Large leverage certainly provides an opportunity for us to be able to OP with larger lots so that the potential for profit and loss is also greater. Ideally leverage 1:200 or if possible and patient please take leverage 1:50 or 1:100 to prevent over lot

I think leverage is closely related to the capital used for trading. With minimal capital it would be nice for traders to use large leverage. An example of a trader who uses a capital of 100$ is suitable for using a micro account with a leverage of 1:1000.

As far as I know, between the risks and leverage is directly proportional, meaning the greater the value of the laverage we choose, the greater the risk value we will face

When we choose a lavavage we will use, surely it must be very wise, because the greater the lavavage we choose the risk is also getting bigger, otherwise we use it in a good and correct way

leverage is a good thing and we have to thank the broker because we have been given leverage. However, leverage has many risks if we do not use it properly.

Many beginners who are trading using a large value of laverage, this is not realized that the greater the lavavage is used, the potential of the risk is also very large

what we must understand and do is limit losses in trading, and the value of this laverage if it is not utilized correctly it will actually be able to embreed losses can be even bigger

When you use large leverage, your risk will also be large and vice versa. When you use small leverage, your risk is also small, so the two must be balanced so that your open position is also comfortable.

we can minimize risk in trading one way is to use a small value of laverage, the smaller the lavavage we will use the risk of trading we will also get smaller

When you use leverage that is too large, in my opinion, it is very important that the risk and leverage must be balanced, therefore I recommend that you use a maximum of 1: 1000 leverage, that's enough with a tight risk.

This is what you should know. When you trade and open your account, never use large or large leverage because when you use large leverage with small capital, you may open a lot of positions which will increase the durability of your account. narrow and the risk will definitely be big, therefore if you use leverage, don't use too much, just 1:500 to 1:1000 is enough with any capital

the greater the leverage, the greater the risk.  you should use small leverage for small risk

Leverage and risk in my opinion will be directly proportional, because the greater the value of the laverage will also be the greater the potential of the risk, in other words capital can run out quickly

When you use leverage make sure you also know the risks because when you can't know the risks of using leverage, you will have trouble later
