(Proprietary Trading Evaluation and Engagement Framework)
Effective Date: 01/02/2026
1. Introduction
This Risk Disclosure Statement (“Disclosure”) applies to:
- Participation in the Evaluation Program conducted through FundedIn; and
- Any proprietary trading engagement with Credantium LLP, a Limited Liability Partnership incorporated under the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008, having LLPIN ACQ-8649 (the “Firm”).
This Disclosure does not constitute:

- A securities offering.
By accessing the Platform or entering into any trading-related arrangement with the Firm, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted this Disclosure.
2. General Market Risk
Trading in securities, derivatives, and financial instruments involves substantial risk. Market prices may fluctuate rapidly due to:
- Economic events;
- Corporate announcements;
- Regulatory changes;
- Political developments;
- Liquidity constraints;
- Global market movements;
- Market sentiment.
There is no assurance that any trading strategy will be profitable or that losses will be avoided. Losses may occur quickly and without warning.
3. Derivatives Risk
Trading in derivatives (including futures and options) involves heightened risk due to:
- Leverage effects;
- Margin requirements;
- Rapid price movements;
- Time decay (in options);
- Volatility expansion and contraction;
- Gap openings;
- Mark-to-market obligations.
Small market movements may result in disproportionately large gains or losses. Derivatives trading may result in substantial losses within short timeframes.
4. Intraday and Volatility Risk
Intraday or short-duration trading strategies are subject to:
- Sudden price spikes;
- Liquidity gaps;
- Slippage;
- Order execution delays;
- Exchange volatility mechanisms;
- Circuit breakers;
- Market suspensions.
Rapid intraday movements may cause:
- Immediate drawdowns;
- Forced position reductions;
- Triggered stop-outs;
- Execution at unfavorable prices.
Past intraday performance does not predict future results.
5. Simulation and Performance Variability
5.1 Simulation Risk
Performance achieved within the Evaluation Program is simulated and:
- May not reflect real-world liquidity;
- May not reflect actual transaction costs, brokerage, taxes, or slippage;
- May not reflect exchange latency, partial fills, or execution delays;
- May differ materially from live trading performance.
Simulated results are hypothetical and may not be indicative of actual trading results.
5.2 Live Trading Variability
Even in proprietary trading engagements:
- Performance may vary significantly over time;
- Drawdowns may occur;
- Periods of zero or negative performance may occur;
- Market conditions may render certain strategies ineffective.
No level of performance is guaranteed to persist.
6. No Guaranteed Funding, Income, or Returns
Participation in the Evaluation Program or any proprietary trading engagement:
- Does NOT guarantee funding;
- Does NOT guarantee capital allocation;
- Does NOT guarantee profit;
- Does NOT guarantee incentive payments;
- Does NOT guarantee any level of income.
Any performance-based incentive:
- Is variable;
- Is discretionary;
- Is subject to risk controls;
- May be reduced, adjusted, deferred, or withheld.
The Firm makes no representation of guaranteed earnings, profitability, or financial benefit.
7. Capital Risk Allocation
All capital deployed in proprietary trading engagements:
- Belongs exclusively to the Firm;
- Is risked solely by the Firm;
- Is subject to market losses.
Participants:
- Do not contribute trading capital;
- Do not bear capital loss;
- Do not acquire ownership interest in trading accounts;
- Do not hold beneficial interest in securities traded.
However, incentive compensation, if any, is directly linked to trading performance and may be zero in the event of losses or underperformance.
8. Execution, System, and Technology Risk
Trading and platform activity may be affected by:
- Technology failures;

- Affect trading strategy viability;
- Impact capital allocation;
- Alter leverage or margin requirements;
- Restrict certain instruments;
- Result in trading suspensions.
Government directives or regulatory actions may materially affect operations.

- The Firm does not provide investment advice;
- No fiduciary, advisory, brokerage, or client relationship is created by participation in FundedIn or any proprietary trading engagement.

Access to and participation in the Evaluation Program or proprietary trading engagement is not undertaken as an investment and is not entered into with any expectation of guaranteed income, capital growth, or financial return. Trading outcomes are inherently uncertain.
