Understand the risk

Last updated: 14 October 2026.

Futures are risky

Trading futures, including NQ and MNQ, involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. Leverage means you can lose more than your initial deposit. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.

No promised results

Mercury Flow doesn't guarantee profits, a win rate, a daily income or a funded-account payout. A signal on the chart means the conditions you selected were met. It does not predict what price will do next.

Simulated results have limits

The indicator can draw how past setups would have played out. These simulated results don't include every cost, slippage, latency or liquidity effect of real trading, and settings tuned on past data can fit noise. Simulated or past results do not guarantee future results.

Reading order flow is interpretation

The footprint shows trades that happened. The order book shows orders that can be changed or cancelled at any time. Labels such as absorption, exhaustion or iceberg describe what the data looks like. They don't identify who traded or what they intend.

Your responsibility

Mercury Flow is educational and analysis software, not investment advice. Practise in replay or simulation, use realistic costs and decide your own risk. Consider talking to a licensed professional about your circumstances.
