# How to Calculate Position Size and Stop-Loss with 500x Leverage on Gold?
Many people trading gold$XAUUSD casually mention 500x leverage, but when asked how to calculate position size, they are completely confused. Today, we’ll focus on one thing—how to calculate position size, stop-losses, and profit and loss with 500x leverage. No grand theories, just the calculations.
With 500x leverage, how much margin does each trade require?
There is only one formula:
Margin = lot size × 100 × price ÷ 500
At a gold price of 4400, let’s do some calculations:
- 0.01 lots → 0.01×100×4400÷500 = $8.8

#OpenAIAnnualRevenueSurpasses40B
OpenAI has crossed another major milestone in the global AI race: its annualized revenue has reportedly surpassed $40 billion, highlighting just how quickly the commercial AI market is moving from experimentation into a large-scale business.
What makes this milestone especially interesting is the speed of the growth. OpenAI said in March 2026 that it was generating around $2 billion in revenue per month, implying an annualized pace of roughly $24 billion at that point. The latest $40B+ annualized figure therefore represents growth of more than 66% from that mo

INTC vs CSCO – Which One Is the Better Bet Right Now?"
One is up 3.65%, the other is down 8.38%. Both are tech giants. But only one looks like a buy to me.
$INTC ‌ at 104.64 – support at 100, resistance at 107.56. MACD is neutral. I'm buying at 104 with a stop at 100.
$CSCO ‌ at 113.52 – down 8.38%. Support at 111.48. If it holds, I'll buy. But I'm waiting for a bounce first.
Here's my honest take: INTC is the better short-term play. CSCO needs to prove itself.
What do you think – INTC or CSCO?

Gate Launchpool Issue 370 is bringing a new $DOS reward opportunity with 1,410,000 DOS allocated to participants.
The campaign runs from August 10 to August 24 at 19:00 UTC+8, with users able to stake $GUSD , $USDT or $DOS and receive DOS rewards automatically every hour.
The headline number is an estimated up to 245.07% annualized yield, but this is where the details matter. A high APY is not a fixed return. The effective rate can change as the amount of assets in the pools changes, so the better way to evaluate the opportunity is to look at the reward pool, participati

🚨 Goldman Sachs is making a major move into crypto investing.
The banking giant is acquiring NEOS Investments in a deal worth up to $2.25B.
NEOS manages a $1.1B Bitcoin income fund that doesn't hold BTC directly.
Instead, it:
📈 Buys spot Bitcoin ETFs
💰 Sells covered calls to generate income
The strategy targets 27% annual payouts, although the fund is still down 42.55% over the past year.
Goldman also filed for its own Bitcoin covered-call ETF earlier this year, signaling that institutional interest in crypto income strategies continues to grow.
