Margin trading on Exness means putting up a small deposit (margin) to control a larger position through leverage. Leverage boosts both gains and losses, and your free margin cushions losses. If equity falls too far you face a margin call and then a stop out. Exness's very high leverage magnifies risk, so use the calculator and modest position sizes.
