FX Warrior Kurumi What is FX (Spoiler Alert)

FX is foreign exchange margin (a type of futures trading). It's a currency you absolutely must not touch. In the anime, the leverage is only 59x, but in reality, it can go up to 200x (and maybe even over 1000x). What does this mean? If you invest 100 yuan to buy currency, you can earn up to 20,000 yuan, but conversely, you could also lose 20,000 yuan. In the anime, Kurumi's mother chose the Australian dollar (a relatively stable currency), but still lost 20 million yen. Forced Liquidation To allow you to stop losses in time, banks set a forced liquidation line at 25% of your total remaining balance. If you lose down to that line, you can stop your losses immediately. But it's not necessarily a good thing. If you hit that line and it bounces back up, you'll be crying your eyes out. There are pros and cons to the forced liquidation line, but there's something worse. It drops directly, preventing even the forced liquidation line from reacting. You lose until you go bankrupt. Playing FX is less practical than playing stocks. Taiwanese stocks have a 10% limit for the highest daily increase and decrease rate. You can react in real-time and play long-term. But in the end, I want to tell you that investment carries risks. Invest cautiously. Don't fall into the sunk cost fallacy.
