[Joy Bahadur]

Basically, as a beginner,  I always like to trade in a small leverage for avoiding risk. but, when I can predict the real faction of this market with certainly then I take 1:400 leverage that always make sure my trading broker MXTrade. but, in my demo trading I took high leverage to see the performance how it works.

As a beginner, trading with very low leverage is a wise move because it will enable you to last longer in the forex market. Perhaps, till such a time you will be able to trade profitably with consistent profits. Then you may consider increasing your leverage.

I have seen according to my trading experience by and large traders in particularly the newcomers consider high leverage at many risks. But I don’t consider it at all, if there is any risks it is completely with non-sense planning and zero risk management policy, nothing to do with high leverage at all. in my trading career, for avoiding risk I always use 1:100 leverage in spite of having up to leverage 1:500 that always ensures my trading platform LQDFX. But in my demo trading I took high leverage to see the performance how it works.
