What Do You Think About the 1:50 Leverage Limit for Russian Traders?

Recommended Posts

It is indeed not fair, since the regulatory institutions pose this regualtions without and concern of the opinion of the traders. I believe that we as traders need to receive more empowerment to exercise our opinion, instead of taking everything for granted. I found out this interesting article, which discuss the case and even presents some survey of CRFIN: Russian traders not satisfied with 1:50 leverage limitAtoZ Forex

Our counterparts in rus, etc. are getting hosed in many ways these days in the curr wars... hey - what goes around, comes around ...

 

Btw - For the idiots (in any ‘jurisdiction’) who find 1:50 ++ leverage is not 'enough'

They surely, do get hosed in many ways. Although, I do no want to say that they are deserving this. Also, the 1:50 leverage is enough for me personally, however the majority traders do not comply with this. Haha, serve them Ultra-coin for breakfast.

we all know the answer, same happen with US regulation long time ago. many retail trader will disappointed, and most upper traders doesn't bother.

this could be spread across other EU country, we may had similar leverage for all brokers globally.. not much we can do about it, real trader surely adapt at any market circumstances, including lower leverage.

Furthermore i do think that the maximum Leverage should be 1:50 just like its 1:4 with the equities brokers in the US. Having a big leverage makes a trader take heavy risks. I know risk can be controlled bt in a fast moving market anyone can get that big knock back cause of this high leverage.

Thanks, Prax and Ammeo, for you view on the positive side of the russian leverage limit. I surely agree that it would reduce the risks for traders, but eventually they take away the other possibilities. It's in the best interest of the larger parties and as little men we are not able to surge against it. Adaptation is indeed here the keyword, real traders keep their spirits high!

1:50 leverage is still huge and if you are using more than that its more like playing rather than trading.

 

I think for trading 1:10 is more than enough. Limiting leverage to 1:50 max should keep most beginners from loosing money very fast.

    • In Italy, I saw many of our brothers from different parts of Africa, sleeping and living in the park, the weather was very cold and its obvious that they were looked down upon. It made me want to cry and several questions overwhelmed my heart.   Is it not better to remain in Africa than to be homeless in this freezing cold weather?   I wish I have all the money in the world to rescue them...   Is this the reason why our skin color is looked down upon?   Do our government officials see this sight when they also travel outside of the country...does it hurt them or pain them like it pained me?

    • Date: 28th March 2025.   Market Selloff Deepens as Tariff Concerns Weigh on Investors     Global stock markets extended their losing streak for a third day as concerns over looming US tariffs and an escalating trade war dampened investor sentiment. The flight to safety saw gold prices surge to a record high, underscoring growing risk aversion. Stock Selloff Intensifies The MSCI World Index recorded its longest losing streak in a month, while Asian equities saw their sharpest decline since late February. US and European stock futures also signalled potential weakness, while cryptocurrency markets retreated and bond yields edged lower. Investors are scaling back their exposure ahead of President Donald Trump’s expected announcement of ‘reciprocal tariffs’ on April 2. His latest move to impose a 25% levy on all foreign-made automobiles has sparked fresh concerns over inflation and economic growth, prompting traders to reassess their strategies. Investor Strategies Shift Market experts are adjusting their portfolios in anticipation of heightened volatility. ‘It’s impossible to predict Trump’s next move,’ said Xin-Yao Ng of Aberdeen Investments. ‘Our focus is on companies that are less vulnerable to tariff policies while taking advantage of market dips to find value opportunities.’ Yield Curve Signals Economic Concerns In the bond market, the spread between 30-year and 5-year US Treasury yields widened to its highest level since early 2022. Investors are bracing for potential Federal Reserve rate cuts if economic growth slows further. Long-term Treasury yields hit a one-month peak as inflation risks tied to tariffs spurred demand for higher-yielding assets. Boston Fed President Susan Collins noted that while tariffs may contribute to short-term price increases, their long-term effects remain uncertain. Gold Hits Record High as Safe-Haven Demand Rises Amid market turbulence, gold prices soared 0.7% on Friday, reaching an all-time high of $3,077.60 per ounce. Major banks have raised their price targets for the precious metal, with Goldman Sachs now forecasting gold to hit $3,300 per ounce by year-end. Looking Ahead As investors digest economic data showing US growth acceleration in Q4, attention will turn to Friday’s release of the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index—the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation measure. This data will be critical in shaping expectations for future Fed policy moves. With markets on edge and trade tensions escalating, investors will closely monitor upcoming developments, particularly Trump’s tariff announcement next week, which could further dictate market direction.   Always trade with strict risk management.
