Bitpanda Margin Trading on stocks, ETFs and ETCs with up to 20x leverage is now available. For the first time in Europe, you can amplify your stock trading while staying invested in real assets. A direct way to access leverage within a seamless and intuitive experience and zero buy fees. Whether you're reacting to short-term market movements or actively managing positions throughout the day, Margin Trading on Real Stocks gives you the flexibility to move faster and go further - accelerating risks and rewards.
You can now buy on margin and take leveraged positions of up to 20x on Stocks & ETFs, increasing your market exposure beyond your initial capital. In practice, this means you can open larger positions and react more dynamically to market opportunities — all within the Bitpanda app.
At the same time, leverage comes with increased risk. While it can amplify potential gains, it can also amplify losses, including the possibility of losing your entire investment and having to repay borrowed funds and fees with your own capital.
Margin Trading is optimised for users who want to act quickly.
With zero buy fees and a competitive €1 sell fees, you can enter and exit positions efficiently, moving quickly without unnecessary cost barriers. A daily degressive fee of 0.18% and a liquidation fee of 1% also apply.
Combined with instant, free deposits across all payment methods and transparent pricing with no hidden spreads, the experience is designed to keep you focused on trading, not on fees or user experience complexity.
Margin Trading is built for users who understand the mechanics of leverage and are comfortable trading with risks in dynamic markets.
It’s a powerful tool to amplify a strategy, but it requires discipline and awareness. The combination of higher exposure and fast execution makes it especially interesting for active traders who want faster movement when they engage on the capital market.
Our built-in risk management tools help you stay in control of your positions from the start. With clear visibility over your exposure and liquidation thresholds, you always know where you stand, even in fast-moving markets.
Everything is fully integrated into the Bitpanda platform, so you can trade in seconds, monitor your positions in real time, and manage your strategy without friction.
Margin Trading on Stocks, ETFs and ETCs is now live on Bitpanda.
If you’re ready to go beyond the market, you can start exploring leveraged trading directly in the app.
Disclaimer
Stocks/ETFs/ETCs transactions are provided on an execution-only basis by Bitpanda Financial Services GmbH without investment advice. Investing involves risk of loss, and past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
Margin Trading and borrowing E-Token are provided by Bitpanda GmbH as an unregulated service. Margin trading involves borrowing E-Token (EURCV) to amplify potential gains and losses when investing in Stocks/ETFs/ETCs. For each Stocks/ETFs/ETCs margin trade, you pledge the acquired Stocks/ETFs/ETCs and additional assets, including E-Money and crypto assets, as collateral to Bitpanda GmbH. Small price movements in the relevant Stocks/ETFs/ETCs may trigger margin calls or liquidation.
Risk beyond total loss: You can lose all pledged assets and still owe borrowed EURCV, including daily fees. Daily fees accrue every four hours, reducing returns and affecting your margin level. Margin trading is suitable for experienced customers only. Make sure you understand the risks of margin trading and the risks associated with financial instruments, including volatility and total loss. Do not enter into a margin trade if you cannot afford to lose your investment or to repay borrowed funds and daily fees. Consider your personal circumstances and, where appropriate, seek independent advice.
