There are no stored price bars for this market at this timeframe, so the chart has nothing to draw. Every figure elsewhere on the page is built in advance from the daily series and is unaffected.
What $100 would have done, by leverage
—

| Leverage | Held to now | Return | Worst point | Cost of the round trip | Outcome |
|---|
Every minute in the window is walked in order and the worst price inside each bar is tested against the liquidation level before the close, so a position that was liquidated mid-window stays liquidated even if the price later recovered. Opened on the ask and marked on the bid for a long, and the reverse for a short. Indicative example based on third-party market data. Moon's reference price, spread, fees, settlement and liquidation rules may produce a different result.

What XAU did to leverage in 12 hours
You had 0.00 per cent up to work with on XAU over 12 hours, $4,195.81 to $4,195.88. The long was the right call on XAU and 100x still left you $99.16 of $100, because the round trip took 1 per cent of your stake. Every one of the 18 XAU multipliers finished the 12 hours, and the 50x short still holds $98.92 of your $100. Before direction mattered the 100x round trip took 1 per cent of your stake and 0.01 per cent of XAU price pays it back, roughly 0.6 per cent of an average session.
Where Gold Spot has been trading
XAU marks $4,195.88 after up 0.00 per cent on the session and down 4.45 per cent over five. Over three months XAU is up 0.95 per cent. Thirty sessions of XAU ran $3,996.32 to $4,449.78, leaving you 5.71 per cent off the top of it and 4.99 per cent off the bottom.
How far XAU moves in a session
You are sizing against 26.3 per cent annualised volatility over 30 XAU sessions and 23.5 per cent over 90, which reads as quiet. An ordinary XAU day swings 1.66 per cent either side of flat, and at its worst XAU fell 4.52 per cent below an open in the last 90 sessions.
The multiplier XAU actually survives
You could have carried 20x through all 30 XAU sessions and nothing above it, because 20x dies on a 5 per cent move against you. Drop to one-minute XAU bars and 0.6 per cent of them cover the whole 1000x liquidation distance, on a median bar of 0.0030 per cent.
Room and hit rate at every XAU multiplier
| Leverage | Liquidation distance | Sessions it was hit | Hit rate | Round-trip cost vs stake |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2x | 50.0000% | 0 / 90 | 0% | 1.0% |
| 5x | 20.0000% | 0 / 90 | 0% | 1.0% |
| 10x | 10.0000% | 0 / 90 | 0% | 1.0% |
| 20x | 5.0000% | 0 / 90 | 0% | 1.0% |
| 50x | 2.0000% | 14 / 90 | 16% | 1.0% |
| 100x | 1.0000% | 31 / 90 | 34% | 1.0% |
| 200x | 0.5000% | 45 / 90 | 50% | 1.0% |
| 500x | 0.2000% | 54 / 90 | 60% | 1.0% |
| 1000x | 0.1000% | 61 / 90 | 68% | 1.0% |
Max loss distance is one part in the leverage, because Moon closes a wager once it has lost the wager and documents no maintenance buffer. Hit count is the number of the last 90 sessions where the low fell that far below the session open, i.e. where a long opened at the open would have reached its max loss price intraday. Cost is Moon's 1% opening fee, charged on the wager and not on the exposure, so it does not change from one multiplier to the next. A rolling fee applies every 8 hours at a rate Moon does not publish and is not included.
What XAU costs you to open
The XAU entry price is 1 per cent of your wager, which is the same $1 per $100 at 1000x as at 2x. What changes is your room, and an average XAU session covers the 100x liquidation distance 1.6 times over. Carry XAU beyond 8 hours and you pay again at a rate Moon gives no figure for, which is why the 1 per cent is a floor.
XAU leverage questions
What multiplier is realistic on XAU?
20x, the highest XAU multiplier that avoided liquidation on every one of the last 30 sessions. A 5 per cent move against you closes the XAU wager.
What does opening a wager on XAU cost you?
1 per cent of your XAU wager, the same at 2x as at 1000x. Hold XAU past 8 hours and a rolling fee is added at a rate Moon does not publish.
Does 1000x make sense on XAU?
Your max loss price sits 0.10 per cent from entry, which XAU covered on 61 of the last 90 sessions. The length of your XAU hold settles it rather than the 1 per cent fee.
Before you take this to Moon
Everything above is derived from independent third-party market data. Moon prices its own book: the reference price, the spread it quotes, its fee schedule, its funding rate and its liquidation engine are all Moon's, and they will produce a different number from this page.
Every multiplier above is measured on XAU's own last 30 sessions rather than on a market average, so it tells you how leverage behaves on XAU and nothing else. Price your own XAU size on Moon against those 30 sessions before you commit to it.
Our last check on XAU at Moon is older than 30 days. Treating it as unknown until it is rechecked. Last checked 2026-08-27 by operator. Moon does list commodities at up to 1000x. What it costs and where it falls short.
What this simulator is
Prices come from Twelve Data, an independent market-data vendor, and are indicative. Moon's own reference price, spread, fee schedule, funding and liquidation rules will produce a different result. No money is staked here, no order is routed, and no position exists on any platform. At 1000× leverage a 0.01% difference between this chart and Moon's settlement feed moves the position value by roughly 10% of the stake, so treat every number below as an illustration of mechanics rather than a forecast of outcome.
Leverage arithmetic used
Exposure = stake × leverage. Long P/L = exposure × (mark − entry) ÷ entry. Short P/L = exposure × (entry − mark) ÷ entry. Entry takes the ask for a long and the bid for a short; closing does the reverse, so the spread is charged on the round trip. Liquidation triggers when equity falls to the maintenance margin, i.e. at an adverse move of (1 − leverage × maintenance rate) ÷ leverage.
Jurisdiction
Leverage caps, incentive bans and product classification differ by country. Retail CFD rules in the EU cap equity leverage far below the levels shown in this demo and restrict monetary incentives such as rakeback, so the referral block and the maximum selectable leverage must be gated per market before any page goes live. 18+. Trading leveraged products carries a high risk of losing your capital.
