400:1 leverage in Forex eh? Ever consider what happens when you lose money with that much leverage.... I'm not even going to bother to look, but I find it extremely hard to believe that any instituion would let you borrow 100000$ with 250$ in your account.
EDIT
You do know leverage is borrowed money right? You know if you lose 1% with 400:1 leverage you would owe your broker 750$ right(assuming the maximum amount borrowed)?
this is so wrong I cant even believe it. this is why I believe none of you know what your talking about in reguards to forex.
If I place a trade for 1 mini lot(10k) at 200:1 leverage with a 20 pip stop loss in place its equal to about 50 bucks out of my margin. it drops 20 pips I get stopped out. 20 pips is equal to 20 dollars. they stop me out and I get 30 bucks back.
if you use 400:1 leverage and get a 10k lot for 25 bucks I get 5 bucks back when I am stopped out.
this is how forex works. like I said its not like anything else. you cant compare apples to cats.
