Can I leverage my crypto trading position as much as I want?

Asked 3 years ago

Hi guys, I trade crypto on BitMEX and started delving into margin trading. I've also started experimenting with leveraging, along with the risks and timeframe. I have a position that has been going really well so far, and I wonder whether there is a limit to how many times I can leverage it.

You cannot leverage your crypto infintely - or any asset class for that matter. Most brokers have their leverage maxed out at 50x or 100x for cryptocurrencies, as they're quite a volatile asset class. Forex brokers, on the other hand, can have leverage of up to 500x, or in some cases, 1,000x.
