Leveraging in forex refers to the practice of using borrowed funds from a broker to control a larger position in the currency markets than the trader's own capital would allow. Forex brokers typically offer leverage ratios, which allow traders to control larger positions with a smaller amount of capital. Leveraging can be attractive to traders because it can potentially magnify profits, but it also carries significant risks. When using leverage, losses can also be magnified, which means that traders can lose more than their initial investment.
