Welcome to Trailing Stop Loss. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of trailingstoploss.com (the "Site"), operated by Trailing Stop Loss ("we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you don't agree with any part of them, please stop using the Site.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing the Site, creating an account, subscribing to our newsletter, leaving a comment, or otherwise interacting with our content, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and that you accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy. We may update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the revised Terms.

2. Educational Content — Not Financial Advice

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission publishes extensive guidance for retail investors on evaluating financial information and the difference between licensed advice and general commentary, available at the SEC's Investor.gov portal.

3. Trading Risk Disclosure

Trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. The risks vary by market, but include the following at a minimum:

• Futures and commodities — leveraged products that can result in losses exceeding your initial deposit. Risk disclosures required by U.S. law are explained on the official CFTC consumer education site.
• Forex — extremely leveraged and operates across jurisdictions with varying regulatory protection.
• Cryptocurrency — highly volatile, largely unregulated in many jurisdictions, and subject to total loss of principal.
• Stocks and ETFs — subject to market, sector, and company-specific risks.
• Prop firm challenges — involve upfront fees, strict rules, and the realistic possibility of failing the evaluation and losing those fees.

You are solely responsible for your own trading decisions and outcomes. Any trade idea, setup, chart pattern, indicator, or strategy discussed on the Site is presented as an example of analytical thinking — not as a recommendation for you to enter a position. Discussion of historical setups in our day trading, futures, and forex categories is illustrative, not prescriptive.

4. No Guarantees of Accuracy

We make reasonable efforts to ensure our content is accurate at the time of publication, but markets move fast and information ages quickly. We do not warrant that any content on the Site is current, accurate, complete, reliable, or fit for any particular purpose. Prices, quotes, statistics, and references to third-party services (such as prop firms or brokers) may be outdated by the time you read them.

If you spot an error, we'd appreciate you flagging it — but you use the information at your own risk regardless.

5. Affiliate and Advertising Disclosure

The Site is supported in part by advertising and affiliate partnerships. We may receive compensation when readers click certain links or sign up for services we cover — including prop firms, brokers, charting platforms, and educational products. These relationships are disclosed in accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's endorsement guidelines, summarized on the official FTC endorsement guidance page.

Affiliate compensation does not influence our editorial coverage. We write about products and services we believe are relevant to our audience, and we publish critical assessments of partners when warranted. Reviews of prop firms in our prop firms category reflect our editorial assessment, regardless of affiliate relationships.

6. Acceptable Use

When using the Site, you agree not to:

• Use the Site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law or regulation
• Scrape, crawl, mirror, or systematically download content without written permission (basic search engine indexing excepted)
• Republish, redistribute, or resell our content without authorization
• Use automated tools (bots, spiders, AI crawlers for training datasets) to access the Site without permission
• Post or transmit spam, malware, phishing links, or harmful code
• Impersonate any person or entity, including any of our staff
• Harass, threaten, defame, or harm other users in comments or any other interactive feature

• Interfere with the Site's normal operation (denial-of-service attacks, etc.)
• Use the Site to solicit other users for unrelated commercial purposes

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access for any user who violates these terms, with or without notice.

7. User-Generated Content

If you submit comments, replies, or any other content to the Site ("User Content"), you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual license to use, display, modify, and distribute that content in connection with the Site. You represent that you own or have the right to submit the content and that it doesn't violate any third-party rights.

We do not pre-screen User Content and are not responsible for opinions expressed by readers in comments. We reserve the right (but not the obligation) to remove any User Content that violates these Terms, is off-topic, or that we otherwise find objectionable — at our sole discretion.

8. Intellectual Property

All content on the Site — including articles, images, charts, diagrams, logos, layout, code, and branding — is the property of Trailing Stop Loss or its licensors and is protected by U.S. and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You may:

9. Third-Party Links and Services

The Site contains links to third-party websites, products, and services — including brokers, prop firms, exchanges, news outlets, and analytics platforms. These links are provided for convenience and reference. We do not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for any third-party site or service. Your interactions with any third party — including any transactions, account openings, or disputes — are solely between you and that third party.

Before signing up with any prop firm, broker, exchange, or other financial service we mention, do your own due diligence. Read their terms, verify their regulatory status, and confirm they're legitimate.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

11. Limitation of Liability

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Trailing Stop Loss and its owners, operators, contributors, affiliates, and licensors from any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Site; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property or privacy right; (d) any User Content you submit; or (e) any trading or financial decision you make based on content from the Site.

13. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. You may stop using the Site at any time. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination — including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law — will survive.

14. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site shall be resolved through binding individual arbitration administered by a recognized arbitration body in Minnesota, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court if eligible.

You waive any right to participate in a class action, class arbitration, or representative action against us. If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable, then the entire arbitration clause is unenforceable, and disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Minnesota — to whose jurisdiction you consent.

15. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

16. Entire Agreement

These Terms, along with our Privacy Policy and any other policies referenced on the Site, constitute the entire agreement between you and Trailing Stop Loss regarding your use of the Site. They supersede any prior agreements, understandings, or communications.

17. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we'll change the "Last updated" date at the top of the page. For material changes, we may provide additional notice through a banner on the Site or an email to subscribers. Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the revised Terms.
