Risk disclosure

The risks you should know

Trading crypto can lose money, even with a bot and a stop-loss. This page explains the risks honestly and without exaggeration.

Last updated: September 24, 2026

1. Crypto market volatility

Crypto prices can rise or fall sharply in a short time. News, legal decisions, exchange hacks or large traders can move prices by tens of percent within minutes. The bot does not remove this volatility.

2. Risks specific to grid trading

A grid bot buys at each step down in price and sells at each step up. It works best in sideways, choppy markets and has clear weaknesses in strong trends:

  • In a falling market the bot keeps buying as the price drops, and can build up a large inventory bought above the current price.
  • Realized profit can look healthy while the value of that inventory is falling; this is why the dashboard also shows net profit.
  • In a sharp rising market the bot sells early and can miss part of the move.
  • Stop-loss and trailing stop limit losses, but cannot remove them. When they trigger, the loss up to that point becomes final.
  • Orders can fill with slippage, and during sudden price gaps they can fill at a worse price than the level you set.

3. Fees

Every trade pays an exchange fee. Grid trading makes many trades with small margins, so fees take a significant share of profit and in some conditions can erase it completely. The Yielox subscription fee also reduces your net return.

4. Backtests and research results are not forecasts

Backtests and the research loop test settings on past data. Their results are fitted to recent history and do not predict the future. Past performance, real or simulated, does not guarantee future results, and the market can behave very differently.

5. Exchange risk

Your funds are held by the exchange, and Yielox has no control over it. Exchange risks include:

  • Outages, slowdowns or access limits that stop orders being placed or cancelled when needed.
  • Insolvency, hacks or frozen assets at the exchange.
  • Changes to the API, trading rules, minimum order sizes or fees without notice.
  • Regulatory or legal decisions that restrict the exchange or your account.

6. Technical risk

The bot is software and can have bugs. Internet outages, server problems, delayed market data or software errors can cause an order not to be placed, to be cancelled late, or to behave unexpectedly. We run monitoring and recovery to reduce these risks, but they cannot be removed entirely.

7. Regulatory risk in Iran

Crypto regulation in Iran is changing. Government decisions, banking restrictions, internet shutdowns or new laws can limit or stop access to the exchange, subscription payments or the bot itself.

8. Only trade money you can afford to lose

Never commit money you need for living costs, debt repayments or other essentials. Start small, watch how the bot behaves over a few weeks, and only then decide whether to add capital.

9. No guarantee and no financial advice

Yielox does not guarantee any profit or result. Nothing on the site, in the panel, in pair rankings or in the bot's suggestions is financial or investment advice. If you are unsure whether this kind of trading suits you, talk to an independent financial adviser.
