How Leverage Works
By trading with leverage, you don’t have to deposit the full amount. You can trade the financial instrument by only depositing a certain amount of money as margin based on the specific leverage ratio.
How to Trade
Leveraged contract provides the opportunity to profit by going long or short.
Potential Profit by going long or short
You think gold price may rise, so you buy gold leveraged contract. If the market price meets your expectation, you may profit from the price rising. This process is called 'going long'.
On the contrary, you think gold price may fall, so you sell gold leveraged contract. If the market price meets your expectation, you may profit from the price falling. This process is called 'going short'.
