Risk warning
Fixed-time and digital options are high-risk speculative products. You can lose all of the money you deposit. This warning applies to every Quotex page on this site.
You can lose all the money you deposit. Most retail traders of fixed-time options lose money over time. Never trade with funds you need for living costs, debt, or anyone else.
Risk of capital loss
A fixed-time option settles to a fixed outcome: a correct prediction pays a set amount, an incorrect one loses the staked amount. Repeated losses compound quickly, and the payout structure means you typically need to win more often than you lose just to break even. Treat every amount you deposit as money you are prepared to lose entirely.
No guaranteed income
No strategy, signal, indicator, bot, "mentor" or account manager can guarantee profit. Anyone promising guaranteed returns, "risk-free" trading, or a fixed daily income is misleading you, and often running a scam. This site never promises profit and does not give personal investment advice.
Why this product is especially high-risk
- Short expiries and constant availability encourage overtrading.
- Synthetic/OTC markets can behave differently from public exchanges.
- The platform is offshore and not protected by a tier-one regulator, so the safeguards a regulated investment would carry may not apply. See is Quotex safe? and is Quotex legal?
Behavioural risk
The biggest losses often come from psychology, not the market: chasing losses, increasing stake size to "win it back", and trading under stress. The gap between a calm demo session and real money is real. If trading stops feeling optional, treat that as a warning sign and seek support.
Practical rules
- Only deposit money you can afford to lose completely.
- Start on the demo account and keep stakes tiny when live.
- Never borrow to trade and never add funds to recover a loss.
- Ignore anyone guaranteeing profit or offering to trade for you.
- Check your local laws and regulator before opening an account.
