Risk disclosure

Trading futures and futures options involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every person. You can lose more than you intend to risk. Past results — including simulated results — do not predict future results.

Aether Funded Tests and Funded accounts are simulated evaluations. We do not hold client trading funds or route live exchange orders. Simulated fills can look cleaner than live fills. Slippage, rejects, lockups, and partials in a live market may be worse than what you see in the Control Center. If that model ever changes for a specific account, we will say so in writing first.

The fee you pay is for an evaluation. Hitting the end-of-day trailing drawdown, leaving a position open at the close, or otherwise failing the rules means that attempt is over. A paid reset is another fee for another attempt. We do not guarantee that you will pass, become Funded, or receive a payout.

Available balance is 90% of Funded-period profit after reserved requests, subject to five winning funded days before the first payout and a 14-day cadence after that. A request is reviewed. It can be denied. It is not a brokerage cash balance and not a claim on exchange-cleared funds.

Nothing on this site is investment, trading, tax, or legal advice. We do not manage your money and we do not accept trading deposits. You are responsible for your decisions and for knowing the laws that apply to you.
