Rules
Dynamic Leverage
We use a dynamic leverage system to manage concentration risk and optimise our collateral with brokers without imposing prohibitive margin requirements. Please familiarise yourself with the rules.
Dynamic leverage settings
PipFarm dynamically reduces leverage, i.e. increases margin requirements, as your net exposure to each trading instrument increases. The dynamic leverage settings are grouped by asset class but are applied per symbol. To learn more about dynamic leverage, please read our guide.
