Leverage enhances buying power by giving strategy providers the ability to trade large volumes with a smaller amount of funds. It is expressed as a ratio of their own funds to borrowed funds, i.e 1:50, 1:100, 1:200 etc.
The leverage rate is set by a strategy provider when they create the strategy, though it is possible to change this leverage rate at a later stage by changing the trading account’s settings in the ‘My Accounts’ area of the Exness Personal Area.
When using the Exness Terminal on desktop or mobile devices, the leverage applicable for the instrument will be displayed in the new order form. This feature also considers any fixed leverage or high margin requirements (HMR) that may apply when the order is placed.
Additionally, the leverage set on the account will be visible in the account info section.
Important: For clients registered with Exness Limited Jordan Ltd:
- The maximum available leverage is 1:100.
- Cryptocurrencies are not available.
- Portfolio Management and Social Trading are not available.

When a strategy provider trades, they can sometimes use a lower leverage rate due to fixed margin requirements. Fixed margin requirements exist for some instruments, such as the Exotic and Crypto instrument groups, regardless of the level of leverage used.
