It abstains from the transmission, custody, or management of customer funds, covering both traditional and cryptocurrency assets.

To ensure ongoing compliance, TradersPost regularly engages with regulatory authorities to confirm its adherence to all relevant local and federal laws.

TradersPost does not provide alerts, signals, research, analysis, or trading advice of any kind. It is designed to assist traders and investors in making their own trading decisions based on their alerts. The platform does not offer recommendations regarding securities to buy or sell, nor does it provide trading or investing advice. The platform and its features, capabilities, and tools are provided 'as-is' without any warranty.
