Leverage & margin
Leverage sets how much collateral a position needs. It does not make a position safer — it makes a larger position reachable, and a larger position carries proportionally more risk to your capital.

01
Leverage scales with the liquidity and volatility of the underlying: deepest on FX majors, tighter on metals and indices, tightest on digital assets. Maximum leverage is confirmed per legal entity and jurisdiction — regulatory caps override every band in the draft schedule, and the figure that applies to you is shown in the client portal before you trade.
The raw book
Bid and ask, level by level — the price behind the price.
02
Required margin is notional divided by leverage, per symbol, in real time. The account’s margin level — equity against required margin — is the number that matters: it triggers the call at 100% and the stop-out at 50% in the draft schedule.
03
Professional users of high leverage treat it as capital efficiency — smaller collateral for the same position, with risk still sized by stop distance and volatility. Used as position-size fuel instead, it converts small moves into account-level events.
04
Margin requirements can rise around scheduled events, weekends and expiries. Draft policy is to announce scheduled margin changes in advance in the platform and status page rather than move them silently.

Answers about how margin is calculated, enforced and changed.
Two effects, and only the first is the reassuring one. For an identical position size, leverage changes required margin and not market risk. But higher leverage lets you open a much larger position on the same deposit — and that larger position risks proportionally more of your capital and reaches the stop-out level on a smaller adverse move. In practice, higher leverage raises risk for most traders.
