Futures exposure at DayTraders is defined by max contract limits rather than a single published leverage ratio. Contract limits vary by account size and type, ranging from micro-only smaller limits up to larger mini/micro allocations on higher-tier accounts. DayTraders also notes that futures are leveraged products, allowing traders to control larger positions with less capital.
