ManiBot Safety Manifesto

gavel What ManiBot Is NOT

• Not personalized investment advice — We provide educational content and AI-generated analysis, not recommendations tailored to your financial situation.
• Not a guarantee of profits — Past performance of any strategy does not guarantee future results. All trading involves risk.
• Not a substitute for professional advice — Always consult a licensed financial advisor before making real investment decisions.
• Not real trading — Paper trading uses virtual money. Results in paper trading may differ significantly from real trading.

psychology How AI Can Be Wrong

Our AI analysis is powered by multiple providers (OpenAI GPT-5, Google Gemini, Perplexity, DeepSeek), but AI is not infallible. Here's what you need to understand:

Why AI Makes Mistakes

• Training data cutoff — AI models have knowledge cutoffs and may not reflect the most recent market events.
• Pattern recognition limits — Markets can behave irrationally. AI trained on historical patterns may fail during unprecedented events.
• No real-time awareness — AI doesn't watch live news. Breaking events can invalidate analysis instantly.
• Hallucinations — AI can confidently state incorrect facts, including wrong stock prices, earnings dates, or company information.
• Overconfidence — High "confidence scores" from AI don't correlate to accuracy. A 90% confidence prediction can still be completely wrong.

warning Trading Risk Disclosure

Understanding Trading Risk

• Market volatility — Stock prices can move rapidly and unpredictably. Losses can exceed your expectations.
• Leverage amplifies losses — If you use margin or options in real trading, losses can exceed your initial investment.
• Emotional decisions — Fear and greed lead to poor trading decisions. Paper trading helps you practice discipline.
• Paper vs. real performance — Paper trading doesn't include real-world factors like slippage, order execution delays, and emotional pressure.

health_and_safety Risk Management Guidelines
