Which markets can I trade, and with what leverage?

Forex, metals, indices, commodities and crypto CFDs, with the leverage for each asset by product and phase, from 1:100 forex on a 2-Step evaluation to 1:2 on crypto.

At a glance

You trade CFDs on forex, metals, indices, commodities and crypto. All trading at EverFunded is simulated; see How simulated trading works at EverFunded. Leverage depends on the product and the asset, and forex is the only asset whose leverage differs between accounts.

Forex leverage, by your account and phase:

When this applies

  • Leverage sets how much margin a position uses. At 1:30, a position uses margin equal to one-thirtieth of its size. It does not change your account's loss limits, which are fixed for your product. See What is drawdown, and how do the Max Daily Loss and Max Loss work?.

  • Forex leverage on 2-Step changes when you are funded. It is 1:100 during the 2-Step evaluation and 1:50 once the account is funded.

  • Crypto that trades 24/7 is not closed for the weekend. On funded 1-Step, Flash and Instant accounts, positions are closed at the platform's Friday close before each weekend, and 30 minutes before each symbol's holiday close, but crypto symbols that genuinely trade 24/7 are exempt and stay open. See Holding positions overnight and over the weekend.

  • Higher leverage is not for sale. No add-on raises leverage, so the limits are the same for everyone on the same account.

  • There is no separate crypto account. Crypto CFDs are traded inside the standard accounts, on your trading platform. See Which trading platform do EverFunded accounts use?.

Example: margin on a $30,000 position

Leverage

Margin used

1:100

$300

1:50

$600

1:30

$1,000

1:10

$3,000

1:2

$15,000

  • 2-Step trader moving from evaluation to funded. The same $30,000 forex position used $300 of margin at 1:100 and uses $600 at 1:50. The position's size and its risk are the same; only the margin changes.

  • 1-Step trader. Using 1:30 on forex does not change the 1-Step Max Daily Loss of 3%. A losing position counts against that limit whatever leverage it used.

Before you rely on a market

  • This article names asset classes, not every symbol. Symbols, spreads and contract details are shown on your trading platform once you log in. Simulated prices, spreads and execution may differ from a live market (Terms clause 6.2). If your strategy depends on one instrument, ask us before you buy.

  • Metals and commodities other than gold, silver and oil. Their leverage is not listed here. Check the contract details on your platform or ask us.

  • Leverage is a maximum, not a suggestion. Position size decides how fast a trade moves toward a loss limit.

  • Crypto uses a lot of margin. At 1:2, a crypto position ties up half its size.

If the leverage shown does not match

If the leverage shown on your account does not match the table for your product:

  1. Note the account number, your product and stage (evaluation or funded), the instrument and the leverage shown. A screenshot with no password visible helps.

  2. Message us in the chat and ask for a person to check the account.

  3. Never send your trading password or a login code.
