As I trader, I generally seek for big leverage given that I have low investment in place. I am extremely fortunate that with OctaFX broker, I get great advantage due to their huge leverage up to 1.500, it really boost my low investment and keeps the risk factor down, so that increase the profit chance automatically and makes me feel very secure.Shitalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897997766931633186.post-26666101476621567582010-02-24T09:08:03.522-05:002010-02-24T09:08:03.522-05:00Thanks for explaining leverage.

I wonder what kind of pressure a banker is under to have this kind of leverage if everyone else is doing it. If your competitors are making phenomenal returns are you supposed to sit back and be conservative in your investments or are you under enormous pressure to throw the dice?<br /><br />Given these high leverage ratios did the bankers on Wall Street know that if their investments failed the government would bail them out? Or were bankers just completely insane take such high risks? Now we know that the banks were bailed out, but did the bankers know in advance that they would be bailed out if everything crashed?Tom Doughertynoreply@blogger.com
