Regulatory Positioning Statement
Overview
This statement outlines the nature of the services provided by the Platform and clarifies its regulatory position. The Platform is designed and operated as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution, providing users with tools, infrastructure, and technical capabilities to support their own trading activities.
No Financial Advice
The Platform does not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. Nothing on the Platform should be interpreted as:
- A recommendation to buy or sell any asset
- Personalised investment advice
- Guidance tailored to individual financial circumstances
All information, data, and outputs are provided for informational and technical purposes only.
User-Controlled Trading
All trading activity conducted through the Platform is:
- Defined by user-selected parameters
- Initiated based on user-configured strategies
- Executed according to rules set and controlled by the user
Users retain full responsibility for configuring, monitoring, and managing their trading strategies at all times.
Automated Execution
The Platform may provide functionality that enables automated trade execution. Such automation operates strictly based on predefined user inputs, does not involve discretionary decision-making by the Platform, and does not adapt or override user-defined parameters without user instruction. The Platform does not make independent trading decisions.
No Discretionary Management
The Platform does not manage portfolios or assets on behalf of users, does not exercise discretion over trading decisions, and does not act as an agent or fiduciary for users. At no point does the Platform take control of user funds or make decisions independent of user-defined rules.
No Custody of Assets
The Platform does not hold or custody user funds. All assets remain held by third-party exchanges and controlled directly by the user. The Platform interacts with exchanges only through user-authorised API connections.
Third-Party Integrations
The Platform integrates with third-party services, including exchanges. Users acknowledge that these services operate independently of the Platform, the Platform is not responsible for their performance, availability, or actions, and trading outcomes may be affected by third-party systems.
Fee Structure
The Platform operates on a subscription-based pricing model. Fees are fixed and based on access to software features. No fees are based on assets under management. No performance-based or profit-sharing fees are charged. This pricing structure reflects the Platform's role as a software provider.
Risk Acknowledgement
Trading involves significant risk and may result in the loss of capital. Users acknowledge that all trading decisions are made independently, market conditions are unpredictable, and no guarantees of performance or profitability are provided.
Regulatory Position
The Platform is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. The services provided are intended to fall outside the scope of regulated activities by:
- Avoiding the provision of financial advice
- Avoiding discretionary portfolio management
- Operating strictly as a provider of technical tools and infrastructure
Ongoing Review
We continuously review our services, features, and communications to ensure alignment with applicable laws and regulatory expectations.
