Before we discuss the leverage products of Samco, let us look at leverage trading:

What is leverage trading?

As per Investopedia, ‘leverage’ is the use of borrowed funds to increase one’s trading position beyond what would be available from their cash balance alone. Brokerage accounts allow the use of leverage through margin trading, where the broker provides the borrowed funds. Leverage, however, can amplify both profits as well as losses.
The leverage trading products offered by Samco are:

1. CashPlus
2. StockPlus

These leverage products ensure that traders maximise the efficiency of their capital and never have to miss a trade for want of it.

1. What is CashPlus?
