100 of margin controlling a 1,000 position is 10x leverage.
Price moves act on the position, and your margin takes the result.
With the same position size, changing leverage changes the margin, not the P&L.
فوری جانچ
A 1,000 position moves 1% against you, ignoring fees. About how much do you lose?
خود آزمائیں
Choose 'fixed margin' and then 'fixed position' mode, and watch the money P&L after a price move.

With fixed margin, higher leverage enlarges the notional position. With a fixed position, money P&L doesn't grow automatically.

It's not free cash. Simply put, 100 of margin controlling a 1,000 position is 10x leverage. Price moves act on the position, and your margin takes the profit or loss.

Ignoring fees, a 1% move against you loses about 10 on a 1,000 position, and about 20 on a 2,000 position. The percentage looks small, but on a small margin it can hurt.

Here's an easy mistake. If the position size stays the same and you only change the leverage setting, the P&L in money for the same price move doesn't double. What changes is the margin required and your risk buffer.

Real liquidation also involves maintenance margin, the mark price and fees. You can't say 10x always liquidates at exactly a 10% drop. Don't use this shortcut for real trades.

You still have margin left. So why can you be forced out? Next: the line you can't see.

Understand first, then act.
