leverage and risk are like twins, if leverage is equated with currency then the two sides are opposite but close, that is leverage.

Big risk is associated with large leverage, but not forever because it could be caused by mistakes made by yourself.

Even though the use of leverage can be very profitable, you must also know the risks.
Use leverage wisely, balance it with the capital you have.

When using too much leverage, sometimes we always want to open trades continuously, this is a danger and very risky.

Reason why leverage is dangerous is because by being able to open large trades, capital will quickly run out due to the burden of the leverage.

The risk will increase if the leverage is also getting bigger, but if the trader applies the management properly, even the large leverage will still be well controlled and in trading, many traders will definitely choose large leverage.

if a trader can choose the leverage properly, the risk can also be reduced, many traders suggest that traders choose a relatively small leverage to be safer and maintain their trading account.

Leverage is closely related to risk, because multiplying the amount to increase the margin, so that it can make a bigger trade. automatically the greater the leverage, the greater the profit and risk.

Most traders always want to quickly profit, using high and inappropriate leverage is the trigger for the increased risk they are exposed to.
They open trades continuously and without realizing that it is over a lot.

leverage and risk are directly proportional, the greater the leverage, the greater the risk that must be borne by the trader unless he can make the best use of it.

The comparison between the risk and profit from using leverage is indeed comparable, but forex trading must have a greater percentage profit to be successful.
use balanced leverage supported by good techniques, is the right combination.

Leverage and risk are similar and have the same place, if the leverage is large, the risk involved is also greater and vice versa.
