What is the minimum money i can put in to open a trade? If I deposit 100 how many trades can I open?

Thank you for your question tweedy82,

The minimum amount you can invest in a trade depends on the leverage you're using, with the eToro standard lot size being 10,000 units of currency. If you're using 1:400 leverage you an invest as little as $25 (25 x 400 = 10,000), but your investment will be riskier. If you're using 1:50 leverage the minimum you can invest is $200, and so on. Simply divide 10,000 by the leverage you want to use to get the minimum investment amount. Remember, the higher the leverage the higher the risk of losing your investment.

Thus, the maximum amount of trades you can open with a $100 deposit is 4 trades of $25 at 1:400 leverage. You can also choose to open 2 less risky trades of $50 at the leverage of 1:200, and so on.

Happy trading,
