Day-Trading Risk Disclosure Statement
You should consider the following points before engaging in a day-trading strategy. For purposes of this notice, a "day-trading strategy" means an overall trading strategy characterized by the regular transmission by a customer of intra-day orders to effect both purchase and sale transactions in the same security or securities.
Day trading can be extremely risky. Day trading generally is not appropriate for someone of limited resources and limited investment or trading experience and low risk tolerance. You should be prepared to lose all of the funds that you use for day trading. In particular, you should not fund day-trading activities with retirement savings, student loans, second mortgages, emergency funds, funds set aside for purposes such as education or home ownership, or funds required to meet your living expenses. Further, certain evidence indicates that an investment of less than $50,000 will significantly impair the ability of a day trader to make a profit. Of course, an investment of $50,000 or more will in no way guarantee success.
Be cautious of claims of large profits from day trading. You should be wary of advertisements or other statements that emphasize the potential for large profits in day trading. Day trading can also lead to large and immediate financial losses.
Day trading requires knowledge of securities markets. Day trading requires in-depth knowledge of the securities markets and trading techniques and strategies. In attempting to profit through day trading, you must compete with professional, licensed traders employed by securities firms. You should have appropriate experience before engaging in day trading.
Day trading requires knowledge of a firm's operations. You should be familiar with a securities firm's business practices, including the operation of the firm's order execution systems and procedures. Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position quickly at a reasonable price. This can occur, for example, when the market for a stock suddenly drops, or if trading is halted due to recent news events or unusual trading activity. The more volatile a stock is, the greater the likelihood that problems may be encountered in executing a transaction. In addition to normal market risks, you may experience losses due to system failures.
Day trading will generate substantial commissions, even if the per trade cost is low. Day trading involves aggressive trading, and generally you will pay commissions on each trade. The total daily commissions that you pay on your trades will add to your losses or significantly reduce your earnings. For instance, assuming that a trade costs $16 and an average of 29 transactions are conducted per day, an investor would need to generate an annual profit of $111,360 just to cover commission expenses.
Day trading on margin or short selling may result in losses beyond your initial investment. When you day trade with funds borrowed from a firm or someone else, you can lose more than the funds you originally placed at risk. A decline in the value of the securities that are purchased may require you to provide additional funds to the firm to avoid the forced sale of those securities or other securities in your account. Short selling as part of your day-trading strategy also may lead to extraordinary losses, because you may have to purchase a stock at a very high price in order to cover a short position.

Forward Looking Statements. Some of the content and information we provide may contain forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations, estimates and projections. Any such forward looking statements or forecasts are based on assumptions; actual results are expected to vary from any such statements or forecasts. No reliance should be placed on any such statements or forecasts when making any investment decision.
Further, any opinions expressed in a JR ADVANCE LLC publication are statements of judgment as of the date of publication, subject to change without further notice, and may not necessarily be reprinted in future publications or elsewhere. Investment recommendations provided herein are subject to change at any time. Past and current recommendations that are profitable are not indicative of future results, which may in fact result in a loss.
Furthermore, a report may contain hypothetical or simulated performance results, which have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading in real markets. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown in this report or any other JR ADVANCE LLC publication.
Potential for Loss.
While we are hopeful that the information provided in our publications leads our readership to make money, there is substantial risk in investing. You may lose some, or all, of the principal you invest in the market. This can happen due to market conditions, political risk, interest rates, company specific risk, and a wide array of other, unforeseen events.
In addition, while our recommendations have been successful in some cases in the past, past performance is not a predictor of future success. Individual investments, based on purchases and sales at various points in time, may yield different results.
There are additional risks associated with specific kinds of securities. For example, foreign exchange investments can be particularly susceptible to political and economic risk, which can generate large fluctuations. Similarly, leveraged investments, where debt is used to potentially enhance returns or diminish losses, can lead to severe losses depending on conditions.
There is also the issue of volatility (price fluctuations) and liquidity (the ability to rapidly find a buyer or seller on the other side of a transaction) that may affect trading, particularly with respect to what are referred to as “microcap” or penny stock shares. Those kinds of investments may move up and/or down substantially in a single trading day and may encounter liquidity issues because of a lack of counter-parties to the transaction and/or market stops by regulators or marketplaces.
As stated above, no representation or implication is being made that using the strategies or tactics, or the information in any JR ADVANCE LLC publication or on its website will generate profits or ensure avoidance of losses.
YOU SHOULD VERIFY ALL CLAIMS AND DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH BEFORE INVESTING IN ANY SECURITIES MENTIONED ON THIS WEBSITE. INVESTING IN SECURITIES IS SPECULATIVE AND CARRIES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. YOU MAY LOSE PART OR ALL OF YOUR PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT.
Your Obligation to Verify.
All information contained in Company’s publications should be independently verified with the subject company. You should review a complete information package on all companies, which should include, but not be limited to, the Company’s annual report, quarterly reports, press releases and all regulatory filings. We urge customers to perform their own due diligence.

Any blogs, forum and chatrooms on the Site are comprised of customers and members (including, without limitation, moderators who are in the employ of 20-Minute Trader) posting content and information. All such information and content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute advice or a recommendation by 20-Minute Trader to enter into any securities transactions or engage in any of the financial strategies reflected on or suggested in forum and chatrooms (whether such data, content or information is posted by 20-Minute Trader or otherwise). Customers and members may write about securities in which they have a financial or other interest, and performance data reflecting other customer’s or member’s holdings may include information about securities not held by 20-Minute Trader or its directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents or affiliates. As such, 20-Minute Trader is not responsible for the accuracy of data, content or information or any performance data in any forum or chatroom; and the accuracy of data, content or information or any performance data are not guaranteed, may not be current and should not be relied upon.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you understand, acknowledge and agree that chat room moderators may call out or post both real and hypothetical trades and real and simulated or hypothetical returns for informational and educational purposes only. Moderator commentary is opinion and ideas only and does not constitute any recommendation whatsoever, and you should not relay on such opinions and ideas which may not be complete or accurate. Each of 20-Minute Trader’s services, products and site are available for informational and educational purposes only. None of the information contained in the site (which includes, without limitation, our alerts service and chat room) constitutes, or is intended to constitute, a recommendation by us of any particular security or trading strategy or a determination by us that any security or trading strategy is suitable for any specific person.

You understand, acknowledge and agree that MODERATOR results may be based on simulated or hypothetical performance, and such results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, such results do not represent actual trading. Your actual results may differ from results reported for many reasons, including, without limitation: performance results do not reflect actual trading commissions that You may incur; performance results do not account for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity, that may affect Your results; the investments chosen may be volatile, and server, delivery delays and other factors may cause the price You obtain to differ substantially from the price at the time of the alert; the prices of investments at the point in time You begin subscribing may be higher than such prices at the time such investments were chosen; You may not have the capital to trade as frequently as the moderator; and the size and timing of your purchase or sale of a stock may affect the price of the stock, among other reasons.
You understand, acknowledge and agree that, For informational and teaching purposes only, trades may be called out, posted, or alerted, but not executed. You understand, acknowledge and agree that moderators may sometimes purchase or sell securities sooner or later than called out, posted or alerted. Moderators are also not required to disclose all trades, and their positions may be inconsistent with trades. Also, because some trades may not actually have been executed, results may have under-or-over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. You understand, acknowledge and agree that the Site contains simulated or hypothetical trading programs. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
You understand, acknowledge and agree that 20-Minute Trader and its directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents and affiliates have no obligation to notify you as to which trades and returns are real versus simulated or hypothetical, and that 20-Minute Trader, and its directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents and affiliates do not verify moderator trade records or maintain records of moderator trades and results, and that moderators have no obligation to provide 20-Minute Trader any data.

Don’t trade with money you can’t afford to lose.

20-Minute Trader does not engage in, and its business and activities shall not constitute or be construed as, a business or activity with the purpose of creating a false or misleading appearance of active trading in any security, or a false or misleading appearance with respect to the market for such security, to effect any transaction in such security which involves no change in the beneficial ownership thereof, to enter an order or orders for the purchase of such security with the knowledge that an order or orders of substantially the same size, at substantially the same time, and at substantially the same price, for the sale of any such security, has been or will be entered by or for the same or different parties, or to enter any order or orders for the sale of any such security with the knowledge that an order or orders of substantially the same size, at substantially the same time, and at substantially the same price, for the purchase of such security, has been or will be entered by or for the same or different parties.
20-Minute Trader does not engage in, and its business and activities shall not constitute or be construed as, a business or activity to effect a series of transactions creating actual or apparent active trading in a security, or raising or depressing the price of such security, for the purpose of inducing the purchase or sale of such security by others.

Investments and Results
The purchase and sale of securities, futures, or commodities involve a high degree of risk and is speculative in nature. The purchase and sale of securities should only be conducted by persons who understand and accept the risks involved therewith and who have independently reviewed and determined their acceptance and suitability of these risks and the financial and tax consequences thereof. Only persons who are able to bear the risk of substantial or complete loss of funds should engage in the purchase and sale of securities, futures or commodities.
20-Minute Trader, and the content and information contained on the Site, and in other products and services of 20-Minute Trader, do not indicate or guaranty any predictable, general, specific or other results. The purchase and sale of securities, and any other investment activity, involves a high degree of risk, and a number of factors could materially and adversely affect the results and lead to a substantial or complete loss of an investment.
As more fully set forth herein, 20-Minute Trader, and its directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents and affiliates, make no representation, warranty or guaranty as to the validity, adequacy, timeliness, accuracy, reliability or completeness of any data, content or information. You should independently analyze, review and confirm any such data, content or information.
20-Minute Trader may express or utilize testimonials or descriptions of past performance, but such items are not indicative of future results or performance, or any representation, warranty or guaranty that any result will be obtained by you. Your results may differ materially from those expressed or utilized by 20-Minute Trader due to a number of factors.
COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING COMMISSION RULE 4.41: Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown, in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight, in addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

We do not track the typical results of our current or past students. As a provider of educational courses, we do not have access to the personal trading accounts or brokerage statements of our customers. Available research data suggests that most day traders are not profitable.
In a research paper published in 2014 titled “Do Day Traders Rationally Learn About Their Ability?”, professors from the University of California studied 3.7 billion trades from the Taiwan Stock Exchange between 1992-2006 and found that only 9.81% of day trading volume was generated by predictably profitable traders and that these predictably profitable traders constitute less than 3% of all day traders on an average day. *Citation 1
In a 2005 article published in the Journal of Applied Finance titled “The Profitability of Active Stock Traders” professors at the University of Oxford and the University College Dublin found that out of 1,146 brokerage accounts day trading the U.S. markets between March 8, 2000 and June 13, 2000, only 50% were profitable with an average net profit of $16,619. *Citation 2
In a 2003 article published in the Financial Analysts Journal titled “The Profitability of Day Traders”, professors at the University of Texas found that out of 334 brokerage accounts day trading the U.S. markets between February 1998 and October 1999, only 35% were profitable and only 14% generated profits in excess of than $10,000. *Citation 3
The range of results in these three studies exemplify the challenge of determining a definitive success rate for day traders. At a minimum, these studies indicate at least 50% of aspiring day traders will not be profitable. This reiterates that consistently making money trading stocks is not easy. Day Trading is a high risk activity and can result in the loss of your entire investment. Any trade or investment is at your own risk.

Day-Trading Risk Disclosure Statement
(From FINRA)
You should consider the following points before engaging in a day-trading strategy. For purposes of this notice, a "day-trading strategy" means an overall trading strategy characterized by the regular transmission by a customer of intra-day orders to effect both purchase and sale transactions in the same security or securities.
Day trading can be extremely risky. Day trading generally is not appropriate for someone of limited resources and limited investment or trading experience and low risk tolerance. You should be prepared to lose all of the funds that you use for day trading. In particular, you should not fund day-trading activities with retirement savings, student loans, second mortgages, emergency funds, funds set aside for purposes such as education or home ownership, or funds required to meet your living expenses. Further, certain evidence indicates that an investment of less than $50,000 will significantly impair the ability of a day trader to make a profit. Of course, an investment of $50,000 or more will in no way guarantee success.
Be cautious of claims of large profits from day trading. You should be wary of advertisements or other statements that emphasize the potential for large profits in day trading. Day trading can also lead to large and immediate financial losses.
Day trading requires knowledge of securities markets. Day trading requires in-depth knowledge of the securities markets and trading techniques and strategies. In attempting to profit through day trading, you must compete with professional, licensed traders employed by securities firms. You should have appropriate experience before engaging in day trading.
Day trading requires knowledge of a firm's operations. You should be familiar with a securities firm's business practices, including the operation of the firm's order execution systems and procedures. Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position quickly at a reasonable price. This can occur, for example, when the market for a stock suddenly drops, or if trading is halted due to recent news events or unusual trading activity. The more volatile a stock is, the greater the likelihood that problems may be encountered in executing a transaction. In addition to normal market risks, you may experience losses due to system failures.
Day trading will generate substantial commissions, even if the per trade cost is low. Day trading involves aggressive trading, and generally you will pay commissions on each trade. The total daily commissions that you pay on your trades will add to your losses or significantly reduce your earnings. For instance, assuming that a trade costs $16 and an average of 29 transactions are conducted per day, an investor would need to generate an annual profit of $111,360 just to cover commission expenses.
Day trading on margin or short selling may result in losses beyond your initial investment. When you day trade with funds borrowed from a firm or someone else, you can lose more than the funds you originally placed at risk. A decline in the value of the securities that are purchased may require you to provide additional funds to the firm to avoid the forced sale of those securities or other securities in your account. Short selling as part of your day-trading strategy also may lead to extraordinary losses, because you may have to purchase a stock at a very high price in order to cover a short position.
