1. You should be aware that the risk of loss in trading commodity futures
or options contracts could be substantial. You may sustain a total loss
of your initial margin funds and any additional funds that you deposit
to establish or maintain a position. In addition, market conditions may
be such that your account can incur a negative balance. In this event
you will be liable for any deficit in your account. You should also be
aware that the exercise of a long option contract or the assignment of
a short option contract will result in a futures position.
2. You should study futures trading and consider all of your financial
obligations in determining whether the trading of commodity futures or
options is appropriate for you. Since the risk factor is high, only genuine
"risk funds" should be used.
