⚠️ The Brutal Truth About Leverage Trading – READ BEFORE YOU TRADE ⚠️
Leverage can make you rich or liquidate you in seconds.
🔹 1. Leverage = Tool, Not Magic
It doesn’t predict the market.
It only amplifies the result of your decisions.
Good call = big gain 💰
Bad call = instant loss 💀
🔹 2. Low Timeframes = High Risk
Leverage is designed for scalping, not long-term trades.
Use it on 3min, 5min, 15min charts MAX.
You can’t hold a 20x trade for hours — volatility will eat you alive. 🕒⚡
🔹 3. Stop Loss is Non-Negotiable
No SL = Free pass to liquidation.
SL protects you from one bad move wiping your entire account.
Pro traders always use it — no ego.
🔹 4. Risk Management > Entry Point
Even a perfect entry with poor risk = failure.
Never risk more than 1–2% per trade.
Leverage is not the problem. Your lot size is. 📉
🔹 5. Don’t Trade Emotions
Just made a winning trade?
Don’t let greed push you into overleveraging.
Lost a trade?
Don’t enter “just one more” revenge trade.
🚫 Emotions + leverage = 🔥Account burner.
🔹 6. Learn, Don’t Gamble
People think leverage is a shortcut to quick money.
Truth? It’s a shortcut to blowing your account… if you don’t study.
🔹 7. Choose Leverage Based on Skill
Beginners: Stick to 2x–3x
Intermediate: 5x–10x
Scalpers with real experience: 15x–25x
50x–100x? Leave that for demo accounts or YouTubers faking gains 🤷♂️
🔹 8. It’s NOT for Long-Term Holds
Using leverage on 4H, 1D, or swing trades?
Not smart. You’re paying fees, and price will always shake you out.
Leverage is for fast, controlled moves — not hope & pray HODLs.
⚔️ Bottom Line:
Leverage can multiply money...
Or multiply your mistakes.
Treat it with respect, or it will teach you a harsh lesson.
