The volatility is low on forex brokers allow you to use leverage.



Leverage:

The leverage allows the trader to make trades more important than if it used only its initial margin deposit. The broker offers its customer a margin greater than the trader's margin deposit.

If the trader has opened an account with a deposit of 10,000 euros (10 k), and that the broker provides the trader a leverage of 50, then the trader has a margin of EUR 500 000 (500 k). This leverage allows the trader to transact a higher amount. Indeed, the volatility on the foreign exchange market is relatively low, brokers are available to traders leverage.

Without leverage, the trade up would be 10 000 (10k), so with a long position of EUR 10 000 (10k) on the eur / usd at 1.2800 (1.2800 Ask - Bid 1.2797), a change of 103 pips that will take the course at 1.2900 (1.2903 Ask - Bid 12900) would earn the trader $ 100 ($ 1 = 10k/trade / pip).

With a leverage of 50, if the trader goes up purchasing a transaction on the eur / usd 500 000 (500 k) 1.2800 (1.2800 Ask - Bid 1.2797), a change of 103 pips who take her course to 1.2900 (Ask 1.2903 - 1.2900 Bid) would earn the trader $ 5000 (500k/trade = 50 $ / pip).



The trader is of course not obliged to use the maximum leverage offered by his broker! It is the trader to manage risk as leverage can increase its earnings in case of winning trades but also to increase its loss in case of losing trades. So the trader to choose the size of his positions depending on the risks it wishes to take on his portfolio.

EUR 2 500 EUR 125 000 ---------- ----------------- --------------- 125K ----- 12.5 $ / pip

EUR 5 000 EUR 250 000 ---------- ----------------- --------------- 250K ----- 25 $ / pip
