Risk Disclosure

Effective: March 14, 2026

Trading and investing involve substantial risk, including possible loss of principal. Q Signals is a research tool, not a guarantee engine.

Market risk

Prices can move sharply because of earnings, macroeconomic surprises, liquidity shocks, sentiment reversals, and geopolitical events. Even strong-looking setups can fail quickly.

Model risk

Signals are based on statistical and rule-based models that can overfit, degrade, or underperform in new market regimes. Reinforcement-learning progress does not eliminate model drift.

Data and uptime risk

Q Signals depends on upstream market and news providers. Delays, outages, missing filings, or stale data can affect displayed outputs, rankings, targets, and outcome evaluation.

Backtest risk

Backtests are hypothetical and can differ materially from live results because of slippage, liquidity, timing, survivorship effects, and behavioral execution differences.

Options and leveraged products

Options, leveraged ETFs, and high-volatility instruments carry elevated risk, including rapid decay, gap risk, assignment risk, and amplified losses. These products are not suitable for every user.

User responsibility

Only trade with capital you can afford to lose, use your own risk controls, and consult licensed professionals when needed.
