Even though by and large traders in particularly the newcomers consider high leverage at much risk, but I don’t consider it at all. if there is any risk it is completely with non-sense planning and zero risk management policy , nothing to do with high leverage at all. For avoiding risk, I always use 1:100 leverage in spite of having up to leverage 1:500 that always ensures my trading broker LQDFX. But in my demo trading I always use high leverage to see the performance how it works. So, before trading with high leverage we the traders first of all have to know how to manage risk.
