How to read FxPro leverage in Malaysia

Leverage is an entity + product number, not a country slogan. Marketing “up to 1:500” only applies if your signup entity and instrument class actually allow it.

Malaysian residents usually onboard via an international entity, not SC Malaysia. Retail caps follow that entity - not a local SC leverage brochure.

Margin math (plain language)

Higher leverage reduces the margin locked for a lot size. It does not shrink the cash loss when price moves against you. A 1% move on a oversized position can still wipe a small Wallet fast. Practice the same lot size on demo before going live.

Stop-out and margin call

If equity falls below maintenance margin, the platform can close positions at market. Exact stop-out levels differ by entity and account type - we do not invent a single percentage for every desk. Read the specs shown for your live account.

Leverage vs costs

Changing leverage does not rewrite spreads or commission. Cost stack lives on SC context · spreads · swap-free.
