There is no particular leverage that can be recommended. You must choose the right leverage ratio in accordance with your trading requirements.

a new Forex trader should not use the leverage , because it could be dangerous . actually most of the beginners dont know its possible to trade with no leverage.

leverage has nothing to do with amount of money you lose per trade.as said before.i have 500 -1 leverage normally. i tried 20-1 leverage with small account and could only open 2 trades at a time at most.as most of account was taken up in margin call..16 times stop loss in fact.leverage could possibly limit trading in some cases.

Leverage giving advantage and disadvantage too, the advantage leverage is we can open order with smallest margin requirement than actual contract size, in simple analogy, we can buy the good with value 10000 only wth money 1000, it will make a double profit if-then price arises, but losing money if price decline.

Leverage does not matter. What's important is risk management. If you know how much you risk on every trade, the leverage won't matter. I trade for a prop firm and they even use 1:200. Other firms have 1:100. Even if you use 1:30 or 1:3000, you will have the same amount of risk on each trade. Leverage matters if you are trading multiple positions at the same time. Lower leverage will allow few trades open because it will use more margin % while higher leverage allows you to open more positions.
Trading is a marathon, not a sprint.

Well, in my opinion, European tightening of the leverage to 1:30 is the height of stupidity, yes, you will not lose much, but you will not earn either.
For me personally, the most comfortable leverage is 1:200
