Risk Disclosure Statement

1. Introduction

This Risk Disclosure Statement (“Statement”) is provided by BRIDGES Technology Group (“Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), the operator of TradeLensIQ, available at https://tradelensiq.com. This Statement is intended to inform you of certain risks associated with trading financial instruments and with the use of the TradeLensIQ Platform.

This Statement does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, or a solicitation to trade. It is provided for informational purposes as part of our commitment to transparency about the nature of the markets and the limitations of the Platform.

This Statement is incorporated into and forms part of our Terms of Service. By using the Platform, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted the risks described in this Statement. If you do not accept these risks, you must not use the Platform or engage in trading activities.

2. Nature of Trading Financial Instruments

Trading financial instruments — including foreign exchange currency pairs (“forex”), contracts for difference (“CFDs”), commodities, and other derivatives — is a speculative activity. The prices of financial instruments are determined by supply and demand in the market and can fluctuate significantly over very short periods of time.

Financial markets are influenced by a complex and interconnected set of factors including macroeconomic data releases, central bank policy decisions, geopolitical events, market sentiment, institutional positioning, and technical price behaviour. No analytical tool, system, or platform can predict with certainty how markets will move.

Trading is not suitable for everyone. Before engaging in trading activities, you should carefully consider your financial situation, risk tolerance, level of experience, and investment objectives. You should seek independent financial advice from a qualified financial adviser if you are uncertain whether trading is appropriate for your circumstances.

3. Risk of Loss

3.1 Capital at Risk

Trading financial instruments carries a high degree of risk. You may lose some or all of your invested capital. You should only trade with money that you can afford to lose entirely without affecting your financial security, living expenses, or other obligations.

3.2 No Guaranteed Returns

There is no guarantee of profit from trading financial instruments. Even traders with years of experience, sophisticated analytical tools, and disciplined risk management can experience sustained periods of losses. The intelligence outputs provided by TradeLensIQ are designed to inform your decision-making, not to guarantee profitable outcomes.

3.3 Potential for Total Loss

In certain market conditions — particularly where leverage is employed — it is possible to lose more than your initial deposit. You should ensure you fully understand the margin and leverage terms applied by your broker before placing any trade.

4. Leverage and Margin

Many trading instruments, particularly forex and CFDs, are traded on margin using leverage. Leverage amplifies both potential profits and potential losses. A relatively small adverse move in the price of an instrument can result in a loss that significantly exceeds your initial margin deposit.

For example, if you trade at 100:1 leverage, a 1% adverse move in the underlying instrument will result in a 100% loss of your margin deposit. At higher leverage ratios, smaller price movements can wipe out your position entirely.

TradeLensIQ does not control, recommend, or have any involvement in the leverage or margin terms you use with your broker. The Trade Calculators on the Platform are provided as tools to assist with position sizing based on your own defined risk parameters. They do not constitute advice on appropriate leverage levels.

You are solely responsible for understanding and managing the leverage and margin requirements applicable to your trading account with your broker. You should be aware of your broker's margin call and stop-out policies and ensure that you have sufficient margin to maintain your positions under adverse market conditions.

5. Market Risk

5.1 Volatility

Financial markets can be highly volatile, particularly around major economic data releases, central bank announcements, geopolitical events, and periods of low liquidity such as market open, close, and holiday periods. Prices can move rapidly and substantially in either direction within very short timeframes.

5.2 Gap Risk

Markets can “gap” — meaning that prices can jump from one level to another without trading at intermediate prices. This can occur when markets open after a period of closure (such as a weekend), following a major news event, or during periods of extremely low liquidity. In gap conditions, stop-loss orders may be executed at prices significantly worse than specified, potentially resulting in losses greater than anticipated.

5.3 News and Event Risk

High-impact economic events — including central bank interest rate decisions, non-farm payrolls, inflation data, GDP releases, and geopolitical developments — can cause sudden, extreme price movements. While TradeLensIQ incorporates an Economic Calendar and Event Mode to flag imminent high-impact events and adjust the Execution Gate accordingly, the Platform cannot predict the magnitude or direction of price movements following such events.

5.4 Correlation Risk

Financial instruments do not move in isolation. Currency pairs, commodities, and other instruments are often correlated — either positively or negatively — with one another and with broader market factors such as the US Dollar Index (DXY), risk sentiment, and interest rate differentials. Adverse moves in correlated markets can affect positions across your portfolio simultaneously.

6. Liquidity Risk

While the forex market is one of the most liquid financial markets in the world, liquidity can vary significantly depending on the instrument, the time of day, and market conditions. During periods of low liquidity — such as Asian session trading in major USD pairs, market open, or around major news releases — bid-ask spreads can widen significantly, increasing the cost of entering and exiting positions.

In extremely illiquid conditions, it may not be possible to exit a position at the desired price, or at all. This can result in positions being held longer than intended and losses exceeding planned levels.

7. Technology Risk

7.1 Platform Availability

TradeLensIQ is a software platform delivered over the internet. The availability of the Platform depends on internet connectivity, server infrastructure, and third-party services. The Platform may experience periods of downtime, interruption, or degraded performance due to maintenance, technical failures, cyberattacks, third-party service outages, or other factors outside the Company's control.

During periods of Platform unavailability, you may not be able to access intelligence outputs, the trade journal, or other Platform features. You should not rely on the Platform as your sole source of market information or as a means of executing trading decisions in time-critical situations.

7.2 Data Delays and Errors

The intelligence outputs generated by TradeLensIQ are derived from market data obtained from third-party data providers. This data may be subject to delays, interruptions, or inaccuracies. The Company does not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of the underlying market data. Intelligence outputs based on delayed or erroneous data may not accurately reflect current market conditions.

7.3 Connectivity and Execution

TradeLensIQ is a market intelligence and trader development tool only. It is not connected to any brokerage, trading account, or order execution system. The Platform does not place, modify, or cancel trades on your behalf. All trade execution occurs through your separate brokerage relationship, and any connectivity issues with your broker are entirely separate from the Platform.

8. Platform Output Limitations

8.1 Intelligence Outputs Are Not Predictive

The intelligence outputs generated by TradeLensIQ — including Trade Readiness scores, Swing Bias, Intraday Bias, Alignment, Confidence, Macro assessments, and Market Context narratives — are deterministic analytical outputs derived from the systematic evaluation of current market data. They describe current market conditions as computed by the Platform's intelligence engines. They do not predict future price movements or future market conditions.

A high Trade Readiness score indicates that current market conditions are analytically favorable according to the Platform's models. It does not guarantee that any trade taken in those conditions will be profitable, nor does it guarantee that the market will continue in the direction indicated by the current bias.

8.2 The Execution Gate Is Not a Trade Signal

The Execution Gate status — READY or NOT READY — reflects whether the intelligence environment meets a defined threshold of favorability for active execution. A READY status is not a signal to trade, and a NOT READY status is not a guarantee that losses will be avoided by standing aside. The Execution Gate is one input among many in your trading decision-making process.

8.3 Model Limitations

The intelligence engines underlying TradeLensIQ are rules-based mathematical models. Like all models, they are simplifications of reality. They may not capture every relevant factor affecting market conditions, may perform differently across different market regimes, and may produce outputs that do not reflect the full complexity of the market environment at any given time. No analytical model eliminates trading risk.

8.4 No Guarantee of Intelligence Accuracy

While the Company endeavours to build and maintain accurate, reliable intelligence engines, we do not warrant that the outputs generated by the Platform will be accurate, complete, or current at all times. Market conditions can change rapidly in ways that are not immediately reflected in intelligence outputs, particularly during periods of extreme volatility or following unexpected events.

9. No Financial Advice

BRIDGES Technology Group is not a licensed financial adviser, investment adviser, broker, or dealer. TradeLensIQ does not provide financial advice, investment advice, or trading advice of any kind. Nothing on the Platform — including intelligence outputs, coaching feedback, market narratives, trade reviews, or any other content — constitutes a recommendation to buy, sell, hold, or refrain from trading any financial instrument.

The Platform is designed to give you better information about current market conditions and to help you understand your own trading behavior. What you do with that information is entirely your decision. You are solely responsible for all trading decisions you make, including the instruments you trade, the size of your positions, the timing of your entries and exits, and your overall risk exposure.

If you require financial advice, you should consult a qualified, independent financial adviser who is appropriately licensed in your jurisdiction.

10. Past Performance

Past performance — whether of financial instruments, trading strategies, intelligence outputs, or any other metric — is not indicative of future results. Markets are not static; conditions that produced certain outcomes in the past may not produce the same outcomes in the future.

Any historical data, illustrative trade results, performance statistics, or example outputs presented on the Platform or in Platform communications are provided for illustrative and educational purposes only. They should not be interpreted as a representation that you will achieve similar results.

Your own past performance as a trader, as recorded in the TradeLensIQ Trade Journal and Performance module, reflects your historical results under historical market conditions. It does not guarantee similar results in future trading.

11. AI Limitations

TradeLensIQ uses artificial intelligence to generate trade reviews, coaching feedback, and market context narratives. While these AI outputs are grounded in your personal trading data, your Trading Profile, and deterministic intelligence scores, they are subject to the inherent limitations of large language model technology.

AI-generated coaching outputs may occasionally contain inaccuracies, misinterpretations of context, or outputs that do not fully reflect the nuance of a particular trading situation. You should apply your own critical judgment when reviewing AI outputs. AI coaching is a supplementary analytical tool, not a substitute for your own knowledge, experience, and decision-making.

The AI does not have access to real-time market data at the time of coaching output generation. Coaching reviews are based on the intelligence snapshot captured at the time of trade entry and your Trading Profile — they reflect conditions as they existed at that moment, not current conditions.

12. Proprietary Trading Firms

Some users of TradeLensIQ may be participating in evaluation programmes or funded trader programmes offered by proprietary trading firms (“prop firms”). If you are using TradeLensIQ in connection with a prop firm programme, you should be aware of the following additional considerations:

• Prop firm evaluation programmes are subject to specific rules, risk limits, drawdown thresholds, and trading restrictions that are determined solely by the prop firm and are entirely separate from the Platform
• The Company has no affiliation with, endorsement of, or responsibility for any prop firm or its programmes
• Intelligence outputs from the Platform do not account for the specific rules, drawdown limits, or risk management requirements of any prop firm programme
• A trade taken in a favorable intelligence environment may still violate prop firm rules if it exceeds permitted risk limits or is taken during a restricted period
• You are solely responsible for understanding and complying with the specific rules of any prop firm programme you participate in
• The Company accepts no liability for losses arising from violations of prop firm rules, including account breaches, drawdown violations, or programme disqualification
