The factual information on this website has been

by Striker Securities, Inc. (“Striker”) or its affiliates. The
risk of trading can be substantial and each investor and/or trader must consider
whether this is a suitable investment. Past performance, whether actual or

Disclosure Statement for the additional disclosure.
Futures Trading Disclaimer:
Transactions in securities futures, commodity and index futures and options
on futures carry a high degree of risk. The amount of initial margin is small
relative to the value of the futures contract, meaning that transactions
are heavily "leveraged" A relatively small market movement will
have a proportionately larger impact on the funds you have deposited or will
have to deposit: this may work against you as well as for you. You may sustain
a total loss of initial margin funds and any additional funds deposited with
the clearing firm to maintain your position. If the market moves against
your position or margin levels are increased, you may be called upon to pay
substantial additional funds on short notice to maintain your position. If
you fail to comply with a request for additional funds within the time prescribed,
your position may be liquidated at a loss and you will be liable for any
resulting deficit. Depending on the clearing firm which carries your account,
there may be a $50.00 closing fee processing charge.
Securities Trading Disclaimer: (back to top)
Unlike futures, which are regulated exclusively by the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (“CFTC”), securities are regulated by both the Securities & Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) as well as the investor’s home State.
Although Striker Securities, Inc. is a registered securities broker-dealer
with SEC, it is not registered to conduct securities business in all 50 states.

Forex Trading Disclosure: (back to top)
Trading cash Foreign Exchange (“FX”) contracts carries the same
high level of risk as futures trading (Futures Trading Disclaimer). However
cash FX, unlike futures FX contracts that are regulated by the Commodity Trading
Futures Commission, are not regulated by any governmental agency. In addition,
because there is not a central clearing house for cash FX transactions, there
is also a counterparty risk for each contact. For additional information please
read the National Futures Association (“NFA”) August 2003 “NFA
Investor Alert” found
on the Striker
Disclaimer Page.
Trading Foreign Exchange carries a high level of risk and may
not be suitable for all investors. There is a possibility that you could sustain
a loss of all or more of your investment therefore you should not invest money
that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated
with Foreign Exchange trading.
RJO FX acts as the counterparty to each transaction and as a liquidity
provider to its clients using it's access to the inter-bank market. In
doing so, RJO
FX assumes the risk associated with such a transaction. A portion of RJO
FX's profitability may be the difference between the bid and the offer
provided
to the client, as well as its ability to offset any risk transferred to RJO
FX by its clients.
