Leverage

Also known as: margin leverage

The ratio that lets you control a position larger than your account balance.

How it works

At 1:30 leverage, $1,000 of margin controls a $30,000 position. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses, so prop firms cap it to keep drawdown realistic.

At WICK FUNDED

WICK FUNDED applies realistic, asset-class-appropriate leverage on its simulated accounts so risk mirrors live conditions — high enough to trade normally, capped to keep the tight 5–6% drawdown meaningful.
