Leverage with a floor
Up to 1000x sounds like a moonshot. It is also a 0.1% move away from losing the wager. Here is how sizing actually works.

Leverage lets a small wager control a much larger position. On Moon, that can go as high as 1000x, depending on the market and conditions.
The useful part is the floor: liquidation happens when losses equal the wager you chose. You are not on the hook beyond that amount, even if the market keeps running.
Two pictures of the same $100
- $100 at 10x → about $1,000 of exposure. Roughly a 10% move against you wipes the wager.
- $100 at 1000x → about $100,000 of exposure. Roughly a 0.1% move against you wipes the same $100.
Same maximum loss. Much less room.
Fees still apply
Moon charges a 1% opening fee on the wager, not on the leveraged size. Positions held past the first period incur a holding fee every 8 hours. Winning bets may pay a performance fee of at least 10% of realized profit.
The ticket you see on Moon before you confirm is the one that counts.
How to treat it
Start smaller than you think. Use auto close if you want a guardrail. Try play money first. Only risk what you can afford to lose.
Ready when you are.
