## Why hl_set_leverage is rated High

Setting leverage on a perpetuals exchange (Hyperliquid) is an Execute-level action that configures trading parameters affecting financial risk exposure. While it doesn't directly move funds, changing leverage directly controls the risk profile of existing or future positions—a misconfigured leverage multiplier could lead to liquidation of positions and significant financial loss.

From the tool's own definition: "Set leverage multiplier for a market on Hyperliquid"
