What is Leverage?
Leverage is the main feature of Derivatives trading and a powerful tool available to traders. You can use leverage to profit from relatively small price movements, to "leverage" your portfolio for greater exposure, or to put your capital to good use.
How does leverage work?
Leverage uses a deposit (also known as margin) to provide you with
higher exposure to the underlying asset.
Essentially, you pay a
fraction of the full transaction value, and your provider lends you the rest.
Before you start trading, you need to prepare an initial margin, which is the margin required to open a position. When the number of positions remains unchanged, the greater the leverage used, the less the used margin occupied by each order, and the relatively increased available margin can counteract market risks.
If you trade at a loss, you may receive a margin call, where more funds need to be injected to maintain the open order. This extra money is called the maintenance margin.
