Risk Disclosure
Last updated 2 October 2026
Trading is risky. You can lose money quickly - including more than you expect and, with some leveraged products, more than you deposit. Only trade with money you can afford to lose. This Risk Disclosure explains the main risks of trading and of using Radarline. It is not a complete list of every risk. Read it before you buy or use the Services, and consider getting independent professional advice.
1. Radarline gives general information, not advice
Every call, level, score and signal is general information. It does not consider your objectives, financial situation or needs. See the General Advice Warning.
2. What our testing actually shows
We test on historical data the system did not see while it was built, with estimated trading costs included. On that data, pullback signals won about two trades in three and breakout signals about one in three (with larger winners). On the final unseen year, 4-hour signals averaged a small positive result per trade, daily signals a smaller one, and on daily charts our previous engine did better. Below one hour we found no edge after costs. The full results, including the weak spots, are on the Performance page.
- These are historical and hypothetical results. Costs are estimates; your spreads, commissions, funding, slippage and taxes may be higher and can turn a small edge into a loss.
- Results vary between markets, periods and settings. Your results will differ.
- Winning two trades in three still means a loss in every three. Breakout signals lose most of the time and have lost more than 30 trades in a row in testing. At high risk per trade, streaks like that can wipe out a large part of an account.
- Models can stop working when market behaviour changes ("regime change"), and past patterns may not repeat ("overfitting").
3. Leveraged products and CFDs
Contracts for difference, margin FX and other leveraged products magnify both gains and losses. Small price moves can cause large losses, margin calls and automatic close-outs. ASIC has reported that most retail clients who trade CFDs lose money. Understand how your broker's margin, stop-outs, overnight funding and negative balance protection work before trading.
4. Crypto-assets
- Crypto-assets are highly volatile, can fall to zero, and are not protected like bank deposits.
- Transactions on a blockchain are usually irreversible. Mistakes, hacks and scams generally cannot be undone.
- Exchanges, wallets, bridges and smart contracts can fail, be hacked or freeze funds.
- Regulation and tax treatment of crypto-assets are changing and differ by country.
5. New Solana tokens and memecoins - extreme risk
New tokens launched on platforms like pump.fun and traded on terminals like Axiom are among the riskiest assets that exist. Common dangers include:
- Rug pulls - creators or insiders sell their holdings or remove liquidity, crashing the price to near zero within minutes.
- Honeypots and traps - tokens you can buy but not sell, tokens that can be frozen, minted without limit, or moved by a hidden delegate.
- Bundled and sniped launches - insiders buy most of the supply in the first block through many wallets, then sell into later buyers.
- Thin liquidity - large price impact on entry and exit; you may get far less than the displayed price.
- Front-running and MEV - bots can trade ahead of you and worsen your price.
- Fake socials and paid hype - websites, communities and influencers can be manufactured.
Radarline's rug-risk score checks some of these using public data. It cannot detect everything, can be fooled, and can be wrong. A low score is not a safety guarantee.
The live rug radar and chart alerts in the Axiom companion work the same way. They react to trades and pool changes after they happen, rely on third-party data that can be delayed or missing, and can raise false alarms or miss a rug entirely. A "calm" reading does not mean a token is safe, and momentum markers are an indicator read, not a tested trading signal.
6. Wallet copy signals
- You see a trade after it happens. Prices can move sharply in the seconds before you act.
- Wallets that look successful may be lucky, may be insiders, may use many wallets, or may deliberately trade to attract copiers and then sell to them.
- Past profits of a wallet do not predict future profits.
6A. Auto-trading
- Automated orders are placed without you watching each one. A wrong setting (symbol, size, risk) repeats on every signal until you notice.
- Stops are not guaranteed: in fast or gapping markets a stop can fill well past its price, and losses on leveraged products can exceed your deposit.
- TradingView, the bridge, your broker, a data feed or your connection can be slow or offline, so orders can be late, duplicated or missed - including exit orders.
- Backtested results assume fills that live trading may not get. Start on a demo account, then small size, and check your positions every day.
7. Technology and data risks
- Market data, blockchain data and third-party services can be delayed, wrong or offline.
- TradingView, Axiom, data providers or browsers can change in ways that break or alter the Services.
- Alerts can fail to send or arrive late. Don't rely on a single alert to manage an open position.
- Different brokers and data feeds show different prices for the same market, so levels and calls can differ between symbols.
8. Your own behaviour
Fast-moving markets and frequent signals can encourage over-trading, chasing losses and taking bigger risks than planned. Set a risk limit you can live with. If trading is causing you financial stress, free and confidential help is available from the National Debt Helpline on 1800 007 007 (ndh.org.au).
9. Taxes
Trading gains and losses may have tax consequences. Keep records and speak to a registered tax agent.
