Past performance is NOT indicative of future results.

• Include a standard 0.5% round-trip trading cost assumption (bid-ask spread, brokerage, and other execution costs)
• May not reflect the actual results you would achieve due to slippage, market impact, or timing differences

Strategy allocations, weightings, and rebalancing frequencies may change at each rebalance date. Actual implementation results will differ from backtested performance.

5. Algorithmic Trading Risks

Algorithmic trading carries inherent risks, including:

• Technology Failures: System outages, software bugs, or hardware failures may prevent order execution
• Connectivity Issues: Network interruptions or API failures may disrupt trading
• Execution Delays: Orders may not execute at intended prices due to market conditions or system latency
• Broker Infrastructure: Order execution depends on your broker's systems; RupeeCase is not responsible for broker-side failures

Before deploying capital, you must understand the logic and mechanics of the trading strategy you are using. RupeeCase algorithmic trading complies with the SEBI circular dated February 4, 2025, and NSE/BSE algorithmic trading guidelines.
