forex leverage
According to the CFTC, "leverage in retail forex customer accounts would be subject to a 10-to-1
limitation," which means 10:1 leverage would be the maximum amount allowed for forex traders in
the
U.S.
Leave leverage as it is. At the moment it is one of the few opportunities available to those of us with
just a little money. Just because one can have a leverage of 100:1, does not mean one has to use it. I
usually trade with a leverage of 50:1, but sometimes even 10:1 or 5:1. Other factors are considered
besides leverage, such as money management and risk.
