High-Risk Warning
Trading foreign exchange (forex), CFDs, futures and other leveraged instruments carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. You can lose some or all of your invested capital, and in some account types you may lose more than your initial deposit. Do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
Copy trading does not reduce these risks — it automatically reproduces another trader's positions in your account, including their losses. Past results do not guarantee future results, and no profit is promised or implied.
2. General Trading Risk
Leveraged trading can move against you quickly. Small market movements can have a proportionally larger effect on your funds because of leverage, which works both for and against you. Market conditions such as gaps, low liquidity, news events and volatility can result in fills at prices materially different from those expected. You are solely responsible for any losses incurred in your trading account.
3. Copy Trading Risk
When you enable copy trading, your account automatically mirrors the trades of a separate trading account ("the master" or "signal source"). You should understand that:
- • The strategy, risk appetite and instruments traded by the master are not yours and may not match your goals, account size or risk tolerance.
- • A master account that has been profitable in the past can lose money — including large or rapid losses — at any time, and you will copy those losses.
- • The master can change strategy, increase risk, or stop trading without notice.
- • Differences in your broker, account currency, leverage, spreads, swaps, execution and the timing of copied orders mean your results will differ from the master's, sometimes significantly.
- • Copy trading is fully automated. Trades may be opened or closed in your account without any further action or confirmation from you while the feature is enabled.
4. Not Advice — You Control Your Account
FXVPS provides hosting and technology tools, including the optional copy trading feature. FXVPS does not provide investment, financial, legal or tax advice, does not manage your account, and does not act as a broker, money manager or fund. Nothing on this website or in the copy trading feature is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any instrument, or to follow any particular master account.
You retain full ownership and control of your trading account and your funds at all times. You decide whether to enable copy trading, which source to follow, and your own sizing and risk settings, and you can disable it at any time.
5. Execution, Latency & Technology Risk
Copy trading depends on a chain of systems — your VPS, your trading terminal, your broker, the internet, and our relay infrastructure. As a result:
- • Copied orders are not guaranteed to be executed at the same price, time or size as the master. Slippage, requotes, spread and latency will cause differences.
- • Connections can drop and reconnect. We reconcile and re-deliver instructions on reconnect to minimise impact, but copied trades may be delayed and, in rare cases (for example, during an extended outage on your side), an order may be missed.
- • Software, hardware, broker or network failures, maintenance, and force-majeure events can interrupt copying without notice.
Because of this, you should monitor your account regularly and not rely on copy trading running unattended. FXVPS does not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free, or perfectly synchronised execution.
6. Past & Demo Performance
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Any performance figures, statistics, charts or examples shown — whether from live or demo accounts — are historical, may be hypothetical or simulated, and do not guarantee that any account will achieve similar results. Demo (practice) account results in particular often do not reflect live trading because they do not account for real liquidity, slippage and emotional factors.
7. Position Sizing & Leverage
Copy trading can size positions relative to the master, by a fixed amount, or by a risk-based method that you configure. Incorrect sizing settings, insufficient account balance, or higher leverage than the master can lead to outsized losses, margin calls or a stop-out. You are responsible for choosing sizing and risk settings appropriate to your account and for ensuring your account has adequate margin.
8. Your Responsibilities
- • Use only risk capital — money you can afford to lose.
- • Understand the instruments and strategy you are copying before enabling it.
- • Set and review your own sizing and risk settings.
- • Monitor your account and your VPS, and disable copy trading if it no longer suits you.
- • Ensure your use of copy trading is permitted by your broker and lawful in your jurisdiction.
9. No Guarantee of Profit
FXVPS makes no representation or warranty that copy trading, any master account, or any strategy will be profitable or will avoid losses. The most likely outcome for any individual trader using leveraged products may be a loss of capital.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, FXVPS, its owners, employees and affiliates shall not be liable for any trading losses, lost profits, or any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages arising from or related to your use of the copy trading feature, the performance of any master account, or any delay, error, interruption or failure in execution. The copy trading feature is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind. This section is in addition to, and does not replace, the limitation of liability in our Terms of Service.
11. Regulatory Status
FXVPS is a technology and hosting provider. It is not a broker, a registered investment adviser, a portfolio manager, or a financial services firm, and it does not hold client funds. Nothing here is a solicitation or offer to buy or sell any financial instrument in any jurisdiction where such an offer would be unlawful. You are responsible for determining whether copy trading and the use of any signal source are lawful and appropriate for you in your jurisdiction, and for complying with all applicable laws and the terms of your broker.
12. Acknowledgement
By enabling copy trading, you confirm that you have read and understood this Risk Disclosure, that you accept the risks described, that you are using risk capital only, and that you are solely responsible for your trading decisions and their outcomes. If you do not understand or accept these risks, do not enable copy trading.
