Risk Disclosure

Trading in options, futures and other derivatives carries a high risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. When you sell options you can lose more than your initial outlay.

• Option buyers can lose 100% of the premium paid, often rapidly, through time decay (Theta) and volatility collapse (Vega).
• Option sellers face large, and in some cases theoretically unlimited, losses that can far exceed the premium received.
• Leverage magnifies both gains and losses; a small move in Nifty can cause a large percentage swing in an option's value.
• Gamma risk near expiry can turn a small adverse move into a large, accelerating loss.
• Technical indicators are descriptive, not predictive. No indicator, pattern or strategy on these sites forecasts future prices.
• Past performance, backtests and illustrative examples do not indicate future results.

Studies by regulators, including SEBI, have found that a large majority of individual traders in the equity F&O segment lose money. Never trade with money you cannot afford to lose. These sites are educational only — see our SEBI Disclaimer.
