Commission Rule 4.41(c)(1) applies to "any publication, distribution
or broadcast of any report, letter, circular, memorandum, publication,
writing, advertisement or other literature…." Commission Rule 4.41(b)
prohibits any person from presenting the performance of any simulated
or hypothetical futures account or futures interest of a CTA, unless
the presentation is accompanied by a disclosure statement. The
statement describes the limitations of simulated or hypothetical
futures trading as a guide to the performance that a CTA is likely to
achieve in actual trading.
Additional Risk Disclosure Statement for System Traders:
Commission Rule 4.41(b)(1)(I) hypothetical or simulated performance
results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual
performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading.
Also, since the trades have not actually 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 profits or losses. There have
been no promises, guarantees or warranties suggesting that any trading
will result in a profit or will not result in a loss.
HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME
OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY
ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO
THOSE SHOWN. IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY
ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM.
ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT
THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN
ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO
HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF
FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO
WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE
OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT
ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO
THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC
TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION
OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY
AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.
