uk mt4 demo leverage setting

[Guest wayne]

trying to set up a demo where the leverage matches 1:20 and the account deposit value is a realistic number. is this possible because the existing instructions results in a 1:200 leverage config with 10k deposit

Hi, the leverage settings are fixed, I'm not sure what the units are but it works out as per regulators max for whatever market. 

You can't change the leverage but you don't have to use it all, you decrease the amount you use by decreasing the trades position size.

If you download the IG MT4 apps pack and devote a random new chart to the 'Trade terminal' EA it gives much more info on margin available and margin in use, etc - (similar to what appears on the IG web based platform).
