MOSCHOVAKIS CAPITAL
Risk Disclosure Statement
Last Updated: February 2026

Important Notice
This Risk Disclosure Statement is provided by Moschovakis Capital to ensure that you fully understand the risks associated with trading financial instruments and using algorithmic trading systems. Please read this document carefully before subscribing to or using any of our Services. If you do not understand any aspect of this disclosure, you should seek independent professional advice before proceeding.

1. General Risk Warning
Trading financial instruments, including but not limited to foreign exchange (forex), equities, contracts for difference (CFDs), options, and other derivatives, carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. You could sustain a loss of some or all of your invested capital. Therefore, you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.
Before deciding to trade, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, financial resources, and risk tolerance. If in doubt, seek advice from a qualified, licensed financial professional.
2. Algorithmic Trading Risks
Moschovakis Capital provides algorithmic trading software (Expert Advisors) that executes trades automatically based on pre-programmed strategies. While automation eliminates emotional decision-making, it introduces its own set of risks:
System Risk: Algorithmic systems are dependent on technology, including hardware, software, internet connectivity, and third-party platforms (MetaTrader 4/5, broker infrastructure). Technical failures, software bugs, connectivity interruptions, or server outages can result in missed trades, duplicate orders, or execution at unintended prices.
Market Risk: All trading strategies, including algorithmic ones, are subject to market risk. Markets can behave unpredictably, and sudden volatility, liquidity gaps, or flash crashes can cause rapid and significant losses that exceed historical drawdown parameters.
Model Risk: Our algorithms are developed based on historical data and specific market assumptions. Market dynamics evolve over time, and strategies that performed well in the past may not perform equally well in the future. No algorithm can account for every possible market scenario.
Execution Risk: Actual execution prices may differ from expected prices due to slippage, spread widening, requotes, or broker-specific execution policies. These factors are outside our control and can materially impact trade outcomes.
Broker Risk: The performance of our algorithmic systems is partially dependent on your broker’s execution quality, available liquidity, spread policies, and operational reliability. Moschovakis Capital does not control and is not responsible for broker-related issues.
Over-Optimization Risk: Algorithmic strategies may perform exceptionally well on historical data but fail to replicate those results in live market conditions. This phenomenon, known as curve-fitting or over-optimization, is an inherent risk in all quantitative trading.
3. Leverage Risk
Forex and CFD trading typically involves the use of leverage, which allows you to control a large position with a relatively small amount of capital. While leverage can amplify profits, it equally amplifies losses. A small market movement against your position can result in losses that exceed your initial deposit. You may be required to deposit additional funds at short notice to maintain open positions, or your positions may be liquidated at a loss by your broker if margin requirements are not met.
Under the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) regulations, retail clients are subject to leverage limits (e.g., 30:1 for major forex pairs). Professional clients may access higher leverage but assume correspondingly greater risk.
4. Past Performance Disclaimer
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Any performance data displayed on our Site, including but not limited to results verified by Myfxbook or other third-party auditing platforms, represents historical performance achieved under specific market conditions with specific broker configurations.
These results do not guarantee or predict future performance. Key factors that may cause actual results to differ from historical performance include changes in market volatility and liquidity conditions, differences in broker execution, spreads, and commissions, changes in regulatory requirements, differences in account size, leverage settings, and risk parameters, and unforeseen macroeconomic or geopolitical events.
The historical track record of our algorithm, including its performance period under the former entity name “EscapeThe9to5Club” (our beta stress-testing phase), should be viewed as a demonstration of the algorithm’s methodology and behavior under past market conditions, not as a promise or projection of future returns.
5. Copy Trading Risks
If you elect to use our copy trading services through Social Trader Tools or similar platforms, you should be aware that: copy trading involves replicating trades from a master account to your account, but execution may vary due to differences in broker, spread, latency, and account settings. Past results of the master account do not guarantee identical results in your account. Slippage between the master and copy account is common and can be material, particularly during periods of high volatility or low liquidity. You remain solely responsible for monitoring your account and managing your risk exposure.
6. No Guaranteed Returns
Moschovakis Capital does not guarantee any specific return on investment, profit level, or success rate. Any references to past performance, track records, or statistical metrics are strictly informational and should not be construed as guarantees of future results.
No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those discussed or displayed on our Site.
7. Suitability
Our Services are designed for individuals who have a thorough understanding of financial markets and trading, possess the financial resources to sustain potential losses without material impact on their financial well-being, have a risk tolerance consistent with the risks described in this disclosure, and are willing to accept the possibility of losing their entire invested capital.
If you do not meet these criteria, our Services may not be appropriate for you. We strongly recommend consulting with a qualified financial advisor before making any trading or investment decisions.
8. Regulatory Status
Moschovakis Capital operates as a technology provider and publisher. We are not licensed as a financial advisor, broker-dealer, investment firm, or asset manager by any regulatory authority, including but not limited to the Hellenic Capital Market Commission (HCMC), the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), or the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC).
Our algorithmic trading software and research publications are provided as technology tools and informational content, not as regulated financial services or personalized investment advice.
9. Tax Implications
Trading profits may be subject to taxation in your jurisdiction. Tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and may be subject to change. Moschovakis Capital does not provide tax advice. You are solely responsible for understanding and complying with your tax obligations. We recommend consulting with a qualified tax professional regarding the tax implications of your trading activities.
