Risk Disclosure

Last updated: 15 June 2026

Important: Please Read Carefully

Trading in securities, derivatives, and other financial instruments involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. You should carefully consider whether trading is appropriate for you in light of your financial condition, investment experience, and risk tolerance. This document does not cover all risks associated with trading — you should seek independent financial advice if you are uncertain.

1. General Market Risks

  • Capital loss — you may lose some or all of the capital you invest. In leveraged derivatives trading (futures and options), losses can exceed your initial margin.
  • Market volatility — prices of securities and derivatives can fluctuate rapidly due to economic events, corporate actions, geopolitical developments, and market sentiment. Intraday trading is particularly exposed to short-term volatility.
  • Liquidity risk — certain instruments may have insufficient market depth, leading to wider spreads, partial fills, or inability to exit positions at desired prices.
  • Gap risk — prices may gap significantly between trading sessions or during market halts, resulting in executed prices materially different from expected levels.
  • Regulatory risk — SEBI, exchanges (NSE, BSE, MCX), or the Government of India may introduce regulations that affect your ability to trade, the instruments available, or the margin requirements applicable to your positions.

2. Automated Trading Risks

IntradayNinja enables automated order execution based on external signals. Automation introduces additional risks beyond manual trading:

  • Amplified exposure — automated systems can execute trades faster and more frequently than manual trading. This amplifies both potential gains and potential losses. A faulty strategy or misconfigured signal source can generate a large number of unintended orders in a short period.
  • Strategy risk — the Platform executes trading signals as received. If your TradingView strategy, Telegram signal source, or trade copier logic is flawed, the Platform will faithfully execute flawed instructions.
  • Over-trading — automated systems may place more orders than you would manually, resulting in excessive brokerage commissions, STT, GST, and other transaction costs that erode returns.
  • Cascade failures — a single erroneous signal can trigger a chain of orders across multiple connected accounts if trade copier is active.

3. Past Performance Disclaimer

Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Backtested results, paper trading performance, historical P&L, and any performance metrics shown on the Platform or by third-party signal providers do not guarantee future returns. Market conditions change, and strategies that were profitable in the past may incur losses in the future.

4. Broker API & Execution Risks

  • No guaranteed execution — the Platform submits orders to your broker via their API. We do not guarantee that any order will be accepted, executed, or filled at the requested price. Order execution depends entirely on your broker's systems and prevailing market conditions.
  • API outages — broker APIs (Zerodha Kite, DhanHQ, SmartAPI, Upstox) may experience downtime, degraded performance, or maintenance windows during which orders cannot be placed or positions cannot be queried.
  • Rate limits — broker APIs impose request rate limits. During high-frequency signal bursts, some orders may be throttled or rejected.
  • Token expiry — broker access tokens have limited validity (typically one trading session). If your token expires and is not refreshed, the Platform cannot execute trades on your behalf until you re-authenticate.
  • Slippage — the price at which your order is executed may differ from the signal price due to market movement between signal generation and order placement. This is inherent to all non-instantaneous execution systems.
  • Order rejection — brokers may reject orders due to insufficient margin, instrument-level circuit limits, quantity freeze limits, or compliance checks. The Platform reports rejections but cannot override broker-side controls.

5. Technical & Infrastructure Risks

  • Network latency — delays between signal generation (TradingView / Telegram), webhook receipt by our servers, and order submission to the broker. Total latency can range from milliseconds to several seconds depending on network conditions.
  • Webhook delivery failures — TradingView or Telegram may fail to deliver webhooks due to their own infrastructure issues, rate limits, or configuration errors.
  • System downtime — the IntradayNinja Platform may experience planned maintenance or unplanned outages. During downtime, no signals will be processed and no orders will be placed.
  • Data accuracy — position data, P&L calculations, and market data displayed on the Platform are sourced from broker APIs and may be delayed or inaccurate.
  • Software bugs — despite rigorous testing, software may contain bugs that could result in incorrect order parameters, duplicate orders, or missed signals.

6. SEBI Regulatory Disclaimer

Regulatory Status

  • IntradayNinja is not registered with SEBI as an investment advisor (IA), research analyst (RA), stockbroker, or portfolio manager (PMS).
  • We do not provide investment advice, trading tips, stock recommendations, or research reports.
  • The Platform is a technology tool that automates order execution based on user-configured signals. All trading strategies and decisions are the sole responsibility of the user.
  • Users are responsible for ensuring their trading activity complies with SEBI regulations, exchange bye-laws, and applicable Indian law.

7. Risk Capital

You should only trade with capital that you can afford to lose entirely without affecting your financial security or lifestyle. Do not trade with:

  • Funds required for essential living expenses.
  • Borrowed money or funds obtained through credit.
  • Retirement savings or emergency reserves.
  • Capital earmarked for education, healthcare, or other critical obligations.
