Positions & Leverage

Leverage in Supertrade allows traders to manage larger positions while using a smaller capital base. It can accelerate growth, but also increases risk. To succeed, you must align your position size with the drawdown rules and overall risk management requirements.

Available Leverage

Supertrade offers different leverage levels depending on the account type and asset class:

  • Forex: up to 1:200 in Challenge accounts and up to 1:100 in Live and Instant Funding accounts.

  • Metals, Oil, Indices: up to 1:100 in Challenge accounts and up to 1:50 in Live and Instant Funding accounts.

  • Cryptocurrencies: up to 1:4 in Challenge accounts and up to 1:2 in Live and Instant Funding accounts.

Leverage for Live and Instant Funding accounts is set at half the Challenge level to ensure more stable performance and effective risk management.

Position Sizing Rules

  • Avoid oversized trades that can consume a large share of margin.

  • Use consistent lot sizes that match your trading strategy and risk per trade.

  • Effective margin use should stay under 2% of the account size per position.

Leverage is a powerful tool, but discipline is mandatory. Always size your positions with respect to Supertrade’s risk rules and your personal strategy. Correct use of leverage helps protect your capital and build sustainable trading results.
