error, liquidity, underlying holdings, market structure, leverage, inverse exposure, or other characteristics.
Leveraged and inverse products may behave differently from ordinary stocks or ETFs.
Compounding and daily-reset features can produce returns over longer periods that differ significantly from a simple multiple of the underlying asset's cumulative return.
Short selling can expose a trader to substantial losses because a security's price may increase significantly.
Additional risks may include borrow costs, inability to maintain a borrow, forced buy-ins, margin requirements, and corporate actions.
Using borrowed funds or leverage increases both potential gains and potential losses.
A broker may require additional collateral or liquidate positions when account equity falls below required levels.
Broker liquidation may occur at unfavorable prices.
Concentrating a large percentage of trading capital in a single security, industry, strategy, or correlated group of positions can increase the magnitude of losses.
Even a strategy with favorable historical statistics can produce large financial losses if positions are oversized.
Users remain responsible for determining appropriate position size.
Examples demonstrating compounded trading returns are mathematical illustrations only.
They should not be interpreted as a representation that a user can consistently achieve the assumed daily return.
Losses also compound and may substantially reduce capital.
Pulse Target AI depends on electronic information.
Data can be:
An analytical system using incorrect or incomplete input data may generate an incorrect output.
Market data displayed by different brokers, exchanges, vendors, or data feeds may differ because of coverage, timing, aggregation, venue access, consolidation methodology, or other factors.
Pulse Target AI does not guarantee that its data will exactly match a particular brokerage or third-party platform.
News providers may differ in speed, coverage, wording, categorization, corrections, and availability.
The absence of a news item from Pulse Target AI does not establish that no relevant news exists.
There may be a delay between:
Even small delays may be significant in rapidly moving markets.
Internet failures, network congestion, cloud outages, DNS failures, telecommunications problems, local connectivity failures, or user-device problems may prevent or delay access to the Services.
Software defects, hardware failures, configuration errors, database errors, operating-system problems, corrupted files, or other technical issues may affect the Services.
Cyberattacks, denial-of-service attacks, malware, credential theft, unauthorized access, vendor compromise, or other cybersecurity incidents may impair availability or integrity of electronic systems.
Pulse Target AI uses security measures designed to reduce risk but cannot guarantee that every cyberattack or security event can be prevented.
Pulse Target AI may rely on third parties for infrastructure, market data, news, payments, email, connectivity, or other functions.
An interruption or change affecting a third-party provider may affect Pulse Target AI even when the Company's own software is operating properly.
A user's brokerage firm controls matters such as:
Pulse Target AI is not responsible for independent actions or failures of a user's broker.
A broker may reject an order, restrict a security, limit options trading, limit order types, impose margin requirements, restrict extended-hours trading, or otherwise prevent a transaction.
Users are responsible for understanding their broker's rules.
Regulators, exchanges, clearing organizations, brokers, or governmental authorities may change rules, restrict transactions, halt trading, change margin requirements, or take other actions affecting markets or users.
Earnings reports, mergers, acquisitions, stock splits, reverse splits, dividends, bankruptcies, regulatory announcements, management changes, and other corporate events may cause substantial price movements.
Interest-rate decisions, inflation reports, employment data, economic releases, government policy, and other macroeconomic events may cause rapid and unpredictable market movement.
Wars, international disputes, sanctions, elections, terrorism, natural disasters, pandemics, or other geopolitical events may materially affect markets.
Emotional decision-making can materially affect trading results.
Fear, greed, overconfidence, revenge trading, excessive frequency, failure to follow risk limits, and similar behavior may increase losses.
Software cannot eliminate a user's behavioral risk.
An alert may be delayed, missed, unavailable, duplicated, or received after relevant market conditions have changed.
Users should not depend on an alert as the sole method of monitoring a position.
Colors, labels, gauges, charts, percentages, scores, and other dashboard elements are visual representations of analytical information.
A particular color or visual emphasis does not guarantee a trading outcome.
Courses, books, handbooks, examples, demonstrations, presentations, charts, and educational materials are intended for education and information.
Educational examples may simplify actual market conditions and should not be treated as guaranteed trading methods.
If Pulse Target AI publishes testimonials, examples, or descriptions of user experiences, individual results may vary.
A successful experience by one user does not guarantee comparable results for another user.
Any performance statistics presented by Pulse Target AI should be understood according to the methodology and sample on which they are based.
Results may vary materially depending on:
A win rate or other statistic can increase or decrease as new observations are added.
Statistics calculated from a small sample may be particularly unstable.
Users should not assume that any single score, signal, statistic, indicator, probability, expected move, or measurement is sufficient by itself to determine whether a trade should be made.
A signal or analysis reflects information available at a particular moment.
Market conditions may change immediately thereafter.
Users should consider the time at which information was generated before relying on it.
Pulse Target AI does not guarantee continuous analytical coverage of every security, news event, exchange, trading venue, market session, or market condition.
Maintenance, upgrades, emergency repairs, infrastructure changes, security work, or vendor maintenance may temporarily reduce or suspend access.
Despite testing and monitoring, software and analytical errors are possible.
Users should independently verify important information before risking capital.
Financial-market, technology, artificial-intelligence, privacy, and data- licensing laws and regulations may change.
Changes may require Pulse Target AI to modify, restrict, or discontinue features.
The user remains financially responsible for transactions entered through the user's brokerage or financial accounts.
Subscription to Pulse Target AI does not shift responsibility for trading losses to Pulse Target AI.
Trading and investing may create tax consequences.
Pulse Target AI does not determine a user's individual tax obligations through the general Services.
Users should consult a qualified tax professional where appropriate.
Users should consider obtaining advice from appropriately qualified financial, investment, legal, tax, or accounting professionals when the user's circumstances warrant such advice.
Users who trade options, use margin, short securities, or participate in extended-hours markets should review risk disclosures and account agreements supplied by their brokerage firm and applicable market or clearing organizations.
Each user is responsible for determining the amount of financial risk the user is willing and able to bear.
The existence of an analytical signal does not mean that taking the trade is appropriate for the user's financial circumstances.
Diversification may reduce certain concentration risks but does not eliminate the possibility of investment loss.
During extreme or abnormal market conditions, normal relationships between price, liquidity, volatility, spreads, news, and technical indicators may break down.
Analytical models may perform materially differently during such periods.
Changes in exchange rules, trading venues, market-data systems, market participants, regulatory requirements, or technology may alter historical market relationships.
Users should not structure their financial affairs on the assumption that Pulse Target AI will always be available at every moment when a trading decision must be made.
Users remain responsible for monitoring open positions independently.
Subscription fees compensate Pulse Target AI for access to software, analytics, and related Services.
Payment of a subscription fee does not create a guarantee of trading profit sufficient to recover the cost of the subscription.
A Pulse Target AI subscription is not insurance against financial loss.
Pulse Target AI does not reimburse users merely because a signal, prediction, expected move, analytical classification, or trade based upon platform information is unsuccessful.
