What does 1000x mean?

$10 margin controls about $10,000 notional. A 0.1% adverse move is roughly 100% of margin (before fees and exact liquidation rules).

Risks

Extreme leverage amplifies fees, funding, slippage, and liquidation risk. Small wicks can end the trade.

How to choose

Prefer venues with clear docs, transparent liquidation rules, and evidence you can verify on-site — not title tags alone.
