Risk Statement

You agree to use the Web site at your own risk.

Without limiting the foregoing, the financial services contained within this site are suitable only for customers who are able to bear the loss of all the money they invest, and who understand the risks and have experience in taking risks involved in the acquisition of financial contracts.

International currency prices are highly volatile and are very difficult to predict. Due to such volatility, in addition to the spread that Easy-Forex adds to all calculations and quotes (as described below in further detail), no financial contract purchased or other Service offered in our Web site (whether or not the payout exceeds the premium amount) may be considered as a safe trade.

The maximum loss that may be incurred by any customer is the amount of money paid by them to the Company.

Stop Loss Orders shall be executed either at the exact exchange rate selected by the customer, where the amount will be calculated automatically, or at the exact amount of loss selected by the customer, where the exchange rate will be calculated accordingly. A transaction of that nature shall be executed as soon as the distinctive ("indicative") exchange rate is found on the financial information systems which, including the Company's spread, is either identical to the order given by the customer, or indicates an identical amount of loss declared by the customer.

The calculation of the price to be paid (or the payout to be received) for financial contracts on this site, at the time the financial contract is purchased or sold, will be based on the Company's best estimate of market prices and the expected level of interest rates, implied volatilities and other market conditions during the life of the financial contract, and is based on a complex arithmetic calculation.

The calculation will include a spread in favor of the Company. The financial contract prices (or the payout amounts) offered to customers speculating on market or index prices, may differ substantially from prices available in the primary markets where such contracts are traded, due to the spread favoring the Company in the price calculation system referred to above.

The Company does not provide a market amongst or between customers for investments or speculations. Each financial contract purchased by a customer via this site is an individual Agreement made between that customer and the Company, and is not transferable, negotiable or assignable to or with any third party.

Easy-Forex may make available to you through one or more of its Services a broad range of financial information that is generated internally or obtained from agents, vendors or partners ("Third Party Providers"). This includes, but is not limited to, financial market data, quotes, news, analyst opinions and research reports, graphs or data. ("Market Information”).

Easy-Forex does not endorse or approve the Market Information, and we make it available to you only as a service for your own convenience.

Market Information may quickly become unreliable for various reasons including, for example, changes in market conditions or economic circumstances. Neither Easy-Forex nor the Third Party Providers are obligated to update any information or opinions contained in any Market Information, and we may discontinue offering Market Information at any time without notice.

You agree that neither Easy-Forex nor the Third Party Providers will be liable in any way for the termination, interruption, delay or inaccuracy of any Market Information. You will not “deep-link”, redistribute or facilitate the redistribution of Market Information, nor will you provide access to Market Information to anyone who is not authorized by Easy-Forex to receive Market Information.

Disclosures

The services hereunder are offered by Easy-Forex Pty Ltd., located at 437 St. Kilda Rd, Melbourne, Australia.

It is important that you be fully aware of the following points:

The high level of leverage effect possible in conducting foreign currency transactions stems from the fact that it is only necessary to pay relatively modest margins or guarantees in relation to the scope of the contract.
The result of the above is that even a slight fluctuation of the market could mean substantial gains when these fluctuations are in your favor, but that could also mean considerable losses if the fluctuations are to your detriment.
No system exists that could assure you that transactions on the foreign currency market should bring you great benefits, nor is it possible to guarantee, that your transactions will yield favorable results.
Even though the foreign currency markets are fluid (liquid) as compared with other financial and exchange markets, the market conditions might at times render the execution of an order or of a limit order at a stipulated price impossible.
The amount you could lose in a transaction carrying limited risk will never be more appreciable than that which you can lose in transactions having no pre-determined limit on loss.
Nevertheless, even though the extent of the losses could be subjected to an agreed upon limit, the risk of incurring losses could be higher, and that loss could occur in a relatively short period of time.
It is possible that some unfavorable situations on the market could occur, in a relatively short period of time, resulting in the TOTAL LOSS of your investment.
Since deposit of an additional guarantee is not obligatory in this case, Easy-Forex reserves the right to close the outstanding balances without the customer's consent.
The risk information presented here does not reflect all of the risks as well as other important aspects intrinsic to the FOREX market. Therefore, before starting to trade, you should learn the specifics of trading on FOREX markets in detail.
You should conclude an Agreement for opening and/or closing transactions on the FOREX market only if you are absolutely sure of the size of its possible risk and consequences, and if you understand in detail the scope and range of your rights and obligations.
Withdrawal orders: The provision of documentation as may be required from time to time by AML regulations, Credit Card companies and Easy forex, is a prerequisite, prior to the execution of a withdrawal order.
Credit card deposits may be, according to credit card companies' regulations, returned to same credit card when a withdrawal is performed. A withdrawal to a bank account where initial deposits have been performed by credit cards will be executed back to credit card or to bank account at company's discretion. Withdrawals to bank account may take a longer time period, due to additional security procedures.
Credit Card Deposits Variance: When choosing an account base currency other than USD, your credit card may be debited sums which due to exchange rates and credit card companies’ fees, may slightly vary from the initial sum that has been deposited by you in the account base currency. You hereby accept that such variations may occur and you hereby affirm that you shall not seek to object or charge this back. Note that when Using USD as account base currency this phenomena will be avoided.
When depositing by a Bank Transfer, as required by anti money-laundering regulations, you are required to use only one bank account, which is in your country of residence and in your name. An authentic SWIFT confirmation, showing the origin of the funds, must be sent to Easy Forex. Failure to submit such SWIFT may result in the return of the deposited amount, hence preventing the deposit of such pending amounts to your Easy Forex account. Any withdrawal of funds, from your Easy Forex account to a bank account, can only be refunded to the same bank account that the funds were originally received from.
Alternative payment methods (internet payment vendors; money transfer services; etc.): when depositing funds using a facility other than Credit Cards and/or Banks, you agree to, and acknowledge being bound by, the regulations and rules of such service, including, but not limited to, fees and other restrictions. Easy Forex, at its sole discretion, may execute withdrawals to a facility other than the facility used for the original deposit, in accordance with anti money-laundering regulations.

By checking the “I Accept” check box below you signify that you agree to the above Legal Terms and Conditions after having fully read and understood them.
