Why brokers offer high leverage if everybody says it will blow your account? - page 2

Higher risk - the higher the income or higher loss
 

IMHO, everyone have different preference so high leverage can be bad or good depends on the persons strategy.

if you properly manage your position and P/L than high leverage is good but if you dont it is not.

so unless the regulatory in each country thinks the retail can't understand managing your position is must for high leverage, regulatory can (ie, japan regulatory) band it for retail broker. 

 
tele2112:
so its usefull high leverage after all? it blows your account or not?
It depends, in some cases you can play it safe if you are not sure, but sometimes if you think the deal is good you can risk to use high leverage. I think, it is better if company gives you the chance to use really high leverage or really low one, it is helpful.   
 

What blows your account, is your trading style/strategy.

Use low risk lot size, use low risk strategy --> survive this market and earn!
