not guaranteed as to accuracy or completeness and are subject to change without any notice. Hypothetical or simulated
performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not
represent actual trading. Since, also, the trades have not actually been executed; the results may have been under or
over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as liquidity, slippage and commissions.
Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight.
