Risk Warning Please note that foreign exchange trading carries a high level of risk, which may not be suitable for all investors. Leverage can increase the risk of loss. Before engaging in forex trading, it’s important to carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk tolerance. You could lose all or part of your initial investment, so it’s important not to invest more than you can afford to lose. It’s also essential to educate yourself on the risks associated with forex trading and seek advice from a financial or tax advisor if you have any questions.
