Risk Disclosure

Last updated: August 3, 2026

This page applies to all content published on this site, including the Alertsify, Draw Lines, Elite Options, The Options Cartel, and Subroc’s TradeKit pages, every article on this blog, and any linked X (Twitter) posts or articles from the same authors.

Trading involves substantial risk of loss

Trading stocks, options, and other financial instruments carries a real risk of losing some or all of your invested capital. Past performance — including any profit and loss figures, trade logs, or account screenshots shown on this site — does not guarantee future results. Every trade example described in these articles is a real or realistically illustrative account of one outcome and is not representative of what any reader should expect to earn.

Not financial advice

Nothing on this site is personalized investment advice. The authors are not licensed financial advisors, and no content here should be treated as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any specific security or options contract. Readers are responsible for their own trading decisions and should consult a licensed professional before making significant financial decisions.

Options-specific risk

Options trading carries additional risks beyond stock trading, including but not limited to time decay, assignment risk, and the potential for rapid, total loss of premium paid. Some options strategies can result in losses exceeding the initial investment. Readers unfamiliar with these mechanics should review the Options Clearing Corporation’s disclosure document before trading options.

Copy trading and third-party execution

Products referenced on this site that mirror or automate another trader’s positions (including Alertsify) execute trades based on a third party’s decisions. Following another trader’s execution does not eliminate risk — it transfers the entry/exit timing decision, not the underlying market risk. A copied account can still lose money even when the trader being copied has a strong track record.

Affiliate relationships

Some links on this site are affiliate links. The site’s authors may earn a commission if you sign up for a linked product, at no additional cost to you. This financial relationship does not change the content of the risk disclosures on this page.

Educational content only

Articles on price action, options mechanics, position sizing, and related topics on this site are provided for educational purposes only. They describe how specific individuals approach trading, not a system guaranteed to produce any particular result for any reader.
