ShahRay Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 Hi, I'm new to Forex Trading. Want to start trading but stuck between 2 brokers. XM and JustMarkets. I was told I the bigger the leverage, the better for beginners. I'm inclining towards JustMarket due to the 1:3000 leverage but a friend told me it's not a reliable broker. Seniors please advice. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
⭐ Azazel Posted October 19 Report Share Posted October 19 (edited) The greater the leverage, the faster you will burn through your account, especially for those just starting out. For those just starting out and trading, it is important to gain experience and especially to have a statistically profitable strategy, so it pays to trade in simulation (or paper trading) at first, but avoid leverage because you risk burning your account quickly. Even successful traders such as Mark Minervini, Oliver Kell, Kristjan Qullamaggie (see video below), etc.., burned their accounts in the beginning, precisely because experience is needed and trading successfully is not easy. P.S: Your friend advised you well, that Broker that allows 1:3000 leverage is not a reliable Broker, in fact in Europe with CFDs a maximum leverage of 1:30 is allowed.
