3. IMPORTANT INVESTMENT DISCLAIMER

THE INFORMATION PROVIDED THROUGH OPTIONSANDSTOCKSPHD IS FOR EDUCATIONAL AND INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE PERSONALIZED INVESTMENT, FINANCIAL, TAX, ACCOUNTING, OR LEGAL ADVICE.

Nothing on the Website constitutes a recommendation that any particular security, option, transaction, strategy, or investment is suitable for you.

You are solely responsible for evaluating your financial circumstances, investment objectives, risk tolerance, and financial situation before making any investment or trading decision.

You should consult a qualified financial professional, investment adviser, tax professional, attorney, or other appropriate professional regarding your individual circumstances before making financial decisions.

4. NO GUARANTEE OF RESULTS

PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS.

Any examples of profits, losses, returns, performance, hypothetical results, backtested results, testimonials, or other performance information are provided for illustrative or educational purposes only.

There is no guarantee that you will achieve similar results.

Actual trading results can differ substantially from hypothetical, backtested, or historical results.

You acknowledge that your individual results may vary based on numerous factors, including market conditions, execution prices, commissions, fees, spreads, slippage, liquidity, timing, capital, trading discipline, and risk management.

5. OPTIONS TRADING RISK

Options trading involves substantial risk and is not appropriate for every investor.

Depending on the strategy, options trading can result in the loss of some or all of the capital committed to a trade and, in certain circumstances, may expose an investor to losses greater than the amount initially invested.

Before trading options, you should understand the characteristics and risks of options and determine whether options trading is appropriate for you.

You should carefully review the applicable options disclosure documents and consult an appropriately qualified professional if you do not understand the risks associated with options trading.

6. NO PERSONALIZED INVESTMENT ADVICE

Unless expressly agreed in a separate written agreement and provided in accordance with applicable law, the Services are not intended to provide individualized investment advice or portfolio management.

Information presented through the Website is generally intended for a broad audience and may not take into account your individual financial circumstances, objectives, or risk tolerance.

You are responsible for conducting your own research and making your own investment decisions.

7. NO BROKERAGE OR EXECUTION SERVICES

OptionsAndStocksPhD does not execute trades on your behalf through the Website unless expressly stated otherwise.

We do not control your brokerage account and cannot guarantee the execution of any trade.

You are solely responsible for placing, modifying, or canceling orders with your brokerage firm.

8. No Fiduciary Relationship

Your use of the Website or purchase of educational products does not, by itself, create a fiduciary, advisory, broker-client, attorney-client, accountant-client, or other professional relationship between you and OptionsStocksAndFinancePhD LLC.

Any professional relationship requiring a separate written agreement will be governed by that agreement.

9. Trading Decisions Are Your Responsibility

Any trading or investment decision you make based on information obtained through the Website is made solely by you and at your own risk.

We are not responsible for:

  • Your trading decisions;

  • Investment losses;

  • Missed opportunities;

  • Trading errors;

  • Brokerage execution;

  • Market movements;

  • Changes in market conditions;

  • Losses resulting from following a strategy;

  • Losses resulting from failing to follow a strategy; or

  • Any other investment or trading outcome.

You should never invest money that you cannot afford to lose.

10. Accuracy of Information

We attempt to provide information that is accurate and useful; however, we do not warrant that all information will always be complete, accurate, current, or error-free.

Financial markets change rapidly. Information that was accurate when published may subsequently become outdated.

We may use information obtained from third-party sources, market data providers, public filings, news sources, and other sources. We do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of information obtained from those sources.

11. Market Data and Delays

Market prices, quotes, charts, options chains, financial information, and other market data displayed through the Website may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate.

You should verify current prices and other relevant information through your brokerage firm or another reliable market-data source before placing a trade.

12. Hypothetical and Backtested Performance

Where permitted by law, the Website may present hypothetical, simulated, backtested, or model performance.

Hypothetical performance has inherent limitations and does not represent actual trading.

No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve results similar to those presented.

Hypothetical results may benefit from hindsight and may not fully account for commissions, spreads, slippage, liquidity limitations, execution issues, or other real-world factors.

13. Testimonials and Customer Results

Testimonials, reviews, screenshots, examples, and statements concerning customer experiences represent the experiences or opinions of the individuals providing them.

Individual results vary, and testimonials should not be interpreted as a guarantee or representation that you will obtain the same or similar results.

Where required by applicable law, material relationships or compensation associated with endorsements or testimonials will be disclosed.

Advertising and testimonials must not be misleading, and applicable federal advertising requirements may apply to representations made about the Services.

14. Purchases and Payments and Refunds

We do not offer refunds. At the discretion of the Seller, credits of equal value may be applied to the purchase of another course.

Certain Services require payment.

When you purchase a product or service, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate billing information;

  • Pay all applicable charges;

  • Use a valid payment method;

  • Authorize us or our payment processor to charge your selected payment method; and

  • Comply with the applicable purchase terms presented at checkout.

Prices may change at any time, but changes generally will not affect purchases already completed unless otherwise stated.

Payment processing may be handled by third-party payment processors.

15. Subscriptions and Recurring Charges

If you purchase a subscription or other recurring service, you authorize the applicable recurring charges according to the subscription terms presented at checkout.

You may cancel recurring subscriptions according to the cancellation procedures provided by the Website or applicable subscription terms.

Cancellation generally prevents future charges but does not automatically entitle you to a refund of amounts already paid unless otherwise stated or required by applicable law.

16. Refunds and Cancellations

Refund eligibility is determined by the refund policy presented at the time of purchase.

Unless a separate refund policy states otherwise, all sales may be final once digital products, educational materials, strategies, or other immediately accessible content has been delivered.

Nothing in this section limits any refund or cancellation rights that cannot legally be waived.

17. Digital Products and Access

When you purchase a digital product, subscription, course, strategy, report, or other digital service, you receive a limited, personal, non-transferable right to access and use the purchased content for its intended purpose.
