Trading contains substantial risk and is not for everyone.
You could potentially lose all, or more than the initial investment. Risk
capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones financial security
or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading, and only those
with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Nothing contained
herein, nor presented at a DTG meeting, nor at other DTG activities, shall ever
be construed as a recommendation to buy or sell. You are solely
responsible for the trading decisions you make. NO expressed or implied
warranties are ever made in trading. Denver Trading Group
