Legal
Nothing on this site guarantees success or money. No content here promises profit, income, or any other result, and no such promise should be read into it.
The author and owner is not liable for any profit or loss you make. Every decision taken in your account is yours alone, and responsibility for its outcome rests entirely with you.
None of the information here is claimed as the author’s own. These are the shared concepts of financial markets, described and attributed, not invented.
Who runs this site
The Curve is written, built and owned by Jaisman, who publishes online under the handle s7ven. Both names refer to the same individual. Where the site is signed “s7ven” and where legal documents use “Jaisman”, no distinction is intended and no second party is involved. References in these pages to “the author” or “the owner” mean that same person.
Not advice
The Curve is educational reference material. It is not investment, financial, legal or tax advice, not a recommendation, and not a solicitation to trade any instrument. Nothing here is tailored to your circumstances. Reading it creates no advisory or professional relationship of any kind.
The author holds no registration as a research analyst with the Securities and Exchange Board of India, and no investment adviser or broker licence in any jurisdiction. Where you need advice, consult a professional who is licensed to give it and who knows your situation.
No guarantee of any result
Where this site describes how a measurement is interpreted by traders, it is reporting a claim made by others, not endorsing that claim as true or profitable. Every concept documented here has a limitations section for exactly this reason. The honest position is that whether anything works in your market, on your timeframe, with your costs, is an empirical question you would have to answer yourself with your own data.
Past behaviour of any market, instrument, indicator or measurement is not a reliable indicator of future behaviour.
Liability
You use this site at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the author and owner accepts no liability for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, anything published here. That includes trading losses, lost profits, missed opportunity, and any indirect or consequential loss, however caused.
The reverse is also true: the author claims no share of, and no credit for, any gain you make.
Ownership and attribution
The terminology, definitions, history and mechanics described on this site belong to the field, not to the author. Concepts such as Market Profile, the footprint chart, delta, VWAP and the option Greeks were developed by others, and where a specific person or institution is responsible, this site names them. No claim of authorship over any of these ideas is made or implied.
The written expression on these pages, together with the site’s design, code and original diagrams, is the author’s own work. Quote it with attribution, link to it freely, but please do not republish it wholesale under another name.
If you believe anything here is misattributed, infringes your rights, or should be credited differently, get in touch and it will be corrected.
Accuracy
Content is provided as-is. Exchange rules, contract specifications and regulation change, and pages can go out of date. Anything numerical should be confirmed against the relevant exchange’s own documentation before you rely on it.
Risk warning
Trading futures and options involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. With leveraged instruments, losses can exceed the amount deposited. Do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
Jurisdiction and contact
This site is operated from India by Jaisman, publishing as s7ven, and is governed by Indian law. For corrections, attribution questions or legal notices: support@thecurve.in.
