Some info about leverage

Leverage in Forex allows increasing trading accounts values by literally allowing traders operate with virtual money. For each real dollar traders fund their accounts with, Forex brokers add more funds, increasing traders buying/selling capabilities on the currency market. A leverage of 50:1, for example, means that for each dollar invested a broker adds 50 dollars on top, making the trading account 50 times larger. Thus, funding your account with $1000 at 50:1 leverage would enable you to operate a $50 000 account.

Only traders with really large accounts may afford trading Forex without leverage. For all other traders leveraging their investments is often the only way to participate in Forex currency trading and be able to operate large trading lots while make reasonable profits from trading Forex.

What leverage does, it allows a trader to trade money he/she doesn't possess. We may call it virtual money trading.
While it is possible to make profits with virtual money in Forex, it is absolutely impossible to lose virtual money, instead traders lose only real money they have invested or earned as a result of profitable trading.

Forex brokers offer various leverage options: from 10:1 to 500:1 know today.
While experienced traders have no problems choosing the next best leverage for their new trading accounts, novice traders often have difficulties selecting the right leveraging option. Besides that, warnings about dangers of high leverages published by other traders online create additional fears.

There is danger in almost everything if one doesn't know how to use it.

High leverage can be dangerous IF a trader doesn't have basic knowledge about using it properly. That's right, basics knowledge about leverage is just enough to keep any Forex trader away from troubles and actually stop worrying about this subject at all.

Let's learn those basics.

- Leverage enables any trader to be an equal participant on the Forex market alongside with big traders, such as banks, various financial institutions and individuals with large trading accounts;

- Leverage allows trading larger positions on the market, e.g. operate larger funds;

- The higher the leverage the larger trader's buying/selling capability on the market;

- The higher the leverage the lower margin requirements (we'll get to a margin later).


Let's now return to the words, said above:
"What leverage does, it allows a trader to trade money he/she doesn't possess. We may call it virtual money trading.
While making profits with virtual money is possible, it is absolutely impossible to lose virtual money, instead traders lose only real money they have invested or earned as a result of profitable trading."

Let's take an example.
Invested capital = $1000 dollars.
Leverage 50:1
Buying/selling capability = $1000 * 50 = $50 000

This enables a trader to buy/sell a regular trading lot size of $10 000, which looks good and feels good. But is it safe?

Leverage allows to trade larger positions on the market. Larger positions mean larger profits when a trader wins a trade, but also larger losses if a trader was wrong on the trade.
In our case (with $10 000 lot size) each pip trader earns brings him $10 profit, but each pip he loses cost him -$10.

Leverage concerns are all about losses. So let's focus on the simple math.
A normal regular situation: the market moves 20 pips against an open position and our trader loses 20 pips.
20 times $10 equals -$200.

Those $200 dollars will be subtracted from initial $1000 account balance, which will bring it to $800 now. (Buying/selling capability will now match $800 * 50 = $40 000)

What we actually have is that 1/5 of traders' initial investment has been lost in just one trade! — a trade where conditions were moderate, e.g. losing 20 pips is not a big deal for currency trading; traders on average may lose 35-50 pips on each trade. No need to mention that in two consecutive losing trades of -50 pips each our trader would lose his/her entire account, it is so quick! That's why you may hear that traders call high leverage as "leverage the killer".

Conclusion: one cannot trade with large virtual money having invested little real money. Highly leveraged account and high buying/selling capability doesn't mean one should be trading away with large trading lots.

In our case, having invested 1000 dollars no matter at what leverage, a trader can only trade reasonably with a lot size of 1000 dollars (or less) where each pip would cost $1 (or less). Hence, losing 20 pips would mean losing only $20 on one trade.
We advice trading with pip cost even smaller than $1 for accounts smaller than $1000 dollars.

Terima kasih untuk info Bro Devilcode.

memang saya faham leverage ini adelah satu advantage yg diberi oleh broker utk kita trade pada trader yg tidak mempunyai nilai dana yg tinggi untuk diniagakan, saya pernah dinasihatkan oleh trader lama dalam CG ni juga agar kita gunakan leverage 1:100-1:200 utk beginner level.(latihan di demo account).

hal ini kerana, jika kita menggunakan leverage yg lebih tinggi contoh (1:400-1:500), kita terlampau taksub untuk trade real account dgn cepat, disebbkan kita trader yg masih baru hilang pertimbangan untuk menilai accuracy trading dia. Sbb itu ramai yg baru mencuba forex ni terlampau yakin bahawa dia ni mmg dia boleh trade, walhal trading accuracy dia masih di tahap rendah.

contoh kata kita gunakan amount 3k usd dgn leverage 1:100 atau 1k usd 1:200. kita trade(demo)penggunaan lot kita dilimitkan, kita boleh nilai balik kecekapan kita dgn trading kita semasa kita masih didemo account. berapa lama kita boleh bertahan, berapa lama kita boleh konsistance dlm trading kita (demo akaun). dari proses pembelajaran ini, dari situ kita boleh tau yg kita ni tak cekap dan boleh memperbaiki dan terus memperbaiki sehingga la kita ni boleh mencapai tahap yg baik utk memulakan real account.

ni sekadar pendapat saya.
