Educational purposes only
TheChartDad provides futures trading education through its website, community, memberships, mentorship programmes, indicators and learning materials. Discussions, market commentary and feedback are intended to support learning and independent judgment.
Not financial or investment advice
Content shared by TheChartDad is not personal financial or investment advice, a recommendation to enter or exit a trade, or an assessment of what is suitable for your circumstances. Educational feedback does not take the place of advice from an appropriately qualified professional who understands your financial situation, objectives and tolerance for risk.
Substantial risk of loss
Futures trading involves substantial risk and may not be suitable for everyone. Leverage can amplify losses as well as gains. You may lose all of the funds committed to trading and, depending on the product and account terms, may owe more than your initial deposit. Rapid price changes, gaps, limited liquidity, execution delays and slippage can affect outcomes. Risk controls, including stop orders, do not guarantee that losses will be limited to an intended amount. Trade only with funds you can afford to lose.
No guarantee of results
Participation in a membership or mentorship, use of an indicator, or application of a method does not guarantee profit, consistent returns, successful evaluations, funded accounts or any other trading outcome. Outcomes vary with market conditions, costs, experience, execution and individual decisions.
Past performance and educational examples
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Charts, trade examples, reviews, screenshots and results may be shared to illustrate an educational point. A selected example does not represent every trade or a complete performance record. Where examples are hypothetical, simulated or backtested, they do not represent actual trading and may benefit from hindsight or omit real-world costs, liquidity constraints and the pressure of risking money. Actual results can differ materially.
Prop-firm and funded-account results
Prop-firm evaluations and funded-account arrangements depend on the provider's rules, fees, drawdown limits, payout conditions and other terms. Accounts or results may involve simulated trading, depending on the programme. An evaluation pass, payout, account size or result shared by TheChartDad or a participant should not be interpreted as a typical result, a promise of personal earnings or a guarantee that you will obtain or keep funding. Review the provider's current terms independently.
Your decisions and responsibility
You are responsible for your own trading decisions, position sizing, risk management and choice of broker, platform or prop firm. Assess your knowledge, financial circumstances and ability to bear losses before trading. Verify information independently and seek appropriate professional advice when needed. You do not need to place live trades to participate in or learn from TheChartDad's educational content.
