Risk disclaimer

All content on tastytrade, including guides, examples, calculators and glossary entries, is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial, investment, tax, legal or any other professional advice, and it is not a recommendation or solicitation to buy, sell or hold any security, cryptocurrency or other financial instrument.

Trading and investing in stocks, ETFs, options, cryptocurrencies, futures, CFDs and other leveraged products involves substantial risk, including the possible loss of all capital invested. With leveraged products you may lose more than your initial deposit. Cryptoassets are high-risk and largely unregulated in many jurisdictions, and you may not have access to investor protection or compensation schemes. Past performance and backtested or hypothetical results do not guarantee future results. Examples on this site are illustrative and use hypothetical numbers.

You are solely responsible for your own trading and investment decisions. Consider your objectives, financial situation and experience, and seek advice from an independent, appropriately licensed professional before making decisions.
