99 White Swans is the primary business to which this website and any of it’s associated products, opinions or services refer – any reference to 99 White Swans, includes the association with 99whiteswans.com and any subdomains of 99whiteswans.com, as well as any products or services that are associated with 99 White Swans.

99 White Swans, will not accept liability for any loss or damage, including without limitation, to any loss of profit, which may arise directly or indirectly from the use of or reliance on any products, services or information provided by 99 White Swans.

99 White Swans does NOT ever take any investment deposit nor monetary funds from any user* of our services or any associated products – any and all financial investments that are made by users of our products and/or services must be made through an independent broker service, selected at the discretion of the subscriber and in accordance with the terms and conditions of that broker.

99 White Swans offers trading software tools* that are designed to be configurable by the users of such products and we provide education also to our users that is aimed to facilitate a sound understanding of the use of such tools and configuration thereof to suit the specific and unique preferences of the user in the execution of their own self-directed trading activities.

* IMPORTANT NOTE: in relation to these trading software tools :  it is important to understand that these trading software tools rely entirely for functionality on the execution framework of MT4/5 which is a trading platform provided by a 3rd party and shared from your independent broker – to be clear: the 99 White Swans products, principally the range of AlgoEdge algorithms are not ‘stand-alone’ software products, but rather these products have been conceived and developed as specific software code that interfaces with these 3rd parties as the primary execution agents.

99 White Swans do not offer any trading advice.

99 White Swans do not offer any Copy Trading services or products (nor anything similar).

99 White Swans is a registered enterprise (as stated) and any users of our products/services are subject to the rules, authority and legislations of the country in which 99 White Swans is registered to operate.

99 White Swan products are designed to work on both DEMO and REAL trading accounts, whichever the user prefers and selects, at their sole discretion and subject to independent 3rd Party Broker agreements. 99 White Swans do offer some educational services, aimed to enhance the understanding of our software tools/products and such services are offered purely in an educational capacity and may not be construed in any shape, form or nature, to be investment advice offered by 99 White Swans.

Should any user of our products choose to act in an independent trader capacity to use 3rd party software to replicate their own DEMO or LIVE account trading activities into any other trading accounts, any decision to do so is entirely a self-directed decision of such user and such decision and act is at the traders own discretion, free will and risk, completely independent of any influence from 99 White Swans. To be clear – the above is not an activity that we encourage and such activity in fact goes against the principles of the products which we offer at 99 White Swans, but we do acknowledge that we have no means to be aware of, nor control such activities, other than to formally discourage such activity, as we have written and declared here.

For the absence of any doubt, 99 White Swans is not currently a registered investment advisor, nor financial service provider, in any country or region, except those countries or regions that may be clearly and specifically indicated on this website (including possible additions into the future), with reference provided to both the pertinent regulation and regulating authorities. In some countries, 99 White Swans may have initiated the process to ensure full Financial Regulatory compliance with the relevant authorities for future-contemplated products and services and in accordance with local determining regulation, but no such action may be seen to be a measure of a compliance claim nor professional representation by 99 White Swans, until such time as the relevant authorities have provided the necessary licence and 99 White Swans have clearly indicated as such on this website.

HIGH RISK INVESTMENT

The products and services that are offered by 99 White Swans are designed to be software foundational tools that are configurable by our users “in their hands” and to suit user trading preferences – as such, there is no inherent risk associated with the 99 White Swans product itself, which is purely a software device that is only meaningful in it’s ability to execute trading decisions once such decision-making configurations are made fully executable by the user of the product  or service. However, users need to be aware that the application of such product is directed at trading activities across a wide diversity of financial instruments including derivatives of foreign exchange currencies (forex), digital assets and financial derivative products that cover ETF’s, stocks, commodities, metals, bonds, options and market indexes – all of these financial derivative instruments are traded on margin through a 3rd party broker service – such trading activities carry a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. Users of 99 White Swans products are strongly advised to carefully consider the 3rd Party Broker services that they independently choose to engage with and such users are advised to familiarise themselves with all associated Broker contracts, agreements, risks, terms and conditions.

In the interest of our users, we mindfully draw your attention to the fact that price movements across the above-mentioned financial instruments include, but are not limited to, the potential for changing political and/or economic conditions and may be subject to significant, and sometimes very swift, price moves in response to public market commentary and opinion.

Past performance is not indicative of future results – the past performance of any trading product, system or methodology is not necessarily indicative of future results. No representation is being made that any  user of any product or service that is offered by 99 White Swans, is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those discussed anywhere on this web site, or in any related online social platform or other method of communication, whether or not such communication is formal, informal, verbal, visual, or other. All trading activities and executions to which the 99 White Swans products or services relate are provided by 3rd party broker services and you should carefully consider the risk associated with the 3rd party provider, separately from the risk associated with the product or service provision to which this website refers.

The high degree of leverage which many 3rd party brokers offer can work against you as well as for you and therefore, before you choose to engage with or use any of the 99 White Swans products and services and before commencing with any associated trading activity, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and appetite for financial risk. As with any investment, the possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose – only trade with money that you are prepared to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading on margin and leverage, and seek advice from an independent regulated financial advisor if you have any doubts. You should also consider the risk that may be associated with the use of any product or service that is ultimately dependent on internet connectivity, and only proceed with using any such product or service if you are prepared to accept this risk without obligation or recourse on the product/service provider to which this website refers.

The nature of automated algorithmic trading is highly sophisticated and whilst this form of trading is very convenient and efficient, it does not necessarily reduce risks associated with financial derivative trading. All quotes and trades are subject to the terms and conditions of the Client Agreements that you make independently with the 3rd party broker that you choose to contract with for your trading activities and executions.

The trading software systems described across this website have been developed for sophisticated traders who fully understand the nature and the scope of the risks that are associated with trading. Should you decide to trade any or all of these systems’ trading indications, or purchase any other products to which this website refers, you understand that it is your decision, along with any associated risk. You trade at your own risk. The offering of a product or service that is designed to automate the trading activities of any users of such software tools is neither a solicitation nor an offer to Buy/Sell any financial instruments including derivatives of foreign exchange currencies (forex), digital assets and financial derivative products that cover ETF’s,  stocks, commodities, metals, bonds, options and market indexes.  Any and all such decisions are made entirely at the discretion of the user of such products or services.

Any statements about profits or income expressed or implied, do not represent a guarantee. Your actual trading may result in losses as no trading system is guaranteed. You accept full responsibilities for your actions, trades, profits, or losses, and understand and agree that 99 White Swans and any associated or authorized distributors of this information, cannot and will not be held responsible nor liable in any way. By trialling or purchasing any of 99 White Swans products or services, you acknowledge and accept that all trading decisions that are subsequently made are your own sole responsibility and taken in the full knowledge of this responsibility. Any trading with real funds that you do, be it manual or automated, you do so at your own risk and discretion.

Algorithmic trading products and services are speculative trading techniques designed to buy and sell margined and leveraged financial instruments including derivatives of foreign exchange currencies (forex), digital assets and financial derivative products that cover ETF’s, stocks, commodities, metals, bonds, options and market indexes. No claims as to past, present, or future profitability of these products or services  are made, and there is no guarantee that our system and techniques will provide any profits to traders using the system and techniques, and indeed may cause such traders to incur losses. All trade indications generated are provided primarily for educational purposes and our express intent at 99 White Swans is to assist traders in furthering their own self-directed trading ambitions. Any trades placed upon reliance on products and services associated with 99 White Swans are taken at your own risk and are executed on your own independent trading account with your chosen 3rd party broker and according to configuration optimisations that you select within the products offered by 99 White Swans.

The algorithmic automation of trades generated by 99 White Swans products on the user account are based on historical formulas that have worked in the past, as well as configuration options and selections made by the user of the software tool. However, what has happened before may or may not happen again. You can lose all your money trading and you must decide your own suitability as to whether or not to trade. Only trade with true risk capital you can afford to lose. Properly funded trading accounts typically perform better than those that are not.

We at 99 White Swans work hard to provide our customers with reliable trading software tools that seek to generate a reward for any investments made, but no system, tool nor strategy is perfect. There are no guarantees or certainties in trading. The reliability of trading our products, systems and strategies is in probabilities only. Trading involves hard work, risk, discipline, and the ability to follow rules and trade through any tough periods during system drawdowns. If you are looking for guarantees, trading is not for you. Most people lose money when trading. One of the reasons is that they lack discipline and are unable to be consistent. A system can help you become consistent. The ability to be disciplined and take, or not take, the trades is equally as important as any technical product, system or indicators that a trader uses.
