You acknowledge and agree that this website (www. Stockdisciplines.com) is a financial publication of StockDisciplines.com.

You understand and acknowledge that neither StockDisciplines.com nor any of the members, owners, managers, employees, or persons associated with StockDisciplines.com are registered as broker-dealers or investment advisers either with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, with any state securities authority, or with any other securities authority.

Persons associated with StockDisciplines.com may provide comments or commentaries about strategies, disciplines, procedures, securities, markets, and indexes (including but not limited to stocks, exchange traded funds or ETFs, mutual funds, interest rates, options, commodities, and other financial instruments). These comments or commentaries may include phrases such as “The stock is a buy at $50” or “The stock should be sold if it drops below $39.” You understand and agree that such phrases and statements are reflections of and contingent upon the particular contexts, perspectives, investment or trading time horizons, disciplines, and/or strategies, expressed or unexpressed of the writer or speaker at the particular time of expression. Since the commentator is not a licensed broker or registered investment advisor, and since the commentator does not know your individual financial situation, financial needs or goals, portfolio positions, tolerance for risk, or suitability requirements, you understand and agree that no comments on this website will be considered to be recommendations for you personally to act upon and that any such actions may not be suitable or appropriate for you. You understand and agree that none of the comments on this website are intended to be recommendations for you personally, regardless of how they are worded.

Some comments posted on this website are contingent upon timing or rapidly changing price, volume, or other considerations that might not be expressed or implied.  Therefore, a commentator may not consider his or her comments to be valid a few minutes after they are posted, but the commentator may not be willing or able to continue updating his or her postings to keep pace with the changes in the market.  Hence the comments were valid only at the time and in the context and with respect to other considerations and perspectives in the mind of the commentator expressed or unexpressed at the time of posting.  You agree that you will not consider ANY comments or commentaries on this website to be or to constitute recommendations that you personally buy or sell ANY security, and you agree that you will NOT rely upon these comments or commentaries in any manner for purposes of making decisions relating to securities transactions, nor will you construe them to be an offer or solicitation of an offer to sell or buy any security.

As a pre-condition for the use of this website you agree not to interpret the opinions of any person associated with StockDisciplines.com as constituting any form of investment advice.

As a pre-condition for the use of any of the products or services of StockDisciplines.com, you agree not to interpret any information generated by such products or services as constituting any form of investment advice.

You understand and agree that trades mentioned on the site and any performance reports made do not necessarily include trading commissions and other execution costs that may be or may have been incurred.

You understand and agree that past performance is no guarantee of future results.

You understand and agree that StockDisciplines.com, its members, owners, managers, employees, and persons associated with StockDisciplines.com cannot and do not assess, verify or guarantee the suitability or profitability of any particular investment.

You understand and agree that the risk of loss in trading securities of any kind can be substantial, and that you should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition.

You understand and agree that StockDisciplines.com, its members, owners, managers, employees, and/or persons associated with StockDisciplines.com bear absolutely no responsibility of any kind together or separately for your investment research or for your decisions, that you bear sole responsibility for your own investment research and decisions, and that you are hereby advised to seek the advice of a qualified securities professional before making any investment.

As an express pre-condition for your accessing and or using any information, tools, software, services, subscriptions, or licenses that may be obtained from or through the agency of StockDisciplines.com or its publication (www.stockdisciplines.com), you agree not to hold StockDisciplines.com, its members, owners, managers, employees, and/or persons associated with StockDisciplines.com liable together or separately for trading losses, lost profits or other damages resulting from your use of said information, tools, software, services, subscriptions, or licenses obtained in any form and by any means (including but not limited to Web-based, email-based, downloadable information, and software), and you agree to indemnify and hold StockDisciplines.com, its members, owners, managers, employees, and/or persons associated with StockDisciplines.com together and separately, harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees) arising from your violation of this agreement. This paragraph is not intended to limit rights available to you or to us that may be available under the federal securities laws.

You understand and agree that StockDisciplines.com, its owners, officers, managers, members, employees and associated persons work with many disciplines, strategies, and trading or investing models. They also take positions based on a wide variety of projected or anticipated holding periods. Also, a single individual associated with StockDisciplines.com may use more than one discipline at a given time either in a single account or in multiple accounts.  Different investment approaches may “buy” or “sell” at different times or call for contrary actions regarding the same security at the same time. At any given time, StockDisciplines.com, its owners, officers, managers, members, employees and associated persons may be using any of these strategies for their own accounts. In fact, it is possible that the same individual associated with StockDisciplines.com could sell a stock in one of his or her accounts while buying that same stock in another account being managed in accord with a different discipline.  As a result, StockDisciplines.com, its owners, officers, managers, members, employees and associated persons may have a position or interest in securities that are given a positive or negative review on this website.  Furthermore, that position may be contrary to or in alignment with the comments and commentaries posted on the StockDisciplines.com website. 

You understand and agree that on occasion a security, previously purchased or sold by officers, members, employees, owners, or other persons associated with StockDisciplines.com may be highlighted, discussed, or reviewed on this website either positively or negatively, and securities touted as “buys” or in some other way given a positive review may have already been purchased or sold by StockDisciplines.com, its owners, officers, managers, members, employees and associated persons. A stock may be both a “buy” and a “sell” candidate at the same time, depending on the particular strategy and investment time horizon used. For example, a commentator may call a stock a “buy” from a long term perspective while that same commentator is selling the stock because he or she is taking small profits based on very short-term moves (perhaps with the intent of buying the stock again in a day or two). StockDisciplines.com, its owners, officers, managers, members, employees and associated persons may also day-trade for its/their own account(s). That is, StockDisciplines.com, its owners, officers, managers, members, employees and associated persons may take a position with the intent of closing it out the same day, after only a quarter-point move or so, or intend to buy it again within an hour or two after selling it.

You understand and agree that StockDisciplines.com will from time to time modify the algorithms that are the basis of its software and subscription services, and that such modifications will be at the sole discretion of StockDisciplines.com, and that such changes will be implemented without notice to the visitors of the StockDisciplines.com website or to the subscribers or licensees of the services and/or products of StockDisciplines.com.

You understand and agree that StockDisciplines.com generates lists that are made available to subscribers and that those lists are NOT buy or sell recommendations, nor do they contain any buy or sell recommendations.  It is understood and agreed that when StockDisciplines.com, its owners, officers, managers, members, employees and associated persons use these lists for their own trading or investing, they will often reject most of the stocks on a given list because of overhead resistance, and/or other factors that the algorithms that generated the list cannot detect but have to be spotted by a visual inspection of the stock’s chart pattern. It is understood and agreed that the scan reports of StockDisciplines.com are intended only to narrow the field of potential candidates so a trader can spend his or her time more efficiently by reviewing only those stocks that have satisfied certain minimal requirements.  It is understood and agreed that THAT IS ALL THE LISTS ARE FOR, and that they are NOT lists of recommendations.  There are often reasons to avoid stocks even if they satisfy the minimal conditions required for them to be listed on a report.  The lists are made available to subscribers so they can use them the same way StockDisciplines.com, its owners, officers, managers, members, employees and associated persons use them.  It is understood and agreed that NOTHING in ANY of the reports or lists generated by StockDisciplines.com will be construed to be a recommendation to buy or sell ANY securities.
