When you first create your MT5 account, one of the fields you are required to fill up is the leverage. We have the following range of leverages for you to choose from:
Range of Leverages | Margin Percentage |
---|---|
1:25 | 4 % |
1:50 | 2 % |
1:75 | 1.33 % |
1:100 | 1 % |
1:150 | 0.67 % |
1:200 | 0.5 % |
The initial margin is the minimum amount you’ll need to put up to open a position. It is also sometimes called the deposit margin, or just the deposit.
The maintenance margin is the extra money that we might need to request from you if your position moves against you. Its purpose is to ensure you have enough funds in your account to cover the present value of the position at all times – covering any running losses.
At the CorefxLiquidity, we offer a competitive range of leverage and margins across our full range of markets. Upon account opening, you will be prompted to select the leverage you’d like to trade on. Do bear in mind that the higher the leverage, the greater your profits and losses (and ultimately risk) will be magnified. Select the leverage that is best suited for your risk appetite.
