FOREXSNIPER Effective Leverage Calculator
Compare total notional exposure with current account equity. The result describes exposure; it does not choose a safe leverage level for you.
Calculate effective leverage
Ratio = gross notional ÷ equityEducational sensitivity estimate only. It does not model margin calls, liquidation, portfolio correlation, execution costs, or the rules of a particular broker.
Trading tips
Use current equity
Use account equity after open profit and loss, not the original deposit or current balance alone.
Add gross notional
Total the absolute notional value of each open position. Do not net long and short positions unless the platform’s margin rules explicitly do so.
Separate leverage from margin
Effective leverage is exposure divided by equity. Offered leverage is a broker limit; margin is collateral required under the platform’s rules.
Treat 1% as a sensitivity check
The 1% figure is a simple notional move before spread, commission, financing, slippage, gaps, correlation, or currency conversion.
