Bitpanda launches margin trading with up to 10x leverage

Beincrypto reports Bitpanda has launched a Margin Trading product designed to provide an intuitive interface and tools for leveraged trading across more than 120 crypto assets, offering up to 10x leverage on top-tier tokens.

Margin trading uses borrowed funds to amplify exposure — for example, using €200 as collateral at 5x leverage lets a trader control €1,000 of position, magnifying both gains and losses. Bitpanda’s product features flexible, dynamic leverage by asset liquidity (top-tier assets up to 10x; mid-cap assets at lower ratios), Margin Limit Orders, and an integrated web and mobile UX that displays a position "Health Level" and allows instant funding to reduce leverage. The fee structure includes 0% buy fees, 0% deposit and withdrawal fees, a funding fee of 0.18% daily (0.03% every four hours), a 0.3% sell fee and a 1% liquidation fee.

Bitpanda positions margin trading for experienced traders and emphasises risk management: it sources liquidity to smooth execution, provides real-time alerts and liquidation visualisations, and warns that even small price moves can trigger margin calls or liquidation and may result in the loss of all capital. Borrowing fees accrue every four hours, and users are reminded that margin trading carries substantial risk.
