Risk Disclaimer & Terms of Use

Last updated: September 2026

1. Not financial advice

Addition Stocks is a market analytics and signal platform. Everything you see — rankings, confidence scores, AI commentary, news sentiment, portfolio advice, email digests — is algorithmic output, not personalised investment advice. We are not a registered broker-dealer, investment adviser, or financial planner. Nothing on this site constitutes a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security.

2. You can lose money

Trading stocks involves substantial risk of loss, including the loss of your entire investment. Past performance of any signal, ranking, or model does not guarantee future results. You should only trade with money you can afford to lose, and you should consult a licensed financial professional before making any investment decision.

3. Live-trading mode is real money

When you connect an Alpaca Live account and enable live mode in Settings, every order Addition submits places a real-money trade in your brokerage account. Market, limit, and stop orders can execute instantly in volatile conditions. You alone are responsible for every trade placed under your account — including trades triggered by alerts, portfolio-advisor suggestions, or any automation you enable. Default to Paper mode until you fully understand the behaviour of every feature.

4. Pattern Day Trader (PDT) rule

US margin accounts under $25,000 equity are subject to the Pattern Day Trader rule. If you execute four or more day-trades in five business days, your broker may restrict your account for up to 90 days. Addition does not monitor your day-trade count. Check with Alpaca before trading.

5. Data accuracy

Market data is provided by third parties (Yahoo Finance / Alpaca) and may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate. Addition makes no warranty of any kind — express or implied — regarding the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any data, score, signal, or AI output on this platform.

6. AI-generated content

Portfolio advisor summaries, news sentiment, and model-picker explanations are generated by large language models and may contain errors or hallucinations. Always verify any claim before acting on it.

7. Account security

You are responsible for keeping your login credentials, 2FA device, and Alpaca API keys confidential. We recommend enabling 2FA. If you believe your account has been compromised, change your password immediately from Settings and disconnect your broker.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Addition Stocks and its operators are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your use of this platform — including, without limitation, trading losses, missed opportunities, data errors, service downtime, or reliance on any signal, score, AI output, or feature on this site.

9. Changes to this disclaimer

We may update this disclaimer at any time. Continued use of the platform after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

By creating an Addition Stocks account, connecting a broker, or using any feature on this platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted the full terms of this Risk Disclaimer.
