Risk Disclosure

Trading financial instruments involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. EXIT CODE is a pre-trade discipline tool — it does not generate trading signals, does not provide financial advice, does not connect to your broker, and does not guarantee any trading outcome. Use of EXIT CODE does not reduce or eliminate the inherent risk of trading. You are solely responsible for your trading decisions and any losses incurred.

1. What EXIT CODE is

EXIT CODE is a pre-trade discipline enforcement tool delivered as a TradingView Pine Script indicator (the "Lite" version, free, public; and the "Pro Agent" version, invite-only, paid) and an associated companion web application.

The product enforces a methodology you, the trader, define yourself. You bring your own technical setup criteria. You set your own stop loss, take profit, and risk parameters. The system flags deviations from the rules you set when calm.

2. What EXIT CODE is NOT

Not a signal service. The product does not tell you what to buy or sell, when to enter, or which direction to trade.
Not financial advice. Nothing on the website, in the indicator, in the companion app, in our emails, or in any course material constitutes personal financial advice under Australian Corporations Act 2001 or equivalent legislation in your jurisdiction.
Not a broker. EXIT CODE does not execute trades. We do not have access to your broker account. (Phase 3 will optionally integrate with brokers via OAuth, with your explicit consent — see Section 7.)
Not a guarantee of profitability. No tool can make you profitable. EXIT CODE only enforces discipline against your own pre-declared rules.

3. Subscription and pricing

Pricing is in USD. Stripe handles currency conversion automatically.

Lite: Free, no account required, public TradingView script.
Course: $499 USD one-time. Lifetime access.
Pro Agent: $99 USD per month. Invite-only TradingView script + companion web interface.
Pro Bundle: $1,999 USD one-time (first 100 members), then $2,499 USD. Includes course + 6 months Pro Agent + founding cohort access + permanent $79/mo locked rate after the included Pro period.

4. Refund policy

Lite is the free trial. Use it on real charts for as long as you need before deciding to upgrade. Once you purchase a paid tier, you have already evaluated the system.

Pro Agent ($99/mo)

Cancel any time from your account settings. Access ends at the end of your current billing cycle. No partial-month refunds.

Course ($499 one-time)

No refunds once any lesson has been accessed. If you have genuinely accessed no course content within 7 days of purchase, you may request a full refund. Access logs are the source of truth — opening a single lesson voids the refund window.

Pro Bundle ($1,999 / $2,499 one-time)

No refunds once any of the following has occurred:

TradingView invite-only access has been granted
Any course content has been accessed
Any cohort session has been attended (live or recording downloaded)
Direct messages have been sent to Operator Zero

If none of the above has occurred, you may request a full refund within 48 hours of purchase.

Why this policy

The product is invite-only software with anonymous founder access. Once granted, the methodology, code, and cohort dynamics cannot be "returned." This policy protects the integrity of the founding cohort and prevents abuse patterns common in retail trading education. Lite gives you everything you need to evaluate before paying — use it.

Statutory rights (cannot be excluded)

This policy does not limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law or equivalent consumer protection legislation in your jurisdiction. If the product has a "major failure" (not as described, defective, unsafe, etc.), you are entitled to a refund regardless of this policy. Contact legal@exitcode.trade for refund requests.

5. Acceptable use

You may not:

Share your TradingView invite-only access with anyone else (each Pro Agent subscription is single-username)
Reverse-engineer the Pine Script source (Pro Agent script is intentionally protected)
Resell, sub-license, or redistribute any part of the product
Use the product in jurisdictions where its use would be illegal under local financial services regulation
Misrepresent the product as endorsed by any of the cited authors (Hougaard, Douglas, Steenbarger, Tharp) — we reference their published works under fair-use citation

6. Founding cohort terms (Pro Bundle only)

Cap of 100 members at the $1,999 founders rate. Once 100 are claimed, price moves to $2,499.
The "$79/month locked rate for life" applies after the included 6 months of Pro Agent ends. This rate remains valid as long as your subscription is continuously active. If you cancel and resubscribe more than 30 days later, you re-enter at the then-current public rate.
Direct access to "Operator Zero" (the anonymous founder) is via a private channel in the community — typical response time within 24 hours, not guaranteed.
Weekly cohort journal review sessions are voice-only (anonymous brand stays intact). Recordings are made available to cohort members only.

7. Phase 3 broker integration (future feature)

Phase 3 (planned for Q2 2026) introduces optional broker API integration for auto-execution of YOUR pre-declared rules (e.g., auto-close at your declared max loss). This feature requires:

Explicit OAuth consent to connect your broker account
Acknowledgement of additional risk disclosures
Pending lawyer review of AFSL classification (the system never decides what or when to trade — it only executes user-set rules — but this is being verified)

Phase 3 is not active at launch. Subscribing today does not enable any broker connection. You will be notified separately when Phase 3 becomes available.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, EXIT CODE and Kritsotakis Investments Pty Ltd as trustee for the Kritsotakis Family Trust are not liable for any trading losses, lost profits, lost opportunities, indirect damages, or consequential damages arising from your use of the product. Our maximum aggregate liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

This limitation does not exclude or limit any rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot be excluded.

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify EXIT CODE and Kritsotakis Investments Pty Ltd as trustee for the Kritsotakis Family Trust against any claims arising from your trading decisions, your misuse of the product, or your violation of these Terms.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. Any dispute will be resolved in the courts of New South Wales.

11. Changes to these Terms

If we make material changes, we will email registered users with at least 30 days' notice before the change takes effect. Your continued use after the change constitutes acceptance.
