No, at FXON, leverage is automatically adjusted based on your equity, not on your balance.
Once your equity reaches a certain threshold, the leverage for major and minor forex pairs, as well as metal CFDs, will be automatically reduced to help manage your risk. For example, if your equity exceeds $7,000/€6,000/¥1,000,000, the maximum leverage will decrease from 1,000x to 500x.
If you have multiple accounts, leverage will be set individually for each one. The new leverage will also apply to open positions to effectively manage risk. Please refer to the table below for maximum leverage by equity.

The maximum leverage for exotic pairs is 50x, meaning it does not vary based on your equity. Other CFDs, such as energies and indices, have a fixed leverage.
