Risk Disclosure

Last updated: August 7, 2026

1. Futures and leverage involve substantial risk

Trading cryptocurrency futures and other leveraged products involves substantial risk. Leverage can magnify both profits and losses, and adverse market movements can lead to liquidation and the loss of some or all capital allocated to a trading account or bot.

2. DeepShield does not eliminate liquidation risk

The DeepShield Gold DCA System is a risk-planning framework for long-only Gold futures trading using supported XAUUSDT or XAUTUSDT contracts. It is designed to plan DCA levels, capital allocation and an approximate downside buffer before trading begins.

3. DCA can increase exposure

Dollar-cost averaging can reduce the average entry price when the market moves against a position, but it also increases total position size and capital exposure. During a prolonged or unusually deep decline, multiple DCA orders may be filled and the resulting position can become significantly larger than the initial trade.

Using more DCA levels, larger order sizes or higher leverage does not automatically make a strategy safer. Every change to capital, leverage, grid spacing, order size or number of DCA orders can materially change the liquidation risk.

4. Downside scenarios are not price predictions

Any Gold price levels, probability assessments, stress scenarios or downside ranges shown on EA Tester are provided for educational and risk-planning purposes only. They are not predictions, guarantees or statements that Gold will or will not trade at a specific price.

Historical price behavior, market commentary, backtests, simulations and previous market cycles do not guarantee future results.

5. Exchange and execution risks

Trading results can be affected by factors outside the strategy itself, including trading fees, funding rates, slippage, liquidity, spreads, order execution, API delays or outages, exchange downtime, contract specifications, maintenance-margin requirements and changes to exchange rules.

Gold-related futures products may differ between exchanges. XAUUSDT and XAUTUSDT are not necessarily identical instruments, and contract specifications, pricing methodology, funding, leverage limits and margin requirements may vary by exchange.

6. Bitsgap and API connections

Bitsgap is used as an automated trading platform that sends trading instructions to a connected exchange through an API. Your funds generally remain on the connected exchange, but automated execution does not remove trading risk.

API permissions must be reviewed carefully. Withdrawal permissions should not be enabled for an API key used solely for automated trading. You remain responsible for your exchange account, API configuration and security settings.

7. No financial advice

Content on EA Tester is provided for general information and educational purposes only. Nothing on this website constitutes personalized investment advice, financial advice, a recommendation to buy or sell any asset, or a guarantee of future performance.

You are solely responsible for deciding whether a strategy, exchange, trading pair, leverage level or bot configuration is appropriate for your financial situation and risk tolerance.

8. Verify every setting before trading

Before using real capital, independently verify the selected trading pair, direction, leverage, margin mode, investment amount, DCA order sizes, DCA levels, take-profit settings and approximate liquidation price. Small configuration differences can materially change risk.

Consider testing unfamiliar settings with demo trading or a significantly smaller amount before committing substantial capital.

9. Only risk capital you can afford to lose

By using information from EA Tester, you acknowledge that trading involves risk and that all trading decisions remain your own responsibility.
