@voicebissa So you’re saying that if I have a $1,000 account balance and set the stop loss at 10 pips, I can use 10:1 leverage with the 0.10 lots position size?

I prefer applying small amounts of leverage to each of my trades as it leaves more room for trades with a wider stop loss to avoid a higher loss of capital. Remember that a highly leveraged trade can deplete your account quickly if it goes against you.

If anyone has found a way to beat the market then you can even use 10000x leverage. If you haven't then you will loose your money...
Test yourself open a demo account out of 30 trades if you don't loose. Then use the highest leverage...

You don’t have to be afraid of using leverage. Use trailing stops to reduce your losses when a trade goes in the wrong direction. Just see to it that your broker allows using different stops. And this is not the only advantage of these stops that I see. It so much reduces the emotion of trading and surely results in better trading decision-making.

Higher leverage is very risky but how much leverage I will use usually depends on the investment. If I want to select low leverage with a small deposit, it will be very difficult for me. I have to select leverage with a good deposit.
Wouldn’t higher leverage with a higher deposit entail an even higher risk :)
