Before answering this question, the editor of Bitcoin Circle will first talk to you about Bitcoin leverage. Leverage is a common financial trading system, that is, the margin system. Leverage not only magnifies the amount that investors can trade, but also increases the returns that investors can obtain. and the risks taken increased. After understanding Bitcoin leverage, let’s get back to the topic. What is the maximum Bitcoin leverage in 2021? Below, the editor of the currency circle will talk to you about the multiples of Bitcoin leverage based on this issue. I hope that through this article, investors can have a preliminary understanding of Bitcoin leverage.

## What is the maximum leverage of Bitcoin in 2021?

In 2021, the maximum leverage of Bitcoin is 100 times, and the minimum leverage of Bitcoin is 5 times. For example, the maximum leverage is 100 times. OKCoin currently provides 10 times or 20 times leverage for BTC contracts, and 10 times or 20 times leverage for LTC contracts, so Bitcoin has the highest leverage. It is determined based on the exchange chosen by the investor.

## How to safely use leverage to speculate in Bitcoin?

1. Use low-cost leverage tools

The cost of borrowing for currency speculation comes from the interest on borrowing, which is 8% for stock financing, 4.5% for real estate financing, and more than 10% for Bitcoin financing. Obviously, the cost of financing Bitcoin speculation and adding leverage is very high, so currency speculation should choose futures instruments that have no capital cost.

2. Time period for using leverage

The cost of borrowing money to speculate is directly proportional to the borrowing time. The longer the borrowing time, the higher the cost. The concept of self-defense is to hide and wait patiently. Therefore, using leverage with interest costs can easily cause panic due to the increasing interest. chaos. In February 2015, I lurked long in Litecoin futures and went through a 3-month shake-up and finally caught the market price of 55 yuan. If I use financing leverage, then I will be anxious about the daily increase in interest and give up the long position prematurely. Therefore, the concept of self-defense in currency speculation is more suitable for using futures leverage tools.

3. Treat leverage multiples reasonably

Can you really use a 20x leverage tool 20x? Nature has redundancy, and our bodies also have redundancy. When the Bitcoin block reached 600kb, everyone was already discussing the issue of expansion. Because the world we live in is an uncertain one, in order to deal with possible fluctuations, we must leave enough redundancy to deal with unexpected occurrences. Therefore, the concept of self-defense in currency speculation is to set aside 80% of the margin to deal with possible accidents and reasonably ensure that the position is not liquidated.

4. Use profits to maximize leverage

Treat principal and profit differently. When you make a profit in the right direction, you can use part of the profit to gamble with the highest leverage. Make a desperate move to gain excellent returns while absolutely ensuring the safety of your principal.

Through the above introduction, I believe everyone has some understanding of the issue of the maximum leverage of Bitcoin in 2021. As we all know, the higher the leverage, the higher the profits investors can obtain, but at the same time, the risks investors need to bear will also change. Therefore, the editor of the currency circle reminds investors not to use leverage lightly, especially when they know nothing about leveraged trading. After all, the risk is too high and investors may not be able to bear it.
