Forex — leverage by account equity

Forex leverage is tiered by your account equity. The more capital on the account, the lower the maximum leverage — a standard risk guardrail.

Account equity	Maximum leverage
Up to $999	1:3000
$1,000 – $2,999	1:2000
$3,000 – $4,999	1:1000
$5,000 – $19,999	1:500
$20,000 – $49,999	1:200
$50,000 – $99,999	1:100
Above $100,000	1:50

Other asset classes

Metals, indices, commodities, shares and crypto use fixed leverage across all equity levels.

Asset class	Leverage
Metals, Indices, Commodities	1:100
Shares (US, DE, RU)	1:10
Shares (Asia)	1:1
Crypto (BTCUSD, ETHUSD)	1:10
Crypto (other)	1:100

Weekend leverage

Forex leverage is reduced to 1:500 over the weekend as a risk-management measure. The weekend cap activates one hour before Friday's market close and lifts at the start of the Monday session at 01:00 EET.

Why Forex leverage tapers at higher equity

Very high leverage is useful when you're trading small size — it lets a $100 account actually move the needle on a trade. At five and six figure balances, the same leverage creates risk that almost nobody can manage in practice. Tiered leverage on Forex is the industry-standard way to keep execution safe for everyone on the same order book. Non-Forex asset classes (metals, indices, commodities, shares, crypto) use fixed leverage across all equity levels.

A fair warning

High leverage cuts both ways. A 1:1000 account can double in an afternoon — and it can also go to zero in thirty seconds if the market turns. Please only deploy leverage you'd be comfortable losing, and only on strategies you've proven on lower leverage first.
