From my experience using DEGIRO, it’s important to clarify that DEGIRO is primarily designed as a multi-asset investment platform rather than a forex-focused broker. In my own use, the platform is better tailored for trading stocks, ETFs, bonds, options, funds, and certain structured products, not for direct forex trading. I have never found traditional leveraged forex pairs (like EUR/USD or GBP/USD) available for trade in the same way I’ve seen at brokers specializing in FX, nor is leverage on forex pairs highlighted or promoted. DEGIRO does offer margin trading on certain instruments, but this is typically limited to select stocks and exchange-listed products, not major spot forex pairs. The actual leverage available on different assets does vary, but even then, it is generally more conservative than what dedicated forex brokers might offer—and always within the strict boundaries of European regulatory standards. For me, that has translated to relatively modest leverage compared to what’s available elsewhere, and I’ve always needed to check the platform’s specific product lists and risk disclosures before trading on margin. Given that DEGIRO’s regulatory situation is unsettled, and there is a notable lack of clear regulatory oversight according to public information, I would be highly cautious with margin or leverage of any kind. For traders primarily seeking high or variable leverage on forex, DEGIRO simply isn’t designed for that, and I would recommend great care and a full review of their product offering before making any assumptions about leverage. Always ensure your trading priorities align with the platform’s actual strengths and limitations.
