Risk Disclaimer

Effective date: June 2, 2026

Trading and investing carry substantial risk. This disclaimer applies across the United States, United Kingdom and European Union, where most LiJournal users are located, and to any other region the Service is accessed from.

Not financial advice

LiJournal is a trading journal and analytics tool. All content, statistics, charts, insights and features are provided for informational and educational purposes only. Nothing in LiJournal constitutes financial, investment, trading, tax or legal advice, nor a recommendation, solicitation or offer to buy or sell any financial instrument. We are not a broker, dealer, investment adviser or fiduciary.

Trading involves substantial risk

Trading and investing in financial instruments — including stocks, futures, options, forex and crypto — carry a high level of risk and can result in the loss of some or all of your capital. Leveraged products can lead to losses exceeding your deposits. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.

No guarantees; past performance

Past performance is not indicative of future results. Any metrics, equity curves, win rates or projections shown in LiJournal describe historical, self-reported activity and do not guarantee future outcomes. We make no guarantee that using LiJournal will improve your results or be profitable.

Futures & forex risk

Futures, foreign currency and options trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Only risk capital — money you can afford to lose — should be used for trading, and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider it. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical performance (CFTC Rule 4.41)

Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, because the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown. Any hypothetical, backtested, "what-if", ideal-exit or stop-analysis figures presented in LiJournal are illustrative only and carry these limitations.

Not affiliated; integrations

LiJournal is an independent trading journal. NinjaTrader® and Tradovate® are integrations that let you import your own trade history via their official API; they are not brokerage services offered by LiJournal, and LiJournal is not a broker, dealer or FCM. All trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

Your decisions are your own

You are solely responsible for your own trading and investment decisions and for evaluating the merits and risks of any decision. You should seek advice from an independent, licensed financial professional before making decisions.

Data accuracy

LiJournal relies on data you enter or import and on third-party market-data providers (e.g. Databento). Data may be delayed, incomplete or contain errors. Do not rely on LiJournal data for real-time trading decisions or order execution.

No liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Daniil Lutsyk (trading as LiJournal) accepts no liability for any loss or damage, including trading losses, arising from your use of, or reliance on, LiJournal. See our Terms of Service.
