The Sanders Team Educational & Trading Risk Disclaimer
Effective Date: August 24, 2026
1. Important Notice
The Sanders Team provides educational trading mentorship, digital educational materials, market-related educational content, and access to an optional private community.
All information provided by The Sanders Team is intended solely for educational and informational purposes.
Trading financial markets involves substantial risk. You should carefully review this Educational & Trading Risk Disclaimer before purchasing, accessing, or relying upon any content provided by The Sanders Team.
By accessing The Sanders Team website, purchasing or renewing our educational mentorship, participating in educational sessions, subscribing to our private community, viewing our content, or otherwise using our services, you acknowledge and accept the risks described in this Disclaimer.
2. Educational Purposes Only
The Sanders Team is an educational trading mentorship business.
Content provided through our website, mentorship, course materials, private community, videos, live sessions, recorded sessions, charts, market breakdowns, written materials, social media, communications, examples, and other resources is provided for educational and informational purposes only.
Nothing provided by The Sanders Team should be interpreted as personalized financial, investment, legal, accounting, or tax advice.
Nothing provided through our services constitutes an individualized recommendation or instruction to purchase, sell, hold, or otherwise transact in any particular financial instrument.
Any discussion of a financial market, security, futures contract, currency pair, option, cryptocurrency, commodity, trading setup, entry, exit, stop loss, target, or other market-related subject is intended to demonstrate educational concepts and should not automatically be interpreted as a recommendation that you take the same action.
3. No Investment Adviser or Fiduciary Relationship
Participation in The Sanders Team mentorship or private community does not create an investment adviser-client relationship, brokerage relationship, fiduciary relationship, portfolio-management relationship, or other professional financial advisory relationship.
The Sanders Team does not take control of your brokerage account, execute trades on your behalf, or make individualized investment decisions for you as part of the educational services described on this website.
You remain solely responsible for deciding whether, when, and how to participate in financial markets.
4. Trading Involves Substantial Risk
Trading financial instruments involves substantial risk of financial loss and is not appropriate for every person.
Financial markets can move quickly and unpredictably. Losses may occur because of market volatility, leverage, liquidity conditions, execution quality, slippage, economic events, geopolitical developments, unexpected news, technology failures, human error, psychological factors, or other circumstances.
Depending on the market, product, account structure, and use of leverage, you may lose some or all of the capital committed to trading.
Certain leveraged financial products may expose traders to significant losses in a short period of time.
You should never trade capital that you cannot afford to lose.
5. You Are Responsible for Your Trading Decisions
Every decision you make regarding your brokerage account, trading account, proprietary trading firm account, investment capital, risk exposure, position sizing, leverage, entries, exits, stop placement, and other trading activity is your responsibility.
The Sanders Team is not responsible for deciding whether a particular trade or trading strategy is appropriate for your individual financial circumstances.
Before participating in financial markets, you should independently evaluate your financial condition, experience, objectives, and tolerance for risk.
Where appropriate, you should consult a properly qualified financial, legal, tax, or other professional adviser regarding your individual circumstances.
6. No Guarantee of Profitability or Results
The Sanders Team does not guarantee that you will make money, become profitable, achieve financial independence, receive proprietary trading firm funding, receive payouts, pass trading evaluations, improve your trading performance, or achieve any particular financial result.
Purchasing or renewing our mentorship does not guarantee success.
Joining our private community does not guarantee success.
Following an educational model, framework, process, setup, strategy, routine, or risk-management concept does not guarantee success.
Trading involves uncertainty, and no trading methodology can eliminate the possibility of loss.
Your results may differ significantly from the results of The Sanders Team, its instructors, other members, students, customers, or individuals discussed in educational or promotional materials.
7. Past Performance
Past performance is not a guarantee or reliable prediction of future performance.
Historical trading results, percentages, account growth, payouts, funded-account results, trading statistics, screenshots, winning trades, losing trades, case studies, charts, or other examples should not be interpreted as an indication that the same or similar results will occur in the future.
Market conditions change over time, and a trading strategy or methodology that performed successfully during one market environment may perform differently in another.
Previous results cannot eliminate the risk of future losses.
8. Hypothetical, Simulated, and Backtested Results
The Sanders Team may occasionally use hypothetical, simulated, backtested, replay-based, or otherwise reconstructed trading examples for educational purposes.
Such results have important limitations.
Hypothetical or simulated trades do not represent actual trading and may not fully reflect the effects of real-world factors such as liquidity, slippage, spreads, commissions, execution delays, emotional decision-making, account restrictions, market volatility, or the ability of a trader to continue following a strategy after experiencing losses.
Backtested or simulated strategies may also benefit from knowledge of historical information that would not have been available when an actual trading decision was required.
Accordingly, hypothetical or simulated results should not be considered a promise, guarantee, or prediction that an actual account will achieve comparable profits or losses.
Where applicable, The Sanders Team will provide additional disclosures required in connection with the presentation of hypothetical or simulated performance.
9. Educational Trade Examples and Market Breakdowns
The Sanders Team may discuss historical trades, potential market scenarios, educational setups, market structure, price levels, entries, exits, targets, risk levels, or other trading concepts.
Such discussions are educational demonstrations.
Even where educational commentary occurs while markets are open or references current market conditions, you remain responsible for independently deciding whether to place a trade.
You should not assume that The Sanders Team or any instructor has entered, will enter, has exited, or will exit a position simply because a particular market or setup is discussed.
Educational commentary should not be treated as a trade signal or personalized trading instruction.
10. Testimonials and Student Results
The Sanders Team may publish testimonials, reviews, customer experiences, trading achievements, funded-account results, payouts, performance examples, or other statements concerning individual experiences.
Individual results are not necessarily representative of the experience of other customers.
Testimonials and examples do not guarantee future performance or success.
Results may vary significantly depending upon experience, skill, discipline, consistency, psychology, account size, risk management, execution, market conditions, time commitment, and other circumstances.
Where a testimonial or endorsement is compensated or subject to another material relationship requiring disclosure, The Sanders Team intends to make appropriate disclosure in accordance with applicable requirements.
11. Proprietary Trading Firms and Funded Accounts
Educational materials may discuss proprietary trading firms, evaluations, funded trading accounts, payouts, account rules, or experiences involving third-party trading firms.
The Sanders Team does not control third-party proprietary trading firms.
Rules, pricing, evaluation requirements, drawdown limits, payout requirements, account conditions, technology, eligibility standards, and business practices of third-party firms may change at any time.
Any previous achievement of funding, evaluation success, account performance, leaderboard ranking, or payout does not guarantee that you will obtain comparable results.
The Sanders Team does not guarantee acceptance, funding, payouts, continued account access, or any other outcome involving a third-party proprietary trading firm.
12. Leverage and Margin Risk
Certain financial markets allow traders to control positions substantially larger than the amount of capital deposited in their accounts.
Leverage can increase potential gains, but it can also significantly increase potential losses.
Small adverse price movements may result in substantial losses relative to the amount of capital used to establish a position.
Margin requirements and broker or proprietary trading firm rules can also change because of volatility, market conditions, risk policies, or other factors.
You are responsible for understanding the leverage and margin requirements associated with any financial product you choose to trade.
13. Market, Technology, and Execution Risk
Trading results can be affected by circumstances beyond the control of The Sanders Team.
Market orders may execute at prices different from those expected. Stops may experience slippage. Liquidity may disappear during volatile periods. Spreads may increase. Trading platforms, exchanges, data providers, internet connections, brokers, payment providers, or other systems may experience outages, delays, errors, or interruptions.
Educational examples may not reflect the precise price or execution available to an individual trader.
The Sanders Team is not responsible for losses caused by brokerage execution, exchange conditions, third-party technology, internet outages, data errors, platform failures, or similar circumstances outside our reasonable control.
14. Economic Events and Market Volatility
Financial markets may experience significant volatility around economic reports, central-bank decisions, political developments, geopolitical conflicts, earnings releases, unexpected news, market openings, periods of low liquidity, and other events.
Price movement during these periods may be sudden and significant.
Risk-management methods cannot guarantee protection against every market condition, including price gaps, extreme volatility, insufficient liquidity, or execution at prices materially different from those requested.
15. Information May Become Outdated
Financial markets and economic conditions change continuously.
Although The Sanders Team makes reasonable efforts to provide useful educational information, we do not guarantee that every statement, statistic, chart, example, market observation, lesson, or resource will remain accurate, complete, current, or applicable to future market conditions.
Educational content may contain historical information that is no longer current.
You should independently verify material information before making financial decisions.
16. No Reliance on Educational Content as Your Sole Decision-Making Source
The Sanders Team educational content should not be your sole basis for making financial decisions.
You are responsible for conducting your own research, evaluating risks independently, and deciding whether trading is appropriate for you.
The availability of educational content does not relieve you of responsibility for understanding the instruments, platforms, rules, risks, and financial commitments associated with your own trading activities.
17. No Earnings Representation
Nothing provided by The Sanders Team should be interpreted as a representation that trading will provide you with a particular amount of income.
We do not represent that trading through the methods taught by The Sanders Team will replace employment income, generate a particular monthly or annual return, create financial freedom, or produce consistent profits.
Any reference to potential returns, account performance, trading results, or financial accomplishments is provided in context and is not a guarantee of what another person will achieve.
18. Educational Strategies May Experience Losses
Trading education may include concepts relating to entries, exits, continuation setups, reversal setups, risk management, market structure, and other trading methodologies.
No strategy performs successfully under every market condition.
A strategy may experience individual losses, consecutive losses, drawdowns, periods of underperformance, and changing performance characteristics.
A valid trading concept can still result in a losing trade.
Risk management can help manage exposure but cannot remove trading risk.
19. Psychological and Behavioral Risk
Trading decisions can be affected by fear, greed, overconfidence, hesitation, frustration, revenge trading, excessive leverage, failure to follow a plan, and other psychological or behavioral factors.
Educational knowledge alone does not guarantee disciplined execution.
You remain responsible for managing your own behavior, risk exposure, and trading decisions.
20. Third-Party Brokers, Platforms, and Services
The Sanders Team may reference brokers, charting platforms, proprietary trading firms, exchanges, software providers, economic-data services, or other third-party products and services.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, references to third-party services are provided for informational purposes and should not automatically be interpreted as an endorsement.
The Sanders Team is not responsible for the conduct, performance, policies, security, solvency, execution practices, account rules, pricing, or availability of independent third-party businesses.
You are responsible for conducting your own due diligence before using any third-party service.
21. Applicable CFTC and Performance Disclosures
Certain presentations of hypothetical, simulated, or performance-related information may be subject to Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations or other applicable advertising and disclosure requirements.
Hypothetical and simulated results contain inherent limitations and should not be relied upon as if they were actual trading records.
No representation is being made that any customer or trading account will achieve profits or losses comparable to educational, hypothetical, simulated, historical, or otherwise presented results.
Where applicable law or regulation requires additional performance disclosures, those disclosures should be read together with this Disclaimer.
22. Use of Our Services Is Voluntary
Your decision to purchase The Sanders Team mentorship, renew your quarterly membership, subscribe to the private community, study our educational material, or participate in financial markets is voluntary.
You assume responsibility for determining whether our educational services and trading generally are appropriate for you.
You also acknowledge that purchasing educational services does not transfer responsibility for your trading results to The Sanders Team.
23. Limitation of Responsibility for Trading Losses
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, The Sanders Team and its owners, instructors, employees, contractors, affiliates, representatives, and service providers are not responsible for trading losses or financial decisions made by users based upon or influenced by educational information provided through our services.
Nothing in this section is intended to exclude liability that cannot legally be excluded.
Additional limitations of liability governing your use of our services are contained in The Sanders Team Terms & Conditions.
