Calculate effective leverage

Trading tips

Effective vs offered leverage

Your broker may offer 1:500, but what matters is your effective leverageβ€”total position value Γ· equity. Keep it under 10:1.

Leverage amplifies both ways

A 1% move in US30 at 100:1 leverage is a 100% account swing. Always calculate effective leverage before adding positions.

Reduce during news events

Before FOMC, CPI, or NFP releases, reduce your effective leverage. US30 can move 100+ points in seconds during these events.

Use leverage to size, not to gamble

Leverage should let you take properly-sized positions with less capital, not to take oversized positions for bigger gains.
