9 GENERAL

Trading in margined account involves a high degree of risk including the risk of loss of the Customer’s entire Risk Capital deposited with Sage FX. Losses, in some cases, have the potential to extend beyond the Customer’s Account Value.

In consideration of Sage FX agreeing to enter into contracts with its Customer(s) for this Account, Sage FX requires all the undersigned Customer(s) to analyse their financial objectives, financial status, investment constraints and tax situation to determine whether trading is suitable. In addition, we require our Customers to carefully read and acknowledge the Sage FX Risk Disclosure Statement that outlines without limitation the risks associated with trading a margined account through Sage FX. By signing this Agreement the Customer understands and agrees that:

  1. OTC Margined Trading involves a high amount of risk and is highly speculative. Customer(s) agrees that they are in full understanding and willing to assume the legal, economic, and other risks associated with the trading a margined account, and are willing and able to assume the loss of their entire Risk Capital, defined as those funds, that if lost, would not change your lifestyle or your family’s lifestyle. As such, they further agree that margined trading is not suitable for Retirement Funds. Sage FX encourages Customers to closely manage outstanding open positions and to use prudent money management precautions such as, but not limited to, Stop Loss Orders.
  2. Excessive leverage available with Margined accounts can lead to quick losses. Customer(s) agrees that using a high degree of leverage, defined as the use of a small amount of capital to control a larger amount of an Open Position, can result in large losses due to a price change(s) of open contract(s) with Sage FX.
  3. Sage FX provides leverage on most trading products for most customers of 100:1 or more. With 100:1 leverage the Customer has the potential to control a $1,000,000 position with $10,000 in an Account. Sage FX encourages its Customers to use only that portion of leverage that the Customer is most comfortable with and to use money management precautions such as, but not limited to, Stop Loss Orders for the purpose of limiting risk. Sage FX reserves, at its sole discretion, the right to reduce or increase the amount of leverage given on any trading product at any time and without notice.
  4. Trading experience periods of liquidity risk. Customer acknowledges that Liquidity Risk, resulting from decreased liquidity, is usually due to unanticipated changes in economic and/or political conditions. Customer also acknowledges that Liquidity Risk can affect the general market in that all participants experience the same lack of buyers and/or sellers.
  5. The Customer also understands that liquidity risk can be Sage FX specific due to changes in liquidity available to Sage FX from a Sage FX Custodian of funds interbank liquidity providers due to a perception that the risks of the market segment have increased. When liquidity decreases, Customers can expect, at the minimum, to have wider bid to ask spreads as the supply of available bid/ask prices, outstrips the demand.
  6. Decreases in liquidity can also result in “Fast Market” conditions where the price of a trading product moves sharply higher or lower or in a volatile up/down pattern without trading in an ordinary step-like fashion. In some instances, there may exist the possibility that a trading bid and/or ask price for a trading product or products are not available (a situation where there is no liquidity).
  7. Although there may be instances when the aggregate OTC market enters a “Fast Market” situation or periods where liquidity is in short or no supply, it is important to note that prices, bid/ask spreads and liquidity will reflect the prevailing interbank market liquidity for Sage FX. Sage FX can Liquidate Positions of the Customer that do not have adequate margin: Because of the leverage available with OTC Margined Trading and the potential for extreme volatility, Sage FX Custodian of funds reserves the sole discretionary right to liquidate Customer’s Account(s) should the Margin in the Account not be sufficient to cover the potential risk of loss. Should the Customer’s Account value go below the free of programming bugs that can cause trading, position keeping or any other required functionality of the Trading Platform and other relevant software applications associated with Sage FX including but limited to clearing and escrow Account software, from becoming inoperable or without errors?
  8. There is a Communication Risk that the Customer assumes. Although Sage FX will have qualified representatives available on the telephone during business hours to accept and execute Customer Market Orders, there exists the risk that the Customer will not be able to contact or make contact with the Sage FX representative due to but not limited to, communication malfunction, an overabundance of telephone orders, or any other malfunction or negligence.
  9. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that they will hold harmless Sage FX for any loss or missed trading opportunity resulting from any communication problems the Customer may encounter.
  10. Sage FX does not take responsibility for Money Managers. Should a Customer grant a Money Manager trading discretionary trading authority or control over a Customer’s Account, the Customer acknowledges that Sage FX does not take any responsibility for any action done by that Third Party on the Customer’s behalf.
  11. The Customer grants Money Manager trading authority for the Customer’s Account at its sole, and full risk. Sage FX reserves the right to correct any transactions executed on misquoting errors: In the case when a quoting error occurs that results in a Customer transaction done at an off-market price, Sage FX reserves the sole discretionary right to make the necessary corrections and adjustments to the Customer’s Account whether it be in the favour of the Customer or not in the Customer’s favour.
  12. Any change will be reported to the Customer either verbally or via an electronic method such as but not limited to email.
  13. All Market Recommendations made by Sage FX or any representative of Sage FX are for informational purposes only. Any decision by the Customer to buy or sell is an independent decision by the Customer. Market recommendations made by Sage FX or a representative of Sage FX do not constitute an offer to sell or buy from Sage FX or from any other source that may provide straight-through processing prices to the Customer.
  14. Sage FX and its employees are not investment advisor(s) and have no fiduciary duty to Customer and therefore are not liable for any losses incurred by the Customer as a result of information or any recommendations made by Sage FX or representative of Sage FX. The Customer is at Risk if Sage FX should go out of business.
  15. There is no guarantee that Sage FX as a business will be profitable. Consequently, there exists a credit risk that Sage FX may be subject to losses, which could, in turn, jeopardize the capital that the Customers have in their Accounts. Customer acknowledges that in the event of insolvency, the Customer can only look to Sage FX for performance and return of all Collateral and Margin that the Customer may have at Sage FX.
  16. Sage FX may decide to exit the Business. There is no guarantee that Sage FX Custodian of funds may decide that they do not want to continue to participate. As a result, the Customer agrees and acknowledges that Sage FX may liquidate all Customer positions, and return margined funds to the Customer at the sole discretion of Sage FX, at any time and for any reason. Sage FX Customers do not hold Sage FX liable for any loss as a result of the liquidation of the Customers position either on an actual basis or as a result of missed profit opportunities.
  17. Customers are responsible for any reporting errors. Any reporting and confirmation errors of omission, and/or errors in the details of transactions including but not limited to the price contracts were executed, the product traded, the market direction (i.e., ”buy” or “sell”) of order, the type of order and/or any errors in fees, charges or credits to the Customer’s Account including but not limited to charges for executing a transaction, wiring funds, rolling over position, and sweeping balances into the home currency, require that the customer notifies Sage FX immediately upon discovery for review.
  18. Risks from trades done over the telephone. Sage FX will only accept Market Orders for trades done over the telephone. Telephone trades are considered executed when the Sage FX representative says, “done” and relays the complete transaction details. Any given price by a Sage FX representative over the telephone prior to execution is considered indicative. Sage FX reserves the right to change the indicative price given over the phone if the actual trading price is different due to market conditions, misquote or volatility.
  19. Sage FX is not responsible for Customer telephone orders if the Customer cannot be heard or understood by the Sage FX representative due to, without limitation, accent, speech defect, faulty connection, or excessive background noise at the Customers location or at Sage FX. To better ensure execution, Sage FX requires that Customers communicate in English when giving orders. Sage FX cannot guarantee that telephone orders given in a foreign language will be executed. For best results and fast execution, the following procedure will be used:
  20. The Customer will first be asked by the Sage FX representative the following Account Information:
  21. The Customer’s Sage FX User Name, Account Number and/or other identifying feature. Only after the Sage FX representative confirms the Customer’s identity, the Customer should relay the following order information:
  22. The execution direction to Buy or Sell, the number of lots, and the desired trading product.
  23. The Sage FX representative will then repeat the order information for the Customer to confirm. For example, the Sage FX Representative may say the following, “Buy 2 lots of EUR vs USD at the Market. Confirmed?” By saying, “Yes” the order will be executed at the Market and the details immediately given to the Customer after execution. The Sage FX representative will enter the transaction into the Customer’s Account. The details and effects of the transaction will be reflected in the Customer’s Online Reports. Sage FX does not warrant that trades done over the telephone will be done at prices that mirror the prices displayed electronically at that time over the Trading Platform. Sage FX reserves the right to charge a commission for trades done over the telephone.
  24. Should Sage FX charge a commission for telephone trades, it will be reported on the Sage FX Website and be reflected as a line item debit in your Sage FX Account Reports? All trades and charges done via the phone are final. Sage FX reserves the right to tape all telephone calls without the knowledge of the Customer.
  25. Sage FX is not responsible or liable if the tapes of the telephone calls are erased or never recorded because of error, omission or any reason. Sage FX is also not liable should User Name and Account information be obtained knowingly or unknowingly by a Third Party and as a result, trades done in the name of the Customer without his or her knowledge or authorization.
  26. Risks from trades done using chat communication devices. Sage FX may utilize an electronic conversational application or other similar chat application for the communication and execution of some market orders.
  27. Trades are done using chat applications or the telephone should only be done if the Customer cannot execute using the Trading Platform. Although currently not planned, Sage FX reserves the right to charge a commission for trades done over chat applications. Should Sage FX charge a commission for chat application trades, it will be reported on the Sage FX Website and be reflected as a line item debit in your Sage FX Account Reports. All trades and charges done via chat applications are final.
  28. Neither Sage FX nor third-party chats application provider is responsible or liable if the electronic logs of the electronic conversations are erased or never recorded because of error, omission or any reason. Sage FX is also not liable should User Name, Password and Account information be obtained knowingly or unknowingly by a Third Party and as a result, trades done in the name of the Customer without his or her knowledge or authorization.
  29. Sage FX has limited liability. The Customer agrees and acknowledges that Sage FX shall not be liable to the Customer for any claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses, including attorneys’ fees caused directly or indirectly by any events, actions or omissions, without limitation, claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees, resulting from civil unrest, war, insurrection, international intervention, governmental action) including, without limits, exchange controls, forfeitures, devaluations and nationalizations), natural disasters, acts of God, market conditions, communication problems or any delay, disruption, failure of any transmission or communication system or computer hardware or software application whether supplied and belonging to Sage FX or from a third party vendor that the Customer and Sage FX rely on to conduct execution and reporting services.
  30. Effect of “Leverage” or “Gearing”. Margin accounts and contracts carry a high degree of risk. The amount of initial margin is small relative to the value of the contract so that transactions are “leveraged” or “geared”. A relatively small market movement may have a proportionately larger impact on the funds’ Customer has deposited or will have to deposit. This may work against Customer as well as for Customer. Customer may sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and any additional funds deposited with the firm to maintain Customer’s position.
  31. Risk-reducing orders or strategies. Placing contingent orders, such as “stop-loss” or “limit” orders, particularly in volatile market conditions, will not necessarily limit Customer’s losses to the intended amounts, since market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders. Strategies using combinations of positions, such as “spread” and “straddle” positions may be as risky as taking simple “long” or “short” positions.
  32. Before Customer begins to trade, Customer should obtain a clear understanding of all charges for which Customer may be liable. These charges will affect Customer’s net profit (if any) or increase Customer’s loss.
  33. Electronic trading. Trading on an electronic trading system may differ not only from trading in an open outcry market but also from trading on other electronic trading systems. If Customer undertakes transactions on an electronic trading system, Customer will be exposed to risks associated with the system including any failure of hardware and software. The result of any system failure may be that Customer’s order is either not executed according to Customer’s instructions or not executed at all. Since Sage FX does not control signal power, its reception or routing via Internet, the configuration of Customer’s equipment or reliability of its connection, Sage FX cannot be responsible for communication failures, distortions or delays when trading online (via the Internet). In no event shall Sage FX be liable for speculative or expectancy damages for potential future lost profits.
  34. Limitation of liability. Customer accepts any trading system provided by Sage FX “as is,” and without warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular use, purpose or application; timeliness; freedom from interruption; or any implied warranties arising from trade usage, course of trading or course of performance.
  35. Under no circumstances shall Sage FX be liable for any punitive, indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss or damages, including loss of business, profits or goodwill. Sage FX shall not be liable to Customer by reason of delays or interruptions of service or transmissions, or failures of performance of Sage FX’s or its affiliate systems, regardless of cause, including, but not limited to, those caused by hardware or software malfunction; regulatory action; acts of God; war, terrorism, or our intentional acts.
  36. Customer recognizes that there may be delays or interruptions in the use of our system, including, for example, those caused intentionally by Sage FX for purposes of servicing the system. Sage FX does not guarantee that alternative trading arrangements will be available at a particular time and Sage FX will not be held liable for delays in entering an order.
  37. Sage FX’s margin policies require that Customer’s Account be properly margined at all times. Failure to meet margin requirements may result in the liquidation of any open positions with a resultant loss. Sage FX reserves the right to liquidate all positions without notice if an Account falls below Customer’s minimum margin requirement, in accordance with Sage FX’s margin call policy.
  38. Quoting errors. Should quoting errors occur, which may include, but are not limited to, a mistype of a quote by Sage FX, a quote which is not representative of fair market prices, an erroneous price quote from a Sage FX employee, such as but not limited to a wrong big figure quote or an erroneous quote due to failure of hardware, software or communication lines or systems and/or inaccurate external data feeds provided by third-party vendors, Sage FX will not be liable for the resulting errors in Account balances.
  39. The foregoing list is not meant to be exhaustive and in the event of a quoting error, Sage FX reserves the right to make the necessary corrections or adjustments on the Account involved. Any dispute arising from such quoting errors will be resolved in accordance with required regulations if such regulations exist. In the event of a system error where interest is not charged or credited as scheduled, Sage FX reserves the right to apply the missed interest to the Account at any time.
  40. Third-Party Authority. In the event that Customer grants trading authority or control over Customer’s Account to a third-party trading advisor, such as a Money Manager, whether on a discretionary or non discretionary basis, Sage FX shall in no way be responsible for reviewing Customer’s choice of such trading advisor, or for making any recommendations with respect thereto.
  41. Sage FX makes no representations or warranties concerning any trading advisor; Sage FX shall not be responsible for any loss to Customer occasioned by the actions of the trading advisor; and Sage FX does not, by implication or otherwise, endorse or approve of the operating methods of any trading advisor. If Customer gives a Money Manager authority to exercise any rights over Customer’s Account, Customer does so at Customer’s own risk. Customer should regularly review the activity in Customer’s Account to ensure that Customer approves of the transactions placed on Customer’s behalf by Customer’s Money Manager.
  42. Disclosure Regarding Bankruptcy Protections. The transactions Customer is entering into with Sage FX are not traded on an exchange. Therefore, Customer’s funds may not receive the same protections as funds used to margin or guarantee exchange-traded futures and options contracts, which may receive a priority in bankruptcy.
  43. Since that same priority has not been given to funds used for trading, if Sage FX becomes insolvent and Customer has a claim for amounts deposited or profits earned on transactions with Sage FX, Customer’s claim may not receive a priority. Without a priority, the Customer is a general creditor and Customer’s claim will be paid, along with the claims of other general creditors, from any monies still available after priority claims are paid. Even customer funds that Sage FX keeps separate from its own operating funds may not be safe from the claims of other general and priority creditors.
  44. Volatile Market Conditions. Trading at times of extraordinarily volatile market conditions, e.g. key news announcements may expose the Customer to additional risks, including the risk that the Customer may not get the price him or her requests. Sage FX cannot and does not guarantee its prices in times of extraordinary market volatility.
  45. Simulated Conditions. Simulated conditions may differ from real conditions. Therefore, Customers who trade on demo Accounts should not necessarily expect the same results from live trading.
  46. Referring Parties. IF YOU WERE REFERRED TO Sage FX BY AN INTRODUCING BROKER, REFERRING PARTY OR THIRD PARTY ADVISOR (EACH, AN “IB”), PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT Sage FX AND YOUR IB ARE WHOLLY SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT FROM ONE ANOTHER AND THERE EXISTS NO JOINT VENTURE OR PARTNERSHIP RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES. Additionally, NEITHER IB NOR ANY OTHER EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF IB IS AN AGENT OR EMPLOYEE OF Sage FX.
  47. Sage FX does not control, and cannot endorse or vouch for the accuracy or completeness of any information or advice Customer may have received or may receive in the future from Customer’s IB or from any other person not employed by Sage FX regarding trading or the risks involved in such trading.
  48. Sage FX provides risk disclosure information to all new Customers when they open Accounts. Customer should read that information carefully, and should not rely on any information to the contrary from any other source.
  49. Customer acknowledges that no promises have been made by Sage FX or any individual associated with Sage FX regarding future profits or losses in Customer’s Account. Customer understands that trading is very risky and that many people lose money trading.
  50. If an IB or any other third party provides Customer with information or advice regarding trading, Sage FX shall in no way be responsible for any loss to Customer resulting from Customer’s use of such information or advice.
  51. To the extent Customer has previously been led to believe or believes that utilizing any third party trading system, course, program, research or recommendations provided by IB or any other third party will result in trading profits, Customer hereby acknowledges, agrees and understands that all trading, including trading done pursuant to a system, course, program, research or recommendations of IB or another third party involves a substantial risk of loss. In addition, Customer hereby acknowledges, agrees and understands that the use of a trading system, course, program, research or recommendations of IB or another third party will not necessarily result in profits, or will avoid losses or limit losses.
  52. Because the risk factor is high in trading, only genuine risk capital should be used. If Customer does not have capital which the Customer can afford to lose, Customer should not trade.
  53. Customer understands and acknowledges that Sage FX may compensate Customer’s IB for introducing Customer to Sage FX and that such compensation may be on a per-trade basis or another basis.
  54. Customer understands and agrees that if Customer’s Account with Sage FX is introduced by an IB, that IB shall have limited access to information regarding Customer’s Sage FX Account, but the IB shall not have the right to enter into any trades on Customer’s Sage FX Account unless authorized by Customer under a power of attorney between Customer and IB granting such IB the right to trade on Customer’s Account.
  55. Customer understands and acknowledges that Customer may have only one IB, a party that originally referred Customer to Sage FX.
  56. Customer may terminate Customer’s relationship with an IB by providing written notice to Sage FX. Customer understands and acknowledges that Customer cannot be considered the client of any other IB. Should you have any questions regarding the risks of trading, please contact your Account representative.
