Risk Warning

CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 62% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs, FX or any of our other products work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

Trading in the products and services of the Saxo Bank Group may, even if made in accordance with a Recommendation, result in losses as well as profits.

Trading risks are magnified by leverage – losses can exceed your deposits. Margin calls may be made quickly or frequently, especially in times of high volatility, and if you cannot meet them, your positions may be closed out and any shortfall will be borne by you. Values may fluctuate significantly in times of high volatility or market /economic uncertainty; such swings are even more significant if your positions are leveraged and may also adversely affect your position. Trade only after you have acknowledged and accepted the risks. You should carefully consider whether trading in leveraged products is appropriate for you based on your financial circumstances and seek independent financial consultation.
