Risk notice
What BrightDragon Trading does and does not do, and the risks of trading. Please read this before you use anything on this website.
Version 1.0 · Effective 31 October 2026
01 What we are, and what we are not
Important
BrightDragon builds trading tools, and tests trading strategies: free calculators, strategy testing on past data, and turning your own rules into code.
We don’t give financial advice, signals or recommendations. We don’t tell you what or when to trade, we don’t manage money, and nothing here is an invitation to trade. We are not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and we don’t provide regulated financial services.
Trading carries risk and you can lose money. We cannot guarantee profits, and past or tested results are not a reliable guide to future results. Any decision to trade, and any strategy the software runs, is yours.
02 Trading carries risk
Trading carries risk. The value of investments can go down as well as up and you can lose money. Past or tested performance is not a guide to future results. We sell software only: no advice, no signals, no promise of profit.
03 What a test shows, and what it does not
What this is, and what it is not
We do not give financial advice, and we make no promises about returns.
A backtest tells you how a defined set of rules would have behaved on historical data, under stated costs and stated assumptions. It is not a prediction, it is not a recommendation, and it is not a guarantee of any result. We do not tell you whether a strategy is worth trading, we do not give strategy advice, and we do not sell signals or manage accounts. You bring the rules; we build them, test them honestly, and report what the data actually shows, including when it shows the idea does not work.
The same applies to our tools and calculators, free or paid. They carry out the calculations and instructions you give them. They do not choose trades, give signals or recommend any investment, and their output is not advice.
BrightDragon Systems Ltd provides software development and testing services only. Nothing on this page is investment advice, a recommendation, or an invitation to trade. We are not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and we do not provide regulated financial services.
Trading carries risk and you can lose money. Any decision to trade, and any strategy the software implements, is entirely yours. No software can guarantee an outcome, and past testing results are not a reliable indicator of future results.
