2. ARVO is not a broker
ARVO is not a broker, exchange, investment manager, portfolio manager, custodian, bank, or financial institution.
ARVO does not:
- execute trades on your behalf;
- hold or custody your trading funds;
- control your brokerage account;
- manage your investment portfolio;
- guarantee execution or trading outcomes.
3. No financial or investment advice
ARVO is provided as a journaling, accountability, self-reflection, discipline, and analytics tool.
Nothing provided through ARVO constitutes financial, investment, trading, tax, accounting, or legal advice.
Information displayed by ARVO must not be interpreted as:
- a recommendation to buy or sell a financial instrument;
- a personalized investment recommendation;
- a trading signal;
- a prediction of market direction;
- a guarantee of profitability;
- an instruction to enter, exit, or modify a trade.
You remain solely responsible for your trading and investment decisions.
4. Trading risk
Trading financial markets involves substantial risk.
You may lose some or all of the capital you commit to trading.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Historical statistics, discipline measurements, profitable periods, patterns, correlations, associations, or other information displayed in ARVO do not guarantee similar future outcomes.
You should trade only with capital you can afford to lose and should consider obtaining independent professional advice where appropriate.
5. ARVO scores, statistics and reports
ARVO may calculate information such as:
- ARVO Score;
- discipline scores;
- rule adherence;
- rule violations;
- win rate;
- profit and loss statistics;
- routine completion;
- trading-day comparisons;
- weekly comparisons;
- behavioural patterns;
- Daily Recaps;
- Weekly Reports.
These outputs depend on the information available to ARVO.
They may be incomplete or misleading where underlying data is missing, incorrect, incomplete, inconsistent, or entered incorrectly.
You are responsible for reviewing the accuracy of information you enter into the Service.
6. Association does not mean causation
ARVO may display relationships between trading outcomes and recorded behaviours such as:
- routines;
- emotions;
- news preparation;
- rule adherence;
- discipline.
These relationships are observational and analytical.
They do not establish that a particular behaviour caused a particular financial result.
You should not treat these relationships as predictive trading signals.
7. User accounts
You may be required to create an account to use ARVO.
You agree to:
- provide accurate account information;
- maintain the security of your credentials;
- not share access in an unauthorized manner;
- notify ARVO if you become aware of unauthorized access;
- remain responsible for activity performed through your account where permitted by applicable law.
You must not attempt to access another user's account or information.
8. Eligibility

[MINIMUM AGE]
and legally capable of entering into these Terms under the laws applicable to you.
ARVO may impose additional eligibility requirements where required by law or by particular features.
9. User data
You retain your rights in information and content that you submit to ARVO.
You grant ARVO the limited rights necessary to host, process, calculate, display, and otherwise use that information for the purpose of providing, maintaining, securing, and improving the Service, subject to the Privacy Policy.
ARVO does not acquire ownership of your trading journal merely because you store it using the Service.
10. User responsibility for data
You are responsible for information you enter into ARVO.
You should verify important trading records independently where necessary.
ARVO should not be treated as the sole permanent record of information that you are legally, financially, or professionally required to retain.
You are responsible for maintaining any independent records or backups that you consider necessary.
11. Report exports and sharing
ARVO may allow you to download or share representations of your journal or reports.
You are responsible for reviewing an exported report before sharing it.
Reports may contain:
- profit and loss information;
- trading statistics;

- discipline information;
- other information associated with your journal.
Once you voluntarily share an exported report outside ARVO, ARVO cannot control how third parties store, copy, distribute, or otherwise use that shared copy.
