Risk Disclosure

Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. 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.

Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown.

Every backtest, Strategy Tester report, equity curve and sample metric shown on this site is hypothetical and is labelled as illustrative where it appears.

Gold, foreign exchange and contracts for difference are complex, leveraged instruments. They carry a high risk of losing money rapidly, and a large majority of retail investor accounts lose money when trading such instruments.

Depending on your broker, jurisdiction, account type and the protections that apply to it, you could lose more than your deposit and may be required to fund a negative balance. You should consider whether you understand how these instruments work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

Only trade with capital you can afford to lose entirely. Nothing on this site takes account of your objectives, financial situation or needs.

The XauStack Execution Stack is an execution utility, not financial advice, and past performance does not guarantee future results.

The software places, protects and closes orders according to parameters you choose. You remain responsible for your broker, your account, your leverage, your position sizing and every order placed on your account. XauStack is not a broker, is not an investment adviser and does not manage client funds.

Automated trading depends on your terminal, your VPS or computer, your internet connection, your broker’s server and their spreads, slippage, requotes and swap charges. Any of these can fail or change without notice, and an Expert Advisor cannot manage a position while your terminal is disconnected.

Stop-loss orders are sent to the broker but are not guaranteed: in fast or gapping markets — around scheduled news or at the weekly open — an order may be filled at a materially worse price than requested.

Test any configuration on a demo account until you understand its behaviour before you risk real capital.

Preset files are provided as a starting point for common evaluation rule sets. Prop firms set their own rules on automated trading, news trading, copy trading, consistency and drawdown, and they change them. We do not promise that any configuration will pass, keep or comply with any firm’s programme.
