PSA: Remember to NOT take excessive leverage during volatile times
The amount of money traders have borrowed to buy shares, is at $936 billions, up 40% from this time last year.
The scary thing about this is a domino effect, when a few accounts kena margin call and they are force to sell, that can cause the price to fall, which trigger even more margin call, which causes even more forced selling, and it goes on.
I have reduced my leverage to 0 by topping up my account with cash to support all the trades I made using leverage. So trade safe everyone
