As an experienced trader, my due diligence around nabtrade’s leverage offerings left me with some reservations worth sharing. From the information I gathered, nabtrade positions itself primarily as an investment platform, not a specialist forex broker, and focuses on shares, fixed income products, and managed investments. They do mention access to international shares and some margin lending options, specifically through their NAB Margin Loan product, but there is a notable absence of detailed leverage figures for major forex pairs. For me, this lack of transparency is a significant red flag, especially since leverage directly impacts both potential risk and reward. Unlike regulated brokers in Australia, who must specify leverage caps and margin requirements by law, nabtrade operates without any recognized financial regulation. In my experience, unregulated brokers often provide limited or inconsistent information on critical details such as leverage, leaving traders exposed to unforeseen risks. Additionally, nabtrade emphasizes its margin loans for investing in shares, with terms starting from $20,000, but it does not present leverage ratios for forex or compare maximum leverage across other asset classes. This ambiguity makes it challenging for traders like me to assess potential risk levels or strategize effectively. Given these factors and the broader risk profile, I personally would approach nabtrade with caution until clear, regulated leverage details are disclosed.
