Leveraged

Leveraged is a multi‑asset proprietary trading firm that evaluates traders through a simulation phase and, upon success, offers a funded "Portfolio Manager" account with an 80% profit share. The firm emphasizes a simple evaluation path, including a Pay‑After‑You‑Pass model for its Turbo and Crypto challenges, and operates accounts on MT5 and cTrader. Its website and FAQ position the company as a prop firm—not a broker—and describe a rules‑based environment oriented around risk discipline and consistency.

The legal entity is GetLeveraged Ltd, registered in Saint Lucia, with a published head office address in Limassol, Cyprus. The Terms of Use list several restricted jurisdictions, including the United States, meaning US residents cannot open accounts. These pages also outline AML/KYC checks and the post‑evaluation onboarding agreement.

Program options span multiple paths: a Pay‑After‑You‑Pass Turbo (1‑step), a Sprint (1‑step) with tight risk limits, a Junior (1‑step) $5k starter, a Senior (2‑step) from $10k to $100k, and an Executive (3‑step) up to $1,000,000. Profit targets, drawdowns, and time limits vary by track and are published in the help center.

Beyond funding, Leveraged promotes daily/weekly education, a “Trader’s Library,” and community channels. The Academy schedule shows recurring webinars, market reviews, and live sessions intended to support skill development. The firm also markets “AI‑powered tools” on its site.

 Leveraged suits traders who want low entry costs, a straightforward one‑step option with no time limit, and are comfortable with funded‑stage consistency requirements, a minimum two‑minute hold rule, and high‑impact news restrictions. US‑based traders and ultra‑short‑term scalpers should look elsewhere due to access limits and strategy rules.

Reputation and transparency

Leveraged presents itself transparently as a proprietary trading firm (not a broker) with rules and program parameters published in its help center. The organization discloses a Saint Lucia legal entity and a Cyprus head office address. The Terms also disclose restricted jurisdictions—explicitly including the United States—and describe AML/KYC onboarding after the simulation.

Broker and market access

Trading is conducted on MT5 and cTrader during the evaluation; for funded accounts, the Terms clarify that positions are reviewed and the company retains discretion over whether to execute suggested trades with its capital. This wording underscores that evaluation performance may be simulated and that the firm may manage execution risk internally.

Trustworthiness, rules publication, and data security

Key rules—profit targets, drawdowns, time limits, strategy restrictions, payout cadence, and eligibility—are documented publicly. The site references KYC, inactivity policies, and a multilingual help center, which are useful for clarity and compliance. However, as with all prop firms, traders should read Terms/FAQs carefully, especially around trailing drawdown mechanics and payout eligibility.

Trading rules (funded account)

• Profit share: 80% to the trader by default. First payout may be requested after 14 calendar days; ongoing payouts every 14 days.
• Eligibility for first payout: at least 3 separate profitable days (≥0.5% each) and a Consistency Score below 20% (best day ≤20% of total profit).
• Risk limits (Turbo funded): 3% daily loss and 6% trailing max loss; the trailing drawdown rises with new equity highs and locks at the initial balance after +6% closed profit.
• Daily drawdown is calculated from the higher of balance/equity at 23:00 GMT+3.
• Inactivity: accounts dormant for 30+ days may be closed.

Trading restrictions

• High‑impact news: trading is restricted on most accounts during the 5 minutes before and after high‑impact events (Sprint excluded). Profits from trades executed in the restricted window can be removed; holding existing positions through news is allowed.
• Minimum hold time: each trade must be held at least 2 minutes; frequent sub‑2‑minute closes can trigger review and potential termination.
• Strategy bans include HFT, latency exploitation, bracketing into news, grid/martingale‑style approaches, hedging between accounts/firms, and tick scalping; copy‑trading between different owners is prohibited.
• Partial‑close manipulation and overnight hedging are explicitly disallowed on funded Turbo accounts.
• EAs: risk‑management and self‑developed EAs are allowed; commercial EAs are not. Copy‑trading your own accounts is permitted; third‑party management is not.

Leverage structure

Turbo leverage by asset: FX 1:30, Metals 1:10, Indices 1:8, Energies 1:3, Crypto 1:1. Other programs can differ (e.g., Senior lists up to 1:100 on FX; see program‑level leverage table in the help center). Lower leverage on more volatile assets helps keep risk within the stated daily and max drawdowns.

The help center notes access to more than 60 instruments covering several asset classes: FX, indices, metals, energies/commodities, cryptocurrencies, and stocks. Availability can vary by program and platform. For instrument specifics, check the symbol list in your MT5 or cTrader instance.

Leverage is program‑dependent. Turbo’s caps are FX 1:30, Metals 1:10, Indices 1:8, Energies 1:3, and Crypto 1:1, while other programs may allow higher FX leverage (e.g., up to 1:100 on Senior, per the leverage table). Conservative leverage on volatile assets like indices, energies, and crypto helps align risk with the drawdown rules.

Leveraged offers MetaTrader 5 (MT5) and cTrader. Having both gives traders flexibility and compatibility with a wide range of tools and workflows. Platform choice is unaffected by most program types, but regional access to the firm itself is restricted—its Terms list several forbidden territories including the United States.

MetaTrader 5 (MT5)MT5 is widely used in retail FX/CFD trading. Many traders value its depth of third‑party indicators, strategy testing, and multi‑asset support, which can help when building or porting existing discretionary and automated approaches.

• Advantages: broad indicator ecosystem, multi‑timeframe charting, depth‑of‑market for certain symbols, and integrated strategy tester.
• Key features: market/limit/stop orders, EAs (subject to Leveraged’s rules), alerts, and custom scripting via MQL5.

cTradercTrader emphasizes modern UI design, robust order management, and cBots for automation. Traders who prefer detachable charts, advanced depth‑of‑market views, and native cloud‑sync often favor it.

• Advantages: clean interface, rich order types, detachable panels, cTrader Automate (cBots).
• Key features: multiple chart types/timeframes, quick order tickets, algorithmic trading with C#, and server‑side alerts.

Mobile tradingBoth platforms provide mobile apps for monitoring, order entry, and risk management—useful for maintaining compliance with daily loss and trailing drawdown thresholds while away from the desk. Note that all automation and copy‑trading must respect Leveraged’s EA/copy‑trading policies.

Leveraged combines funding programs with education and community resources. The firm’s website highlights “AI‑powered” tools intended to assist decision‑making, though details are high‑level. More concretely, the Academy features recurring live webinars, live trading/coaching sessions, and a Trader’s Library of written content. These are accessible from the public site and Academy page.

• Academy & live sessions: A weekly schedule shows frequent webinars (risk management, psychology, market outlooks) and community live trading rooms hosted via Discord/YouTube/Twitter/X. Practical for newer traders to align strategy with the firm’s risk rules.
• Trader’s Library & market reviews: Curated articles and daily/weekly market reviews provide structured learning and context for upcoming sessions.
• Community access: Public Discord and social channels offer peer interaction; useful for workflow tips and logistics (e.g., payout timing, rule clarifications).
• Profit calculator & onboarding resources: The site references a profit calculator and quizzes to help set expectations on targets, drawdowns, and potential payouts.

Scaling: A formal multi‑stage scaling plan is not described publicly in the help center; instead, the firm focuses on multiple program sizes up to $1,000,000 in the Executive track and a total maximum allocation cap across programs. Traders seeking scaling should verify current policies directly with support.

Evaluation fees

Turbo/Crypto use a Pay‑After‑You‑Pass structure. You pay $8.88 to start; if you pass, you then pay the final activation fee to unlock the funded account. Turbo final fees after the $8.88 credit: $76.12 (10k), $180.12 (25k), $340.12 (50k), $540.12 (100k), $816.12 (150k), $1,089.12 (200k). Crypto final fees: $80.12 (10k), $210.12 (25k), $390.12 (50k), $640.12 (100k), $980.12 (150k). You have 30 days after passing to pay the activation fee. Pricing for other tracks (Junior/Sprint/Senior/Executive) is not posted in the help center pages reviewed.

Trading commissions

Commission is $4 per round‑turn lot on Forex and Metals; other asset classes (indices, commodities/energies, crypto, etc.) are listed with zero commissions in the FAQ. Spreads and swaps are not specified on the public pages reviewed.

Swap/holding costs

The help center does not publish a swap table; traders should monitor platform symbol specifications for any overnight costs and understand how these may interact with daily drawdown calculations at 23:00 GMT+3.

Refund policy

The simulation fee is generally non‑refundable per the Terms. However, the help center notes a simulation‑fee reimbursement on your third payout—an important exception to verify against your agreement.

Profit split

Standard profit share is 80% to the trader across programs. This is above the traditional 70/30 split seen historically and aligns incentives for consistent profitability.

Payout eligibility

After activation of a funded account, the first payout can be requested 14 calendar days after trading begins—provided you have at least three profitable days (≥0.5% each) and a Consistency Score under 20% (best day ≤20% of total profit). Ongoing withdrawals follow a 14‑day cadence if eligibility is maintained.

Payout schedule and mechanics

Payouts are bi‑weekly by default. The help center states payout processing averages around 48 hours after approval. Profits withdrawn may affect the locked drawdown reference, so traders should plan buffers to continue trading post‑withdrawal.

Payment methods

Available methods include wire transfer, Revolut, debit card, and crypto (BTC, ETH, and others). The FAQ notes a $25 operational fee for Revolut and wire transfers.
