What leverage should be good for a newbie to use?

but live account can make the beginners greedy and emotional , personally i dont support for the beginners level.
For a newbie, it's generally recommended to start with lower leverage to ensure you're not taking on excessive risk. Personally, I think 1:50 is okay.
Actually high leverage is used to earn more money. So majority of the new traders trade based on their assumption and they fail. So, I think it won’t be a wise option for them to take more risk. 1:1 can be an ideal choice for them.

A) This is a Forex thread. 1:1 in Fx = 0.000....
B) Risk is not measured by leverage, it's measured by max SL.
Whishing you success
High leverage can be risky for beginners or new traders; it can lead to the burning of several accounts. The best option is to use low leverage brokers during the initial stages.
You can use FP Markets ASIC regulation, where the leverage offered is 30:1, and after making consistent profits, if you are looking for higher leverage, you can switch to their offshore license, where they provide 500:1 higher leverage.

For a newbie in forex trading, it's generally advisable to start with low leverage or even consider trading without leverage initially. A leverage of 10:1 or lower is a conservative choice. This allows you to manage risk better while you gain experience in the market. Remember, leverage can amplify both gains and losses, so it's crucial to use it wisely.
If we talk about a beginner, then it is better for him to set a small leverage. After all, a beginner does not yet have the skills to find more accurate market entries and often beginners trade without stop losses or do not know how to set them correctly due to the poor quality of their trading strategy.
If I was a beginner ,and I am assuming that you don't have a proven edge (yet) Then I would forget about Leverage at this time.
Stick to a Sim / Demo,,, and learn
Leverage, size ,etc, etc (O , and how much Tax you pay at the end of the year, will come later.
Don't jump the Gun, if you don't have that proven consistent edge, discussing leverage at this time is irrelevant.
