[David Marco]

I think every new trader should use 1:50 as their leverage.

Forex trading offers high leverage by which a trader can oversee greater trade with little capital. If you are a position trader it is more clever to utilize low leverage like 50:1 or 100:1. Without a doubt leverage winds up being more perilous when we utilize huge lot in connection to the capital.

If you are a new trader, I recommend low leverage like 1:100.

I think not using stop loss is a foolishness because it takes away more dollars from a trader and I experienced it several times in my trading journey.

What leverage will you advice a newbie trader to use? Do you think that 1:1000 is too high for inexperienced traders to use. Because i have been adviced against using high leverege. But again i thought if broker have provided it why wont i use it. What do you think.

For newbie traders, I recommend starting with lower leverage, like 1:10 or 1:20. High leverage, such as 1:1000, can lead to significant losses quickly, especially with limited experience. Brokers offer high leverage, but it doesn’t mean it’s safe—it's crucial to manage risk and build experience gradually.

the safe laverage for me is 1:100 because this laverage possible to make me trading with 1 cent smallest value. I don't know how much the smallest value per order if choose 1:1000 because I never choose it previously. but can be sure that the smallest lot will be very high. maybe its not a big problem to choose 1:1000 laverage if you have high capital to deposited but since your status only newbie, 1:1000 laverage could be a real problem to you.

With 1:1000 leverage, the smallest lot size would be much higher, increasing risk significantly, especially for a beginner. A lower leverage like 1:100 provides safer risk management.

For a beginner, lower leverage like 1:50 or 1:100 is much safer. High leverage such as 1:1000 magnifies both profits and losses, and even small price moves can wipe out your account. Brokers offer it for flexibility, not as a recommendation. Start small, focus on risk management, and increase leverage only when you gain consistent experience and control.

Many new traders think high leverage means big profit. But they forget it also means big loss. The big one gave me stress. The small one gave me control. So I stay with 1:100.

These new traders being unaware of the market conditions should keep the leverage low in start since high leverages claim higher damages as well.
