Disclaimer

This Disclaimer applies to everything published by TapeDash Analytics LLC, doing business as TapeDash ("TapeDash," "we," "us"), on tapedash.com, the member portal, mobile apps, newsletters, the blog, social media and any other channel (the "Service"). It is part of our Terms of Service.

Not Investment Advice; We Are a Publisher

All content on the Service, including trade alerts, Flow Signals, Large Prints and other options-flow information, setups, scans, ratings, scores, model portfolios, newsletters, blog articles, AI-generated answers, educational courses and commentary, is general and impersonal. It is published to all members of a plan in the same form and is not tailored to anyone's financial situation, objectives, holdings, tax position or risk tolerance. TapeDash Analytics LLC is not registered as an investment adviser, broker-dealer or commodity trading advisor with the SEC, FINRA, the CFTC or any state, and nothing on the Service creates an advisory, fiduciary or brokerage relationship. We do not execute trades, manage money or hold customer funds.

You Are Responsible for Your Own Decisions

You alone decide whether to act on any information, and you are solely responsible for your trades, investments and their results. Before making any investment decision, consider your own circumstances and consult a licensed financial, legal or tax professional.

Risks of Trading, Especially Options

Trading and investing in securities carries a high degree of risk and can result in the loss of some or all of your capital. Options are complex and especially risky: they can lose value quickly, can expire worthless, and short-dated contracts (including same-day "0DTE" options) can move very sharply in minutes. Selling options can expose you to losses greater than the premium received. Leverage, margin and short-term trading magnify both gains and losses. Before trading options, read Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options, published by The Options Clearing Corporation and available from your broker or at theocc.com. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.

Alerts Are Automated and Time-Sensitive

Alerts, signals and other outputs are generated largely by automated systems using third-party data. They can be wrong, delayed or based on data that is later corrected. Prices shown in an alert reflect what our systems saw when it was created; by the time you see it, the market may have moved and you may not be able to trade at a similar price, especially in options with wide bid/ask spreads or low volume. Alerts, updates and notifications may arrive late or not at all. We may change the rules that produce alerts, stops, targets and grades at any time.

Performance, Track Records and Backtests Are Hypothetical

Win rates, track records, graded results, backtests and other performance figures shown by TapeDash are hypothetical. They are calculated by our systems from alert prices using stated rules, assume trades at prices you may not have been able to get, and do not reflect actual trades by TapeDash or by any member. They do not account for commissions, fees, slippage, liquidity, partial fills, taxes, or the timing and size of your own decisions, and they may be affected by changes in our methodology over time. Hypothetical results have inherent limitations, and results achieved in the past may have been influenced by market conditions that will not repeat. Past performance, actual or hypothetical, is not indicative of and does not guarantee future results. No representation is made that any member will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

Testimonials

Testimonials and reviews reflect the experience of the individuals who gave them, may not be representative of other members, and are not a guarantee of future performance or success.

Positions and Conflicts of Interest

TapeDash, its owners, team members and contractors may hold, buy or sell securities or options that are discussed on the Service, and may trade differently from or contrary to any alert or analysis. Content should not be read as a statement that anyone at TapeDash holds or will take any particular position.

AI-Generated Content

Some content, including AI Assistant answers, AI chart reads, summaries, company profiles and portions of newsletters and reports, is generated or assisted by artificial intelligence. AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete or outdated even when it sounds confident. Check it against other sources before relying on it.

Simulated Trading

The Funded Challenge, paper trading, chart drills, Tape Lab and similar features use simulated money and simulated fills. Simulated results do not reflect real trading, where execution, liquidity and emotions can produce very different outcomes.

Third-Party Data and No Guarantee of Accuracy

Market data, options data, news and other information on the Service come from third-party providers and exchanges. Neither TapeDash nor its providers warrant that any information is accurate, complete, current or uninterrupted, and neither is responsible for errors, omissions or delays or for actions taken in reliance on the information.

Forward-Looking Statements

Discussion of what may happen next (for example, scenarios, levels to watch, expected moves or earnings outcomes) reflects views at the time of writing, is uncertain, and may prove wrong. We are under no obligation to update it.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, TapeDash and its owners, team members, contractors and data providers are not liable for any loss or damage, including trading or investment losses, arising from your use of or reliance on the Service. See our Terms of Service for the full terms that govern your use, including the limitation of liability and dispute resolution sections.
