Trading, including with leverage, can result in losses as well as gains, and past results are never a guarantee of future ones. Only trade with funds you can afford to put at risk, and consider your position size relative to your account balance before submitting a request.
The Trading Tools area has calculators for position sizing, risk/reward and margin that can help you think through a trade before you commit to it.
