In my experience trading with INVAST, I found that the highest leverage INVAST offers for major forex currencies is 1:25 for personal accounts. This is fairly typical for brokers regulated in Japan, as the Financial Services Agency (FSA) sets strict leverage caps to help manage client risk. The broker also provides lower leverage options—such as 1:10, 1:5, and 1:1—which can be suitable for traders with different risk preferences or strategies. It’s important to highlight that the leverage is specifically structured for forex trading, as INVAST’s available asset classes are quite limited. Beyond forex, the only other notable products are ETFs, and there is no indication from the available information that the same leverage rates apply. In my observations, non-forex products like ETFs generally have lower or different leverage regulations in Japan, but INVAST’s documentation does not clearly specify the leverage for ETFs. There are no offerings for other asset classes like commodities, indices, stocks, or cryptocurrencies with INVAST, which means leverage options are simply not available for those markets on this platform. For me, this restriction emphasizes the need for traders to carefully consider their instrument choices, especially if high leverage is central to their trading style. Personally, I view INVAST's leverage caps as aligned with prudent risk management in a highly regulated environment.
