So maybe 100:1 is a good safety setting.

But anytime you are going over 10% of your TOTAL available margin (includes money borrowed from your broker) you are THEN in danger!
So where it says Used Margin (at the moment 7%) I watch that and if it goes above 10% I need to increase leverage (currently 100:1) to keep that number under 10% .. is that it?
