Will you still trade if If there is no leverage in Forex ?

[Peter Brandley]

Assuming that is no opportunity of using leverage in Forex meaning you can only trade with amount you've in your account and no leverage to increase your trade volume will you still trade Forex considering the risk yet no leverage to give big profit on small investment

I would still trade Forex even without leverage. But, I am sure, many newbie traders would be turned off by the lack of leverage.

There must be some difference on your balance side when you trade without leverage. I am sure that you did not earn the highest profit as you earned with leverage. What is the highest profit & loss you get when trading without leverage ?

the answer is absolutely not. Since currencies are traded in pips, as one is 1:10,000, you need to have the ability to for leverage otherwise you would need huge amounts of money and your return on investment (ROI) would not worth the risk.

Maybe, depends on how much I have to burn..and as you mentioned without leverage, you're going to need cash by the ton to make a trade..

Without leverage you will need lots of capital. Then the ROI will not be as high as 20% monthly.

Yes it require a lot of money to trade without leverage but rarely it's very difficult. Moves are too small.
It would only be institutional players without leverage.
