I agree that high leverage means high risks,if you don't have enough knowledge and skills.

leverage really a high risk ratio chapter in Forex trading , if you haven't most powerful analyzing money management then it could be dangerous.

In my opinion, this is a good opportunity to earn money, but with the risk it is worth being careful.

in fact, the risk in the transaction can be easily controlled by yourself, and yet it is better to minimize it

Are high and low leverage two sides of the same coin? I have started fresh in forex and not able to make a right judgment for a good leverage.

Not sure how correct it is to say there are high risks with high leverage.

Recommendations needed from experience holders.

Of course! What’s the use case of high trading leverage? The answer is: high trading lots! And as you know, high trading lot is always dangerous & risky!

Leverage can make or break you. I've always heard it referred to as a double-edged sword, which I'm sure has been mentioned here already. For beginners, I think the risk factor of blowing your account thanks to high leverage is even more so. I've even seen surveys where many professional traders say they stick to a leverage of around 1:100. That being said, I still think it's great to be offered the option to use high leverage, but you have to decide if it's right for you.

As it’s a big step, don’t let it go bust with your mistakes. Once an investment goes bust, it not only causes his capital to lose but also discourages him.

Always pay attention to the types of accounts at brokers.
You can create several accounts with leverage from 1:1 to 1:500 and trade any way you want.
