Risk Disclosure
Last updated: 23 September 2026
Read this before you use live mode
PulseTrader Pro places real orders with real money on your own exchange account when you switch it to live mode. This document explains what can go wrong. It is deliberately blunt.
1. You can lose money
Cryptocurrency is volatile and high risk. Prices can fall sharply and without warning. You can lose some or all of the money you trade. Only use money you can genuinely afford to lose. Do not use borrowed money, and do not use money you need for anything else.
2. This is not advice
We do not provide financial product advice, and nothing in the Software or on our website is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold anything. We do not know your objectives, financial situation or needs, and nothing the Software does is tailored to them. If you want advice, speak to a licensed financial adviser.
3. Past performance means nothing about the future
Any track record, backtest, paper-trading result or performance figure we publish describes what already happened. It is not a forecast, projection or guarantee.
- Backtests and paper results are simulated. They do not fully reflect slippage, partial fills, outages, or how a real order moves a real market.
- A strategy that worked in past conditions can lose money in future conditions.
- Our published results come from our own account; yours will differ — different balance, different timing, different coins, different fees.
4. Your stop-loss only runs while the app is open
This is the most commonly misunderstood risk, so read it twice.
Spot exchanges do not hold a stop-loss for an open position the way a futures exchange can. The Software enforces the trailing stop itself, in software, each time it scans.
That means: if your computer is switched off, asleep, offline, or you have closed the app, the stop is not running. A position can fall a long way with nothing protecting it. If you intend to hold positions, keep the app running on a machine that stays awake and online.
5. Automation fails
The Software depends on your computer, your internet connection and a third-party exchange's API. Any of these can fail, stall or return bad data. Automated systems can behave unexpectedly, including in ways that lose money. Bugs are possible despite our testing.
The Software includes a stop-trading switch. Use it if something looks wrong, and check your exchange account directly — the exchange is always the source of truth, not our display.
6. You are responsible for every trade
Trades the Software places are placed on your account, by you, using a tool you chose to run. You are responsible for them. You choose whether to go live, how much to fund, which coins to enable, and when to stop.
7. Third-party exchange risk
Your money sits with a third-party exchange, not with us. We have no control over it. Exchanges can suffer outages, restrict withdrawals, be hacked, change fees or rules, or fail entirely. We never hold your funds, and we cannot recover them.
8. Key security
The Software requires trade-only API keys and refuses any key with withdrawal permission, so it cannot move funds off your account. Your keys are encrypted on your own computer and are never sent to us. However, you remain responsible for the security of your own computer and your exchange account.
9. Tax
You are responsible for your own tax. Trading generates taxable events. Keep records — your exchange is the authoritative source. Talk to an accountant.
10. No guarantee of profit
We do not guarantee any profit, income, return, or that the Software will be profitable at all. Anyone who guarantees returns in trading is not being honest with you.
