What is Leverage?

Leverage is a powerful tool for traders to help you expand your exposure to financial markets and maximize capital when you invest less.

Principle of Leverage Trading

Through leverage, you can borrow a loan from the dealer, significantly reducing the amount of capital you need to invest in a transaction.

Before you start trading, you need to prepare an initial margin, which is the deposit required when opening a position. When the number of positions remains the same, the greater the leverage used, the less the used margin occupied by each exchange, and the free margin increases, helping you to compete against greater risks.

If your trade starts to lose money, you will receive a margin call and you need to inject more funds to maintain the opening position. These additional funds are called maintenance margin.

Leverage Ratio and Margin Trading

Leverage Ratio

is an indicator that measures the ratio of trading exposure to margin requirements, depending on the market you are trading, trading instruments, and position size.

Leverage Trading
Leverage Ratio 1 : 1 200 : 1 400 : 1 500 : 1
Investment Amount 1,000 1,000 1,000 1,000
Position Size 1,000 200,000 400,000 500,000

In non-leveraged trading, 1 yuan can only buy assets equivalent to 1 yuan, while in leveraged investing, 1 yuan can buy assets worth more than 1 yuan. For instance, when the leverage ratio is 200 times, you can buy assets worth 200 yuan for 1 yuan, and so on, and your investment income or loss will expand with that ratio.

For instance: If you choose to trade with an exposure size of USD100,000 with 200 times leverage in Easy Trading Online, you only need to invest 500 yuan in margin to open a position.

The calculation is as follow: US$100,000 * (1/200) = US$500

On Easy Trading Online’s MT4 and MT5 platforms, you can determine the maximum leverage available by viewing the margin ratio of each trading symbol.

For instance: If the margin ratio of a trading symbol is 2%, it means that you can use up to 50 times leverage (1/0.02=50).
