Regulatory Disclosures
Topstep LLC (“Topstep”) and its affiliated companies (collectively, the “Company”) have prepared the following disclosures and notices to provide important information about our products and services and the risks associated with futures trading.
Please review the following disclosures and notices carefully, as they contain important details regarding the Company and your Topstep account(s).
General Trading Risk Disclosure
Commodity trading involves substantial risk of loss. All investments involve risk, and not all risks are suitable for every investor. The value of investments may fluctuate and as a result, clients may lose more than their original investment. The past performance of a financial product does not guarantee future results or returns. Please carefully consider whether it is appropriate for you to engage in futures trading in light of your personal financial circumstances. You should only use funds that you can afford to lose without affecting your financial security or lifestyle, and only a portion of those funds should be used to support a single trade because you cannot expect to profit on every trade.
