Leverage
Dynamic Leverage
Our dynamic leverage model automatically adapts the amount of leverage required in real time, based on your trading positions. The way that it is applied differs depending on volume tier, i.e., the type of instrument and the risk profile associated with each asset class.
Dynamic leverage is used to balance risk appetite by allowing you to maximize your trading potential, taking into consideration the market risks that you are exposed to, particularly when trading larger volumes. It is considered a risk management tool, as it protects your account from excessive exposure.
