Risk Disclosure
Essential information for professional market participants.
1. Capital Loss Risk
Trading in event contracts involves a high degree of risk. You should only trade with funds that you can afford to lose. Unlike traditional equity markets, event contracts often result in a binary outcome (0 or 100), meaning your entire position can become worthless upon market resolution.
2. Liquidity & Volatility
Markets for specific event contracts may have limited liquidity. This can result in significant price slippage when entering or exiting large positions. Prices are highly volatile and can move rapidly based on breaking news, public sentiment, or social media trends.
3. Oracle & Settlement Risk
Resolution of contracts relies on the **Guardian Protocol**. While designed for maximum integrity, there is a risk of data source ambiguity, reporting delays, or external manipulation of the resolution source. All resolutions are final once processed by the decentralized network.
