Borrowing funds to increase your trading position beyond what your capital alone would allow.
Definition
Borrowing funds to increase your trading position beyond what your capital alone would allow. Trading with 10x leverage means a 1% price move gives you a 10% gain or loss. While it amplifies profits, it also amplifies losses and can lead to liquidation if the market moves against you.
