Risk Disclaimer

1. General Risk Warning

2. Leveraged Trading Risks

Trading perpetual futures and other leveraged instruments on Hyperliquid involves unique and heightened risks:

• Amplified losses. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses. A small adverse price movement can result in substantial or total loss of your margin.
• Liquidation risk. If your position moves against you beyond your margin threshold, your position may be automatically liquidated, resulting in the complete loss of your deposited collateral.
• Margin calls. Rapid market movements may require additional margin deposits. Failure to meet margin requirements can lead to forced liquidation without prior notice.
• Funding rate exposure. Perpetual futures involve periodic funding payments that can erode your position value over time, regardless of price direction.
• Gap risk. In periods of extreme volatility, prices may move sharply in a very short time, making it impossible to exit positions at your intended price.

3. Copy Trading Risks

Copy trading features provided by HyperX carry their own specific risks that you must understand before use:

• Past performance is not indicative of future results. A trader's historical returns do not guarantee similar performance in the future. Market conditions change, and strategies that worked previously may fail.
• Execution differences. Due to slippage, network latency, and timing differences, the prices at which your copied trades are executed may differ materially from the original trader's execution prices.
• No guarantee of profits. Copy trading does not eliminate trading risk. You can still lose some or all of your capital, even when copying traders with strong track records.
• Strategy changes. Traders you copy may change their strategy, risk tolerance, or trading behavior at any time without notice, which may not align with your own risk profile.
• Position sizing differences. Differences in account size, leverage settings, and margin allocation between your account and the copied trader's account can lead to significantly different outcomes.

4. Market Risks

• Extreme volatility. Cryptocurrency markets operate 24/7 and are subject to sudden, extreme price movements that can occur at any time, including outside of traditional trading hours.
• Liquidity risk. Some tokens or trading pairs may have limited liquidity, leading to wider spreads, higher slippage, and difficulty exiting positions at desired prices.
• Regulatory risk. Cryptocurrency regulations vary by jurisdiction and are evolving rapidly. Changes in laws or regulations may adversely affect your ability to trade or the value of your holdings.
• Smart contract risk. Decentralized protocols, including Hyperliquid, rely on smart contracts that may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or be subject to exploits, potentially resulting in loss of funds.
• Counterparty risk. While Hyperliquid is a decentralized exchange, there are inherent risks associated with any trading platform, including potential downtime, bugs, or infrastructure failures.
• Market manipulation. Cryptocurrency markets may be susceptible to manipulation, including wash trading, spoofing, and pump-and-dump schemes that can cause artificial price movements.
