Leverage
For Simple mode
What is leverage?
Leverage enables you to control a larger position size than your actual wallet balance. For instance, with 5× leverage, a $1,000 margin allows you to open a $5,000 position. While this can magnify profits, it also increases potential losses.
Adjusting your leverage
You can manually set your leverage before opening a position, ranging from 1× up to 1001×, depending on the specific market.
Increasing leverage: Boosts your position size without additional margin but brings the liquidation price closer to your entry point.
Decreasing leverage: Reduces your position size and moves the liquidation price further from your entry, lowering risk.

Leverage example
Suppose you have $100 in your wallet and open a long BTC position at $20,000 using 10× leverage. Your position size becomes $1,000. If BTC’s price increases by 5% to $21,000, your profit is $50, yielding a 50% return on your $100 margin. By contrast, a 5% price drop would result in a 50% loss.
