Risk Disclosure

Effective date: 7 October 2026

Read this before you use Smooth Brains. Trading can lose money, including everything you allocate.

Not financial advice

This page is a risk disclosure. It is not financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. Smooth Brains does not tell you to buy, sell, or hold any asset.

You can lose all funds

Crypto and perpetual futures trading is highly risky. Prices move quickly. Funding, margin, and liquidation can increase losses. You can lose all funds you allocate. Only use capital you can afford to lose.

Past performance

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Backtests, shadow runs, and live history can differ from what happens next. Published artifacts are historical records, not a promise of returns.

Non-custodial

The Service is non-custodial. You sign every move. Smooth Brains never holds your keys. Funds stay in the wallet and venue account you control. You can pause trading. You remain responsible for your wallet and for the permissions you grant.

Fees

A performance fee of 20% applies to monthly trading-account equity growth above your high-water mark. No performance fee is charged when equity is below that mark. You sign fee payments. The venue may charge its own trading fees on top.

No guarantee of availability

There is no guarantee of availability. Software, infrastructure, and Hyperliquid can fail, lag, or reject orders. A failure can prevent entries, exits, or reporting.

Legal where you live

You must check that it is legal for you to use the Service where you live. Smooth Brains does not offer the Service where it is prohibited, for example to US persons if Hyperliquid restrictions apply. If you are unsure, do not use the Service and get your own legal advice.
