Legal and risk notice

Education only

Nuqta Markets is an education platform. Everything on this site, in the lessons, the Playbook, the materials and the tools is for education and information only. Nothing here is investment advice, a research recommendation, a buy or sell signal, an offer or a solicitation to buy or sell any financial instrument.

Not a broker, not an adviser

Nuqta Markets is not a broker, dealer, bank, fund manager or financial institution. It does not execute orders, does not hold client money and does not manage accounts. Nuqta Markets is not licensed or regulated as an investment adviser or financial service provider by any authority, including the UAE Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA), the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA), the ADGM Financial Services Regulatory Authority, the Saudi Capital Market Authority (CMA), the Qatar Financial Markets Authority or any similar body, and it provides no regulated service. No lesson takes into account your personal financial situation, goals or risk tolerance.

Risk of loss

Trading forex, gold, indices, crypto-assets and contracts for difference (CFDs) carries a high level of risk and can result in the loss of all the money you invest; with leveraged products, losses can happen quickly. Most retail investor accounts lose money when trading these products. Only trade with money you can afford to lose without affecting your financial life, and make sure you understand how these products work.

Past and simulated results

Past results do not guarantee future results. Backtests, strategy statistics and demo account trades are hypothetical and have limits: they don't reflect real costs, slippage, liquidity or the emotional effect of risking real money. Charts, prices, figures and examples used in the lessons and on the site are illustrative and may be simulated.

Third parties and prop firms

Brokers, platforms, prop firms, tools and websites mentioned are examples only. Nuqta Markets has no link with them, does not recommend them and is not responsible for their services, rules, payments or changes of terms. Each prop firm sets its own rules, which can change at any time.

Your responsibility and local law

Every decision to trade, and any result of it, is solely the responsibility of the person who makes it. Before trading, check the laws, licensing rules and tax treatment that apply where you live, and, if relevant to you, whether a product or account type suits your religious requirements; seek independent professional advice where needed. Some products may not be available or legal in your country. Nuqta Markets services are for people aged 18 and over.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Nuqta Markets is not liable for any loss or damage, direct or indirect, arising from the use of the content, tools or information on this site, or from errors, delays or unavailability. By using the site, you confirm you have read and accept the Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy and the Risk Disclosure.

Questions

What is the best time to trade forex in the Gulf?

The London–New York overlap: about 17:00 to 20:00 in the UAE in winter (16:00 to 19:00 in Saudi Arabia), an hour earlier in summer. It has the highest liquidity and the clearest moves, and it falls after work hours.

Why do the times change during the year?

London, New York and Sydney switch to daylight saving time, while the Gulf countries don't. The clock above follows each city's real clock, so the times are always right.

Is the forex market open on weekends?

No. It opens with Sydney on Monday morning (Sunday night in New York) and closes on Friday evening with New York. Crypto keeps trading on weekends.
