Risk Warning

There is a level of danger that comes with trading on the financial markets. As sophisticated instruments, foreign exchange, futures, CFDs, and other financial contracts are typically traded using margin, which significantly increases the inherent risks involved. You can use the leverage to your benefit or detriment. Therefore, you should consider carefully whether or not this sort of investment activity is right for you.

Leverage
