Tiedbook · Operated by MRSLM Group LLC Last updated: October 20, 2026
This Risk Disclosure forms part of our Terms of Service. Please read it in full before using Tiedbook.
1. Tiedbook does not give advice
1.1 Tiedbook is software that helps you organize and review your own trading records. Every statistic, chart, calendar, "edge," "mistake," fee-leak finding, payout-readiness indicator, replay, calculator result and support reply is general information about historical data. None of it is investment, trading, financial, tax or legal advice, and none of it is a recommendation or solicitation to buy, sell or hold any futures contract, option, security or other financial product, or to follow any strategy.
1.2 Words such as "edge," "mistake," "leak" and "ready" describe patterns found in your past data by rules you can inspect. They are not forecasts, and they do not mean a pattern will continue.
1.3 Regulatory status. MRSLM Group LLC is not registered with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), the National Futures Association (NFA), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or any other financial regulator, in any capacity. We are not a futures commission merchant, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor, commodity pool operator, investment adviser, broker-dealer or prop firm. We do not place trades, manage accounts, hold funds or receive compensation from any broker or prop firm based on your trading.
1.4 You alone are responsible for your trading decisions. Before trading, consider your objectives, experience and financial situation, and consult a properly licensed professional if you need advice.
2. Futures and leverage risk
2.1 Substantial risk of loss. Trading futures and options on futures involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. Only money you can afford to lose (risk capital) should be used.
2.2 Leverage. Futures are traded on margin. A relatively small deposit controls a much larger contract value, so a small price move can produce a large gain or a large loss. You can lose all of the funds you deposit and, in some cases, more than you deposited, and you may be required to deposit additional funds at short notice.
2.3 Fast and illiquid markets. Prices can move quickly, gap overnight or around news, or become illiquid. Stop orders do not guarantee that losses will be limited to the amount you intend, because orders may be filled at prices worse than the stop price, or not at all.
2.4 Costs. Commissions, exchange, clearing and regulatory fees, platform and data fees, and prop-firm fees all reduce returns. Frequent trading can make costs a large share of results, which is one reason Tiedbook shows fees explicitly.
2.5 Technology risk. Platforms, data feeds, internet connections and brokers can fail. Tiedbook does not connect to your order flow and cannot protect you from these failures.
3. Past performance
Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. This applies to every number in your journal, to any sample or example figures on our website, and to statistics that appear strong. Statistics based on small numbers of trades are especially unreliable; where the Service shows sample sizes or confidence ranges, they describe uncertainty about the past, not a promise about the future.
4. Hypothetical and simulated performance (CFTC Rule 4.41)
Several Tiedbook features show results that did not actually occur or that come from simulated accounts, including: replays of fills, "what-if" fee comparisons, payout planning, calculator outputs, demo or sample data, and results from evaluation or simulated ("sim-funded") accounts. The following statement, prescribed by CFTC Rule 4.41(b)(1), applies to all such results:
In addition, hypothetical results do not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical record can fully account for the effect of financial risk in actual trading, such as the ability to withstand losses or to stick to a plan despite losses.
Testimonials. Tiedbook does not publish customer testimonials. If we ever do, any testimonial may not be representative of other customers' experience and is no guarantee of future performance or success, and we will disclose if it was paid for.
5. Prop-firm evaluations, rules and payouts
5.1 Third-party products. Evaluations, "combines," challenges, funded and "express" programs are products of independent prop firms. Tiedbook is not affiliated with, endorsed by or paid by any prop firm (see /disclaimer).
5.2 Accounts are often simulated. Many prop-firm accounts, including many "funded" accounts, trade in a simulated environment. Results in those accounts may differ from what would happen with live orders in the market.
5.3 Rules change and are interpreted by the firm. Prop-firm rules (daily loss limits, trailing drawdown, consistency rules, minimum days, contract limits, news restrictions, payout schedules, fees and splits) vary between firms and programs, change over time, sometimes without notice, and are interpreted and enforced by the firm alone.
5.4 Our rule tracking is an estimate. Tiedbook's rule tracking, drawdown and consistency calculations, payout-readiness planner and fee presets are derived from the data you upload and from publicly available information as of the date shown. They may be incomplete, out of date or wrong. Your firm's own dashboard, written rules and decisions are always authoritative. A Tiedbook indicator that you are within a limit or ready for a payout does not mean you have passed, will pass or will be paid.
5.5 No guarantee of passing or payout. Using Tiedbook does not guarantee that you will pass any evaluation, keep any account, or receive any payout. Firms may deny, delay or reduce payouts, close accounts, or change programs under their own terms.
6. Data accuracy
Imports and calculations depend on files and data from third parties that may be incomplete, mislabeled, in an unexpected time zone or format, or changed without notice, and our software may contain errors. Your broker's or clearing firm's official statements are the authoritative record. Verify anything important against them before relying on it for trading, tax, accounting, payout requests or disputes. See Section 9 of our Terms.
7. Taxes
Tiedbook is not a tax-reporting system. Tax treatment of futures (for example, under U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 1256) and of prop-firm payouts depends on your circumstances and jurisdiction. Consult a qualified tax adviser.
