Leverage

Controlling a larger notional position than your posted margin. Amplifies both gains and losses.

10× leverage means a ~10% adverse move (ignoring fees and funding) can wipe an isolated margin position near maintenance. Max available leverage is a product feature, not a recommendation.

Size positions from risk amount and stop distance first, then see what leverage that implies — not the other way around.
