Dynamic leverage
26 Sep 2018, 11:21

Dear Panagiotis,

I am trying to find a leverage for the Symbol (let us say Barclays)

the API telss me this:

var symbolLeverage = Symbol.DynamicLeverage[0]; 
var realLeverage = Math.Min(symbolLeverage, Account.Leverage);

when I try to use it I get this:

and the printout is

26/09/2018 11:04:20.142 | 1, cTrader.CrossDomain.PCL.Symbols.LeverageTier, 30

How do I find a leverage for a Symbol, so I could implement Risk?

Best regards

Sasha

Hi Sasha,

Here it is

var symbolLeverage = Symbol.DynamicLeverage[0].Leverage;

You should also have in mind that as the volume of open positions for the specific symbol increases, the leverage might change. This is why the leverage is provided in a tiered structure with parameters the volume and the applicable leverage for each tier. So if you trade large volumes then you should also check at which tier you are at that moment.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
