Help CenterWhat Is Dynamic Leverage?
Dynamic leverage is a risk management system where leverage automatically adjusts based on your trading exposure and open position volume.
This means that while your account may support higher leverage levels, the available leverage can progressively reduce as larger trade sizes or higher overall exposure are opened.
How Does Dynamic Leverage Work?
Smaller trading exposure may benefit from higher leverage, allowing lower margin requirements. However, as exposure increases, leverage may automatically decrease to help manage trading risk and market volatility.
Example:
- Smaller positions may receive leverage up to 1:1000
- As total exposure increases, leverage may reduce progressively to lower levels such as 1:500, 1:200, or lower depending on exposure and market conditions
This results in higher margin requirements for larger positions.
Why Is Dynamic Leverage Used?
Dynamic leverage helps:
- Manage overall trading risk
- Protect accounts during volatile market conditions
- Reduce excessive exposure
- Support stable trading conditions across the platform
Dynamic leverage automatically adjusts based on your trading exposure and the asset class being traded. As exposure increases, maximum leverage will reduce and margin requirements will increase.
