Recently experienced a TradeFi gold contract product from a leading exchange, and the overall user experience was quite good. However, there is one pain point that must be mentioned—the leverage multiple for gold trading is indeed a bit underwhelming. Especially when trying to use high leverage, the system imposes limits on individual positions, which directly affects capital efficiency. For traders who want to perform precise operations on physical gold assets, this restriction can be somewhat restrictive, significantly compressing the liquidity turnover space.

Is gold leverage so useless? No wonder there haven't been many people playing these past two days. The capital utilization efficiency is suppressed to the point of being truly pointless.

ngl the leverage cap on gold futures is basically them holding your hand when you wanna sprint... classic exchange move, right? they're terrified of liquidation cascades so they nerf the whole experience for everyone else lol

The leverage ceiling is too restrictive, isn't it just placing a shackle on our capital turnover... Want to leverage heavily but the system firmly holds us down, it's really frustrating.

According to data, the leverage restriction issues of such exchanges actually reflect their conservative risk control models—single position limits are usually associated with the setting of liquidation risk thresholds. It is worth noting that this design often directly lowers the upper limit of capital utilization to around 60-70%.

The leverage restriction move is really clever; it feels like it's putting shackles on aggressive traders.
