AlgoLodge’s role

AlgoLodge presents systematic trading models and information about investing and past performance. AlgoLodge is not a broker, trading venue or bank and does not accept client trading funds. Any trading account is opened in the customer’s own name with an external broker.

Operating as a sole proprietor does not in itself exempt a business from rules governing investment services or financial marketing. Applicable licensing and disclosure requirements depend on the services actually offered and the customer’s country.

Important CFD risk disclosure

CFDs are complex instruments and carry a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. According to AvaTrade’s published risk warning, 57% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider (checked 18 October 2026). Consider whether you understand how CFDs work and can afford the high risk of losing your money.

The percentage comes from AvaTrade’s public risk disclosure and may change. Always check the current, complete risk warning for the specific legal broker entity with which you open an account on the AvaTrades webbplats. The standardised warning required in marketing depends on applicable rules and the actual CFD provider.

Market movements, liquidity, price gaps, margin requirements and trading costs can cause substantial losses. Positions may be closed automatically if margin is insufficient. Never invest money you cannot afford to lose.

Risks of automated trading and trend following

The models may take positions in rising and falling markets. Their purpose is to follow established trends, not predict that a particular market will rise. Trends can reverse abruptly and markets may lack clear trends for extended periods.

Automatic copying of trades through a third-party platform does not remove trading risk. Differences in execution prices, order timing, spreads, account size, technical interruptions and position sizing can cause investor results to differ from model performance. Models trading different markets can still lose money at the same time.

Past performance

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Live trading, model accounts and any simulated results must be distinguished and reported with the correct period, currency and calculation method. Fees, deposits, withdrawals and execution differences can affect an individual investor’s returns.

Models with limited history or trading just one market may have long periods without favourable trends. Even previously successful models can produce substantial losses.

Fees and costs

According to the fee description published by AlgoLodge, an annual management fee of 2% of capital and a performance fee of 20% of profits, subject to a High Water Mark, apply. Review the full terms and how fees are calculated and charged before investing.

For the model arrangement described here, AvaTrade and DupliTrade are stated not to charge a separate commission per trade. Trading costs instead arise, among other things, from bid–ask spreads, which can be wider than those of the underlying market and vary with conditions. Other costs, including overnight financing or foreign exchange charges, may apply under the relevant broker’s terms.

Suggested capital amounts for models do not guarantee that the amount will always be sufficient. The AlgoLodge manager receives the stated management and performance fees through arrangements with external providers. No separate account-opening referral fee is included in the compensation structure described here. This compensation creates a commercial interest in customers using the models.

Accounts, providers and custody of funds

AvaTrade and DupliTrade are separate third-party providers with their own terms and privacy policies. The broker’s legal entity and applicable customer protections depend on your residence and the account you open. Deposits and withdrawals are handled by the broker, not AlgoLodge.

Read the broker’s account terms, full risk warning, fees and procedures for activating, stopping and managing copied trading, including open positions.

No personal investment advice

This website provides general information and does not account for your financial circumstances, risk tolerance or objectives. It is not a personal recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument. This description does not determine whether any part of the business requires regulatory authorisation.

Regulation and geographical restrictions

CFD trading, copy trading and the marketing of financial services may be subject to different rules depending on country and customer type. Not all models or account arrangements are available in every jurisdiction. The availability of a website language does not mean services can be provided in all countries where that language is spoken.

Managed Futures and other management arrangements

Arkad Managed Futures and AlgoLodge models traded through CFD accounts are separate arrangements. Their contracts, instruments, risks, costs and performance records may differ. Information about one does not automatically apply to the other.
