Enter your account balance and position size in units to see an approximate leverage ratio (1:X), plus a simple view of exposure. Use it to understand how much market size you control relative to equity—always confirm margin and leverage with your broker.
Leverage lets you control a larger position than your cash balance alone would allow. Your broker effectively lends notional exposure against a smaller amount of margin. A ratio like 1:10 means roughly ten dollars of exposure for each dollar of margin used, depending on how margin is calculated on your account.
We divide your trade size in units by your account balance and round to a whole number, then show it as 1:X (for example, 100,000 units on a $10,000 balance → 1:10). This is a simplified educational view; your platform may use live prices, contract specs, and policy-specific margin rules.
Higher leverage magnifies both gains and losses. Small adverse moves can erode equity quickly and trigger margin calls or liquidations. Many traders use lower effective leverage and strict risk limits to stay in control.
There is no one-size-fits-all answer—it depends on experience, strategy, and risk tolerance. Regulators and educators often suggest using only a fraction of the maximum leverage available and sizing each trade so a normal stop-out does not threaten the whole account.
