This leverage calculation is very important and we must adjust it with our skills and capital capabilities and the targets we will achieve.

Right, leverage is a double-edged sword, if you can't choose leverage well then you will be hurt yourself.

Forex brokers usually have leverage in forex trading.
The function of leverage, is that a relatively small increase in funds can make transactions with a much larger contract value.

Example:
Brokers who apply 1: 100 leverage, then you only need a fund of $ 100 to make a transaction worth $ 10,000. The $ 100 money is called margin, while the transaction value of $ 10,000 is called Contract Size. That is, the capital you need is only 1%.
leverage like a double-edged sword. on the one hand it is profitable and on the other hand it is dangerous

leverage must know the calculation, and balance with trading capital and be regulated by good management money. like that, it can only be said to be trader profesional.

good leverage is based on capital, if 1: 200 will be safe if the capital is above $ 100.

The concept of leverage is indeed very profitable in forex trading, but it can also be dangerous if you are not careful in using it,
