I don't think you did the math. I have been 'day trading' BTC/USD since Oct/2023 at 20:1 margin. I now will move to 500:1 margin. Whether I have $20k or $1k, do the math on buying power.
How successful were you for the last 2 years using the 20:1 Margin before we even talk about that 500:1 which is more like a casino thing?

Don't think you are the first trader to play the game to leverages. Yes, you could have higher buying power, but how will your performance be winrate wise?

Maybe op has to throw more light on what he meant as I am also trying to comprehend what he mean over there. Of course 25x seems to be too higher for some who doesn't have much equity and could be liquidated then just imagine 500x how do you think he could survive the market if things happens to go the opposite?
Probably trying to explore. He will learn whatever lessons he will meet along the way. We don't even have to labor telling him what could happen.
