Risk Disclosure

Last updated: May 28, 2026

This is a plain-language summary of the most important risks of using Axiom. It is not exhaustive. Trading involves a real and substantial risk of losing money. Read this before you connect a live brokerage account or enable automation.

You can lose money — potentially all of it

Trading stocks and other assets carries a substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. You can lose some or all of the money in your connected account. Only trade with money you can afford to lose. Never deploy automation on funds you need for essential expenses.

Automated trading adds its own risks

When you enable automation, software places orders on your account without a human approving each one. That means:

The bot can place orders quickly and repeatedly, including during volatile conditions.
Bugs, misconfiguration, or unexpected inputs can cause unintended trades.
Outages, latency, or downtime in Axiom, your broker, or data providers can delay, duplicate, or prevent orders — including exits like stop-losses.
Automatic stop-loss and take-profit rules are best-effort and depend on market liquidity and fills; they do not guarantee an exit at a specific price.
You are responsible for monitoring your account and can pause automation at any time.

AI output is not advice and can be wrong

Axiom's signals and explanations are generated by algorithms and AI models. AI can be confidently wrong: it can misread data, miss context, produce errors, or rate a poor trade highly. Conviction scores and confidence percentages are heuristics, not predictions of profit. Every output is informational only and is not a recommendation to buy or sell anything.

Data can be inaccurate, delayed, or incomplete

Axiom relies on third-party market and alternative data (prices, filings, options flow, sentiment, prediction markets, macro data). That data may be wrong, stale, delayed, or unavailable. Decisions made on faulty data can produce losses.

Past and simulated performance means nothing for the future

Any historical results, backtests, paper-trading results, or example returns do not indicate future performance. Paper trading does not reflect real fills, slippage, fees, or the emotional and liquidity realities of live markets. A strategy that worked before can lose going forward.

Markets are volatile and unpredictable

Prices can move sharply and without warning due to news, earnings, macro events, low liquidity, gaps, and market structure. Orders may fill at prices materially different from what you expected, and exits may not execute when or where you intend.

You are solely responsible

Axiom is a software tool operating under your authorization on your own brokerage account. You — not Axiom — make the decision to connect an account, enable automation, choose settings, and accept the risk. You are solely responsible for all trading decisions and outcomes on your account. If you do not understand a risk described here, do not enable automation, and consider consulting a licensed financial professional.

No guarantees

Axiom makes no guarantee of profit, income, or any specific result, and provides no warranty that the software will be uninterrupted, accurate, or error-free.
