All information contained herein is made subject to and superseded by the Eris Exchange rules. Current rules should be consulted in all cases concerning contract specifications. Futures trading is not suitable for all investors, and involves the risk of loss. Futures are a leveraged investment, and because only a percentage of a contract s value is required to trade, it is possible to lose more than the amount of money deposited for a futures position. Therefore, traders should only use funds that they can afford to lose without affecting their lifestyles. And only a portion of those funds should be devoted to any one trade because they cannot expect to profit on every trade. All references to options refer to options on futures. The contents of this document have been provided to you for informational purposes only and are intended as a broad overview of certain aspects of Eris Exchange. Eris Exchange assumes no responsibility for any errors or omissions. Additionally, all examples in this document are hypothetical situations, used for explanation purposes only, and should not be considered as investment advice, legal advice, or tax advice.
