๐๐ฅ What is Leverage in Crypto Trading? Is High Leverage REALLY Safe? ๐ฃ๐
Letโs break down one of the most powerful โ and dangerous โ tools in crypto trading: Leverage.
๐ What is Leverage?
Leverage means borrowing funds to increase the size of your trade. It allows you to open a bigger position with a smaller amount of capital.
โก๏ธ Example:
If you have $100 and use 10x leverage, you can trade a position worth $1,000.
Sounds cool, right? ๐
But wait...
โ ๏ธ How Does Leverage Work?
More Leverage = Bigger Potential Gains ๐ฐ
More Leverage = Bigger Risk of Liquidation ๐
๐ Even a small price move against your position can wipe out your capital completely when using high leverage.
๐ How Much Leverage is Safe?
Thereโs no one-size-fits-all, but hereโs a general guide:
๐ง Experience โ Safer Leverage
Beginner ๐ถ 1x โ 3x
Intermediate ๐งโ๐ป 3x โ 10x
Pro Trader ๐ผ 10x โ 20x
๐ซ Over 20x HIGH RISK ZONE โ ๏ธ
๐ Note: Some platforms offer up to 100x leverage โ but thatโs like driving a Ferrari with no brakes. ๐๏ธ๐จ๐ฅ
๐ Pro Tips for Safe Leverage Use

โ Donโt risk more than 1-2% of your total capital
