Risk Disclosure

Last updated: 29 May 2025

Important Risk Notice: Trading financial instruments — including options — carries a high degree of risk. Please read this document carefully before participating.

1. Simulated Environment Disclaimer

All trading on the IndieFunded platform occurs in a fully simulated virtual environment. No actual buy or sell orders are placed on NSE or any other exchange. Simulated results do not reflect actual trading outcomes and cannot be guaranteed in live market conditions.

Past performance within IndieFunded's simulated environment is not indicative of future results in real live trading.

2. Nature of Options Trading Risk

Trading options involves: time decay (Theta), volatility risk, directional risk, liquidity risk, and gap risk. These risks exist in real markets and should be understood before engaging in live trading.

3. Simulated vs. Live Trading

Performance in a simulated environment may differ materially from live trading due to: absence of emotional pressures, differences in order execution speed and slippage, real-market liquidity variations, and extraordinary market events.

4. Reward Payouts — Not Investment Returns

Reward payouts made by IndieFunded to successful programme participants are not returns on investment and are not generated from actual market trading. They are funded from programme fees and company revenue as part of an educational incentive structure.

5. No Financial Advice

Nothing on the IndieFunded platform constitutes financial advice, investment advice, or any recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any financial instrument. We strongly recommend consulting a SEBI-registered investment advisor before engaging in live options trading.

6. Regulatory Notice

IndieFunded is not registered with SEBI as a broker, investment advisor, portfolio manager, or any regulated entity. Our services are educational and simulated in nature. Participants are solely responsible for understanding and complying with applicable Indian tax laws relating to any reward payouts received.

7. Acknowledgement

By participating in IndieFunded's programme, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to this Risk Disclosure Statement.
