Read before you trade.
The essential financial-risk, educational-use, affiliate, review, and third-party disclosures that apply when you use DayTradingToolkit content or tools.
Last updated

Important
Risk is real
You can lose some or all capital placed at risk, and certain leveraged products can create losses beyond the initial amount.
Education only
Content explains concepts, evidence, and workflows; it does not tell an individual what to buy, sell, hold, or trade.
Tools are estimates
Calculators and examples depend on inputs and assumptions. Real prices, fills, fees, taxes, slippage, and decisions can differ.
Educational information, not personal advice
DayTradingToolkit publishes general educational and informational material about trading concepts, market structure, strategies, risk, software, brokers, calculators and workflows. The content is not financial, investment, trading, legal, accounting or tax advice and is not tailored to your objectives, finances, experience, risk tolerance or jurisdiction.
DayTradingToolkit does not act as your investment adviser, broker-dealer, fiduciary, attorney, accountant or financial planner. Reading the site, subscribing, commenting, using a tool or following a link does not create a professional or client relationship.
Day-trading and investment risk
Day trading can be extremely risky. It is generally unsuitable for someone with limited resources, limited experience or low risk tolerance. Studies of retail day traders, from academic researchers and regulators, repeatedly find that most lose money and that only a small minority are consistently profitable.
You can lose some or all of the capital you put at risk. Margin, options, futures, short selling, leveraged products and volatile assets can magnify losses, and some positions can lose more than the initial amount. Trading costs, taxes, platform fees, commissions, spreads, slippage, liquidity, halts, borrow availability, execution speed and emotional decisions can all change an outcome materially. Never trade money you need for living expenses, emergencies, debts, education or any other essential purpose.
No recommendation or solicitation
Nothing on the site is an offer, solicitation, signal or personalized recommendation to buy, sell, hold, short or trade any security, option, futures contract, currency, cryptocurrency, derivative or other instrument. References to an asset or setup are educational context, not an instruction to transact.
You are responsible for your own research, broker and product selection, risk controls, orders, and compliance with the laws and account rules that apply to you.
No promise of performance
No article, rating, strategy, checklist, calculator, chart, course, review, comparison or third-party product guarantees profit, income, a win rate, loss prevention or any other result. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Actual results vary with the market, data, execution, costs, position sizing, timing, discipline and the decisions of the individual. A product feature or educational framework can be useful and still fail to produce a profit.
Hypothetical results, backtests and examples
Worked examples, screenshots, sample trades, simulations, scenarios and backtests are simplified educational material unless a page clearly states otherwise. Hypothetical and simulated results benefit from hindsight and do not reproduce the financial pressure, liquidity, execution, data quality, errors or decision-making of live trading.
A third-party performance statistic belongs to its stated source and should be read with that source's assumptions, sample period, exclusions, incentives and limitations. It is not a DayTradingToolkit performance claim.
Calculators and interactive tools
Calculator outputs and interactive-tool feedback are mathematical or educational estimates based on the inputs and rules provided. They may contain rounding, simplified assumptions, delayed data, incomplete market constraints or input errors.
Verify important calculations independently and with your broker, accountant, attorney or another qualified professional as appropriate. Do not place a trade solely because a calculator or training scenario produced a favorable result.
Market, regulatory and product information
We work from credible, current sources, but markets, laws, tax rules, margin requirements, broker policies, prices, discounts, software features, data coverage and product terms can change without notice. A page can become incomplete or outdated after publication.
Confirm any decision-critical fact with the relevant regulator, exchange, broker, provider or official source, such as the SEC, FINRA, the CFTC or the IRS. A publication or review date describes when the page was assessed; it is not a promise that every linked source or term remains unchanged.
Reviews, comparisons and access level
Reviews and comparisons express the editor's assessment of the evidence available at the stated review date. That evidence may include official documentation, pricing, public support material, demos, trials, available product access, direct use and identified third-party sources.
A review does not imply long-term paid use, complete feature access, real-money trading or professional experience unless the page specifically documents that basis. Suitability statements are general editorial judgments; verify current terms and decide whether a product fits your own needs.
Affiliate and commercial relationships
DayTradingToolkit is free for readers and may earn compensation from affiliate links, promotional placements or commercial partners. If you follow an eligible link and complete a purchase or signup, the site may receive a commission. The provider controls the final price, eligibility, terms and tracking.
Material relationships are disclosed near the commercial content they relate to. Compensation does not buy a positive rating, ranking or verdict, or the omission of a material limitation. A label such as sponsored or paid identifies commercial content where it applies. The How We Make Money page explains the funding model in plain language.
Third-party websites and services
Links, embedded media, prices, offers, tools and statements from third parties are provided for information or convenience. DayTradingToolkit does not control and is not responsible for a third party's availability, security, privacy practices, claims, terms, transactions, support or later changes.
A link or mention is not a blanket endorsement. Review the provider's current terms, risk disclosures, refund policy and privacy policy before sharing information or paying.
Illustrations and visuals
Many images on the site are original illustrations, diagrams and composite graphics created to explain an idea. Unless a page clearly identifies a visual as authentic source material, it is illustrative. It is not evidence of a real account, trade, result, endorsement or event.
Tax, legal and jurisdictional differences
Trading rules, tax treatment, product availability, investor protections and legal duties vary by location and personal circumstances. General content cannot account for those differences. Consult a qualified professional or the relevant authority for advice specific to you.
Nothing on the site should be read as a statement that a product, strategy or instrument is legal, suitable or available in every jurisdiction.
Accuracy, corrections and availability
DayTradingToolkit aims to publish accurate, useful work but does not warrant that every page, calculation, link, feed or service will be complete, current, error-free, uninterrupted or suitable for a particular purpose. Content may be corrected, updated, moved or withdrawn.
Report a suspected error with the page URL and a supporting source to Hello@daytradingtoolkit.com. Material corrections are handled under the Corrections Policy.
Responsibility and limitation of liability
You use the site and any third-party service at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, DayTradingToolkit and its operator are not responsible for trading or investment losses, lost profits, lost opportunities, business interruption, data loss, or indirect, incidental, special or consequential damage arising from reliance on the site or a linked service.
Nothing in this disclaimer excludes or limits a responsibility that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. If you do not accept the uncertainty and risk described here, do not rely on the site for a financial decision.
Copyright, indexing and permitted reference
Original DayTradingToolkit content is protected by applicable copyright law. You may link to public pages and quote short, properly attributed excerpts where permitted. Search engines and AI discovery services may crawl and index public content in line with the site's robots directives and applicable law.
Crawling or public access does not grant permission to republish substantial content, remove attribution, sell copies, impersonate the publisher or reproduce protected material beyond a license or lawful exception. Contact us for broader reuse permission.
