Could you please enlighten me on a question that's been puzzling me? I'm curious about the trading capabilities with a specific budget. Given that I have $500 at hand, how many lots would I be able to trade with? I'm trying to understand the leverage involved and the potential risks and rewards associated with different lot sizes. Could you provide me with a breakdown or an estimate based on standard practices in the market? Thank you for your assistance in clarifying this matter.

Cryptocurrency investing requires careful consideration of risk and leverage. With a portfolio of $500, one must assess the tolerable risk level, which in this case is set at 2% of the account value. Leverage, a powerful tool in amplifying trading potential, must also be taken into account.

Leverage of 1:100 means that for every $1 invested, one can control $100 worth of assets. This allows investors to magnify their profits but also multiplies potential losses. Therefore, managing risk becomes crucial when using leverage.

For traders with larger portfolios, such as a $1000 account, the calculation process remains the same. They would multiply their account balance by the acceptable risk percentage, divide by the contract size, and then multiply by the leverage factor to determine the maximum tradable lot size.

To calculate the maximum tradable amount, we multiply the acceptable risk ($500 * 0.02) by the leverage factor divided by the contract size. In this case, the contract size is assumed to be 100,000 units.
