We should not choose leverage that is too high because this is not good. we should choose low leverage only

when we talk about leverage, we really have to know that too much leverage will make us messy and open a lot of positions, but with good risk, we can suppress the leverage

these two things are very important and must always be balanced between risk and leverage, must be in accordance with the actual situation, don't let you be too big to use leverage and don't use too much risk

This is one important thing, don't ignore leverage and risk because these two tools are very important when you trade foreign exchange, the leverage should not be too much and the risk should not be too big.

between risk leverage must be related When you use high leverage you can determine the risk that is small as if there is not too big using leverage so that there are not too many and positions

using leverage and risk is one way so that we can avoid our ability to think, therefore we must be able to balance leverage and risk properly

With large leverage, the risk is that the funds can be completely sold out, in contrast to smaller leverage, if there is a stop out there is still enough funds to trade again. So depending on the MM and RM of each trader, please adjust it so that there is no stop out storm

Different traders choose different leverage, and myself until now at Instaforex still stick with 1:1000 leverage and this I feel comfortable, because I'm used to it, so I can manage capital better, to be able to survive and be able to generate profits.

what is definitely not misleading is the person who recommends small leverage. it is definitely safer on our account. because it can withstand the onslaught of emotions when our trading is out of control. You can try with 1:50 leverage with a simple MM then the account will be difficult to get MC

we must be wiser from the start when opening an account. if we want high risk trading, then we can take a large leverage as well.. but if we want to do long term make sure with reasonable leverage.

leverage and risk is one way so that we can get more open positions but make no mistake when we use too much leverage it is something wrong or an ineffective action

good leverage is one that is not more than 1:1000 When you are more than 1:1000 I don't think it is effective for you to use and your risk will be even greater so you speed between leverage and risk

One principle that must be understood is that the smaller the leverage, the greater the durability of the margin, and conversely, the greater the leverage, the smaller the durability of the margin. So, if you want to have a strong margin, then ideally use a small leverage.

if traders want to be more secure they can use low leverage, 1:1 maybe, but of course the margin needed is large and maybe not enough funds to open one lot if with low leverage, I think leverage 1:100 is enough for low risk trading as long as be wise in using the smallest lot
