DTS — Important Notice

Version production-3 · Posted November 1, 2026

1. About this service. DTS (Diamond Trading Systems) is a research service of Diamond Equity LLC. A membership starts with a free trial. The Terms of Service set out billing and cancelling.

2. What the reports are, and are not. DTS reports show what the DTS strategies indicate about market volatility and which assets they would hold, and what the DTS simulated trading accounts did. Every member gets the same reports. They are not tailored to you: they do not consider your finances, your goals or your tolerance for risk. They are not personal investment advice, and you must not treat them as an instruction to trade. Diamond Equity LLC is not your investment adviser, broker or fiduciary. Diamond Equity LLC is not registered as an investment adviser or a broker-dealer.

3. Use a simulated trading account. If you want to follow DTS in practice, use a simulated trading account: an account that trades no real money. Alpaca.markets is one provider that offers it. DTS does not trade real money for you or for anyone else. If you trade real money on DTS reports, you do so against this notice and at your own risk.

4. The figures in a report. A report has five kinds of figures. (a) Market data: index levels, asset names and past market returns, from our data providers. They can be delayed or wrong. (b) Indicator or strategy outputs: the DVI reading, and each strategy's state and the asset it would hold. (c) Simulated trade records: simulated orders placed in a live simulated account that we run. No real money. (d) Hypothetical benchmark results: what fixed rules would have returned, with no real account and no real orders. (e) Backtests: rules applied to past years, prepared with hindsight. Each table says which kind it is. No figure in a report is the result of a real account. Hypothetical and backtested results have known limits: they do not include every cost, and they do not show how a person acts under real losses. They do not predict future results. You can lose money trading the instruments that DTS names. Some of them, such as volatility products and leveraged funds, can lose most of their value quickly.

5. Automated decisions, AI, errors, delays and corrections. DTS decisions are made by fixed quantitative rules. AI systems then argue each decision for and against, finalize it, set the bounds it must stay within, and place the simulated orders in our live simulated account. No person reviews a decision before a simulated order is placed. The text in a report can be written by an AI system from DTS data. Rules, AI systems and data providers produce errors. Decisions, bounds, simulated orders, reports and alerts can be wrong, late, incomplete or missing. We can send a corrected report when we find an error. We do not promise to find every error or to correct it. A correction can come late. An earlier email cannot be recalled.

6. Changes and ending. We can change, pause or end the service, or your access to it, at any time. We have no duty to continue it or to keep past reports available. We can also change this notice at any time. We post the new version on the notice page with its date, and it applies from the day we post it. We do not ask you to accept it again: if you keep using the service after we post it, you accept the new version. Read the notice page from time to time.

7. Our own trading. Diamond Equity LLC and its people trade the instruments named in DTS reports, for their own accounts. They can buy or sell before or after a report is sent, and they can act differently from the strategies.

8. Keep it private; copyright. Reports, emails and this notice are copyrighted by Diamond Equity LLC. They are for you only. Do not copy, forward, publish or share them, or your sign-in.

9. No warranty; limit of liability. The service is provided "as is", with no warranty of any kind. To the extent the law permits, Diamond Equity LLC is not liable for any loss that results from use of the service.

10. Other names. Alpaca.markets is named only as an example of a provider of simulated trading accounts. Diamond Equity LLC has no affiliation with Alpaca.markets. Index and product names, such as VIX, belong to their owners; their use here does not mean that those owners sponsor or endorse DTS.

11. Your data. Our Privacy Policy says what data we keep, why, who handles it and for how long. We do not sell your data. You can stop the emails with the unsubscribe link in any email. You can ask us to delete your data by emailing [email protected]. The Privacy Policy says what we then delete and what stays. Emails are sent from an inbox that is not monitored.

12. Acceptance. By signing up, you confirm that you have read this notice and agree to it. Your agreement covers later versions of this notice as well: we post a new version with its date, and your use of the service after that day is your acceptance of it. We do not ask you to accept it again. If you do not agree with a version, stop using the service.
