Risk Warning
Risk Disclosure Statement
At Hudson Ridge, we offer access to leveraged trading across forex, indices, commodities, futures, cryptocurrencies, and other CFD-based financial instruments. While these markets present significant opportunities, they also carry a high degree of risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
Market volatility, leverage, and liquidity factors can result in substantial gains—or significant losses. Clients must be aware that trading with margin may require additional funding to maintain open positions, and that failure to meet margin requirements may lead to automatic liquidation and loss of capital.
We strongly encourage all users to evaluate their investment objectives, financial standing, risk tolerance, and level of experience before engaging in trading activity.
Disclaimer: This page provides a general overview of potential risks. It is not exhaustive and does not replace personalized financial advice. Key Trading Risks
1. Leverage Risk
Leverage can amplify both profits and losses. While it allows for larger
exposure
with limited capital, it may result in losing more than the initial investment.
2. Cryptocurrency Counterparty Risk
When trading digital assets on Hudson Ridge, the platform acts as the
counterparty
to your transactions. In cases of insolvency, there is no guarantee of repayment
or
protection of outstanding obligations.
3. Market Volatility Risk
Digital currencies are highly volatile. Rapid price fluctuations may result in
sharp, unpredictable losses. Hudson Ridge does not guarantee the future price or
value of any cryptocurrency.
4. Liquidity Risk
Some digital assets may experience low liquidity, making it difficult to exit or
enter positions. Hudson Ridge reserves the right to delist or suspend trading
pairs
at its discretion, without prior notice.
5. Security Risk
Digital assets held on any platform are subject to cybersecurity threats such as
hacking, ransom attacks, and unauthorized access. In the event of a breach,
recovery
of lost funds may be impossible.
6. Technology Risk
Blockchain infrastructure and peer-to-peer systems are still evolving. Systemic
vulnerabilities or technical failures may disrupt access to or control over
digital
assets at any time.
7. Operational Risk
Unexpected downtime or technical disruptions can affect the execution or
processing
of trades, resulting in missed opportunities or unplanned losses.
8. Regulatory Risk
Cryptocurrency markets are subject to evolving global regulation. Legal changes
may
restrict, ban, or reclassify digital assets, potentially leading to total loss
of
value or inability to trade.
9. Market Manipulation Risk
Market manipulation, including "pump and dump" schemes or artificial price
control,
can impact digital asset prices. Users should monitor markets and act
cautiously.
10. Value Risk
Cryptocurrencies are not backed by governments or central banks. Their value is
driven by market sentiment and technological trust, making price stability
unpredictable.
11. Encryption and Private Key Risk
Control of your private keys is solely your responsibility. Loss, theft, or
misuse
of your keys may result in irreversible loss of funds or personal data.
