Disclosures
Affiliate, earnings and general disclosures
Last updated: October 8, 2026
These Disclosures are part of our Terms of Use.
1. Affiliate disclosure
We may earn a commission if you use our code or link. Using our code never increases your price. This applies to every partner code and affiliate link on this site. We are not owned, run, employed or endorsed by these firms. Mentioning a firm or its evaluations is not a recommendation that you trade. Read each firm’s current rules and refund policy before you buy.
We receive compensation, such as commissions, when you buy from certain third parties using our codes or links, including:
- Apex Trader Funding: partner code KZRKEGJN and our referral link
- Lucid Trading: partner code CKGA3 and our referral link
This compensation creates a conflict of interest, and it may influence which firms we mention. We describe these firms as firms we have an affiliate relationship with. We don’t describe them as independently reviewed or recommended providers.
What this means for you
- Using our code never increases your price.
- Using a code is always optional. You don’t need a prop-firm account, an evaluation or any code to use CK Trader Pro.
- Prop-firm evaluations are third-party products with their own fees, rules and risks. Evaluation, reset and activation fees are generally non-refundable. Many traders don’t pass prop evaluations, and evaluation fees can be lost entirely. Payouts are not guaranteed.
- Many evaluation and “funded” accounts are simulated. Payouts are governed only by each firm’s terms, which vary by firm and change often.
- We don’t control or endorse any firm’s performance, decisions or payouts. Purchases from these firms are covered by their refund policies, not ours.
- Partner codes may come with a discount set by the firm. We only state a discount amount if we’ve confirmed it with the firm, and offers change without notice.
Where you’ll see this: wherever a partner code or affiliate link appears on this site, including blog posts, we note next to it: “We may earn a commission if you use our code or link. Using our code never increases your price.”
2. Earnings and results disclaimer
- We don’t promise that you’ll make money, pass a prop-firm evaluation, get a funded account or receive a payout.
- Any trades, account balances or examples mentioned on this site, in sessions or on social media are for education and illustration only. They aren’t typical, and your results will vary with your skill, effort, capital, risk management and market conditions.
- Trading in prop-firm evaluation or “funded” accounts is generally simulated and is not a real-money result.
- Past performance, actual or hypothetical, does not indicate future results. See the CFTC Rule 4.41 notice in our Risk Disclosure.
- We don’t currently publish member testimonials. If we ever do, they’ll follow our testimonials policy: process-focused only, from verified members who gave written consent, with any material connection disclosed.
3. General disclosure
- All content is general trading education. It isn’t investment, financial, legal or tax advice, and it isn’t a trade recommendation or signal service.
- Trading futures involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. You alone are responsible for your trading decisions.
