Understanding Cryptocurrency Leverage
Updated over 3 months ago

Cryptocurrency trading in our Client Portal features a dynamic leverage adjustment mechanism designed to manage risk effectively. This system automatically adjusts the available leverage based on your trading volume. Here's what you need to know:

How Does It Work?
As your trading volume increases, the available leverage typically decreases. This inverse relationship helps balance potential profits with risk management for both traders and our platform.

Cryptocurrency-Specific Leverage Scales

We've categorized cryptocurrency pairs into three groups, each with its own leverage scale:

1. BTC Pairs (BTCAUD, BTCEUR, BTCGBP, BTCUSD)
• 0-2 lots: 1:20 leverage
• 2-10 lots: 1:10 leverage
• >10 lots: 1:5 leverage

2. Major Altcoins (e.g., BNBUSD, ETHUSD, XRPUSD, ADAUSD)
• 0-20 lots: 1:20 leverage
• 20-200 lots: 1:10 leverage
• >200 lots: 1:5 leverage

3. Other Altcoins (e.g., BCHUSD, LTCUSD, UNIUSD)
• 0-200 lots: 1:10 leverage
• >200 lots: 1:5 leverage

Important Considerations
• Always check the current leverage before placing a trade, as it may change based on your trading volume.
• This dynamic leverage system aids in risk management but may affect potential profits or losses.
• If you have any questions about how this system works, our customer support team is here to help.

Remember, different cryptocurrency pairs are grouped into categories with similar leverage scales. This grouping reflects the market dynamics and risk profiles of various cryptocurrencies.
