Tactical usage of leverage

If you trade with a leverage of 1:100 the market would have to move 100 points against you for your position to be wiped out. On the other hand, if you trade with a leverage of 1:400 the market would only have to move 25 points against you for your position to be wiped out.

We recommend first opening a position with a low 1:100 Leverage, and only once you see that you've hit a strong trend, consider opening one with a 1:400 leverage.
