Customise Your Leverage to Your Needs

Bigger isn’t always better. You can customise the size of leverage you’re comfortable using on your trading account. You can start anywhere between no leverage and 1:777. Why wouldn’t you go as big as possible? Because higher leverage means more opportunities but also higher risk. The leveraged account can turn against you if the market does.

How skyetradings Protects You

Higher funds and higher leverage can be a highly risky combination. That’s why at skyetradings, we help you control that risk by limiting the amount of leverage you can use with higher balances. If your balance exceeds 100,000 USD, your leverage is up to 1:300, if it exceeds 200,000 USD your leverage is up to 1:200, and if it exceeds 300,000 USD your leverage is up to 1:100. We’ll always inform you before making any changes, and give you 24 hours to adjust your account.

What Is Forex Leverage?

Forex leverage is when you request debt from a broker to increase your trading power by a certain amount. This is done by lowering the margin blocked for one position, which makes more funds available for trading.

Why Is Using Leverage Risky?

Leverage can help you magnify your trading balance and open up to more opportunities but remember, the higher the leverage, the greater the effect fluctuation has on your profits and losses. By multiplying the trading amount, you can potentially multiply your profits even from small market movements. However, trading with leverage should be combined with a risk-aware approach and strict money management, to minimize the possibility of large losses due to unexpected market movements.

Always Combine Leverage With Risk Management

You can use leverage to your advantage if you implement a well-thought-out risk management strategy. Risk management tools include margin call, stop out, take profit and stop loss orders, position-sizing, and negative balance protection.
