    At BYDFi, we offer leverage trading for cryptocurrencies. Leverage trading allows you to amplify your potential profits, but it also increases the risk of losses. With leverage, you can control larger positions with a smaller amount of capital. For example, if you have $100 and use 10x leverage, you can open a position worth $1,000. This means that if the price of the cryptocurrency you're trading goes up by 10%, you'll make a profit of $100 instead of just $10. However, if the price goes down by 10%, you'll lose $100 instead of just $10. It's important to have a solid risk management strategy in place when leverage trading to protect your capital.
