Thread: What maximum lot sizes will brokers accept?

  1. #1
    Trading in 200:1 leveraged is demanded.

    Hedging performance demanded.

    That I simply wish to understand which brokers have exactly what highest aggregated lots each side of a transaction in their principles to decide the leverage degree. Eg, complete of market trades or total of buy trades.

    My account involves those customers I exchange for. The matter is getting to be a problem for me personally.

    One broker recently pointed out to me if I surpass 200 lots of buy or sell, my leverage will auto-drop down to 100:1. That if I then exceeded 300 lots of buy or sell it will auto-drop to 50:1.

    Brokers are welcome to contribute their own limitations.

    This really is a first for me, I understand it can depend on what broker you're using, a few EU brokers are extremely strict in regards to scalping and number of trades opened, a few wont allow trades which lasts less than 5 minutes, but states of yours is a first for me. .

    The broker I use, Alpari NZ Limited, lets 1,000 lots each order.
    The leverage drops to 1:10 on orders above 15 million USD, however.

    Generally that the range is 100-200 lots of sell or buy open at the same time. Publicly traded brokers (listed on a share market somewhere) want bigger orders to be traded, but that auto-magically fall your leverage down to 100:1 when north of 200 lots. Then further north to 50:1 at 300 lots plus etc..

    The huge traders living in the experience of 10,000-100,000 lot transactions are normally operating at 10:1, 5:1 and 1:1.

    Should you read the tales Forex BILIONaires, then Warren and Buffet and George Soros would be the only ones you'll find. Allow me to know please if you find some other examples. And I would wager they were conducting their own accounts at low single digit leverage levels.

    NON public traded brokers are be 100:1 to 200:1.

    Then there's Dukscopy that shuts their leverage down involving the NY close along with the Tokyo open.

    This all being true, then to conduct 2,000 lots of trade demands about 20 accounts across different brokers with a trade copier alternative.

    Anyone got smart tactics to move ahead?

    ECN brokers will ordinarily be able to take larger lot sizes than market marker brokers.

    Me, which is the reason why I opened this thread.

    Assessing the broker's limits while maintaining leverage sway is the secret.
