Hi everyone! I used Trading212 last year. But after some problems I stopped trading. Now I want to start trading with its software, but I cannot find the place of leverage for each trade. Also, all of the trades are based on units while I could trade with the amount instead. How can I change the un…

On mobile, scroll down all the way under the chart and company info. You’ll see “instrument details” I think it’s called.

Only CFDs have leverage. ISA/Invest doesn’t have leverage.

There is an instrument details, but I cannot change it!! It is a fixed leverage !!

I know, but I cannot find the place of leverage neither in mobile app nor in the desktop app!!

Not aware that you can change leverage on retail account, it is fixed per instrument type. As far as I understood. [Screenshot_20200708-074909_Trading 212] only option is to have professional account to get access to higher leverage. But it is probably fixed leverage as well.

But you c…

[image] Martin: If the stock doubles at value or falls to zero, your end profit/loss will be the same regardless the leverage used. How does leverage work? I was under the impression (never used it before) that a 1:10 leverage will allow you to use 10x of your capital for a trade… so your end…

No Martin was right, he is basically saying that it is the quantity of the position that matters not the leverage. A higher leverage just allows you to take a larger position as there is a lower margin requirement. Being able to lower the leverage wouldn’t give you any real advantage as you could ju…
