DISCLAIMER REGARDING INVESTMENT DECISIONS AND TRADING
Decisions to buy, sell, hold or trade in securities, commodities and other investments
involve risk and are best made based on the advice of qualified financial professionals.
Any trading in securities or other investments involves a risk of substantial losses. The
practice of “Day Trading” involves particularly high risks and can cause you to lose
substantial sums of money. Before undertaking any trading program, you should consult
a qualified financial professional. Please consider carefully whether such trading is
suitable for you in light of your financial condition and ability to bear financial risks. Under
no circumstances shall we be liable for any loss or damage you or anyone else incurs as
a result of any trading or investment activity that you or anyone else engages in based
on any information or material you receive through Barchart.com or our Services.
