Risk disclaimer

Trading carries significant risk

Trading foreign exchange, contracts for difference and other leveraged instruments carries a high level of risk and can result in the loss of some or all of your capital. You should not trade with money you cannot afford to lose. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses. Make sure you understand the risks involved and seek independent advice if necessary.

Past performance is not a promise

Any results shown, whether backtested or from live accounts, describe the past. They do not guarantee, predict or imply future results. Markets change. A strategy that performed one way over one period can perform very differently over another. Otto has losing days, weeks and months, and we show them on the live results page on purpose.

Otto is software you run

Otto is an automated trading program (an Expert Advisor) that you install and run on your own MetaTrader account, at your own risk and under your own control. You decide whether to run it, which risk setting to use, and how much capital to allocate. You remain responsible for your account and your trades at all times.

Not financial advice

Nothing on this website or in Otto is financial, investment, legal or tax advice, or a recommendation to trade any instrument. We do not know your circumstances. Otto is a tool, not an adviser. If you need advice, speak to a suitably qualified, regulated professional.

No guarantee of profit

We do not promise that Otto will be profitable for you, and we never will. Anyone who promises guaranteed trading profits is not being honest with you. Your outcome depends on your settings, your broker, your account, and market conditions outside anyone's control.

Verification, not endorsement

Otto's trades are recorded on Karnek, a trade-tracking platform, read-only from the broker's data, so the record cannot be edited after the fact. A verifiable record is not a recommendation, an endorsement, or a prediction of your results.
