Read this before you trade
Trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for everyone. You can lose some or all of the money you trade, sometimes very quickly. Only trade with funds you can afford to lose entirely. FX Help is a tool that places trades on your behalf — it is not a guarantee of profit and does not eliminate risk.
01Nature of the risk
FX Help connects to your IQ Option account and can place trades on financial instruments including currency pairs, commodities, indices, cryptocurrencies, and short-term options. These markets can move sharply, gap, and become illiquid at any time, including outside normal trading hours. Losses can equal or exceed the amount you risk on a given trade.
02Not financial advice
Nothing inside the FX Help App, on this website, in our Telegram bot, or in any signal we deliver constitutes financial advice, investment advice, tax advice, legal advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any instrument. Signals are information; the decision to act on them, and the consequences, are yours alone. If you need advice, consult a licensed professional in your jurisdiction.
03Past performance
Any historical results, win rates, screenshots, or back-tests — whether displayed in the App, on social media, or shared by other users — are not a reliable indicator of future results. Markets, signal accuracy, slippage, and execution conditions change. A strategy that worked in the past may fail in the future.
04Leverage & margin
Some instruments available through IQ Option are leveraged, meaning a small price movement can cause a disproportionately large loss on the capital you committed. You are responsible for understanding the leverage applied to each instrument before enabling auto-trading on it.
05Market volatility
Events outside our and your control — macroeconomic data releases, geopolitical events, central-bank decisions, exchange outages, sudden liquidity shocks — can cause prices to move violently. The App cannot prevent losses caused by such moves; in many cases it cannot even execute a trade until conditions normalise.
06Technical & connectivity risk
Automated trade execution depends on multiple links working together in real time: your phone, your mobile data or Wi-Fi connection, the Firebase push network, our servers, and the IQ Option WebSocket endpoint. Any of these can fail, slow, or be throttled (for example, by Android Doze or battery-optimisation settings) without warning. As a result:
- Signals may be delivered late, out of order, or not at all.
- Trades may be placed at prices worse than the price at the moment the signal was generated.
- Confirmation that a trade succeeded may be delayed or temporarily missing.
- An order may be rejected entirely by IQ Option for reasons including margin, instrument restrictions, or platform errors.
07Counterparty risk
Your funds are held by IQ Option, not by us. We have no control over IQ Option’s ability to honour withdrawals, segregate client funds, or remain operational. The collapse, suspension, or regulatory action against any third-party broker could result in the partial or total loss of funds held with that broker. Review IQ Option’s own legal documents before depositing funds.
08Regulatory & jurisdictional risk
Online trading, short-term options, and the brokerage platforms that offer them are regulated differently in every country, and banned in some. It is your responsibility to confirm that using FX Help and the connected brokerage is legal where you live. If your jurisdiction prohibits these products, do not use the App. We may restrict the App in certain countries without notice and may not be liable for losses arising from any such restriction.
09Tax responsibility
Profits, losses, and any other taxable events arising from your trading activity are your responsibility to report and pay under the laws of your country. We do not provide tax advice and do not report your activity to tax authorities on your behalf. Records of your trading history are available inside the App for your reference.
10Suitability
Before enabling auto-trading, honestly ask yourself:
- Can I afford to lose this entire balance without affecting essential expenses (rent, food, debt, dependants)?
- Do I understand how the chosen instrument is priced, and what makes its price move?
- Do I understand the risk parameters I’ve set (stake size, daily loss limit, max trades) and am I disciplined enough not to override them after a loss?
- Am I trading because of analysis I trust, or because of fear of missing out?
If the answer to any of these is “no” or “not sure”, do not enable auto-trading and consider speaking to a licensed financial professional.
11Where to get help
