I look at an intelligent stop loss level first, then set the trade volume based on how much in money terms I am prepared to lose on that trade.
Leverage just affects the margin cost to open a trade.
That's very close to the way Im doing it. I just think the high leverage is useless if it allows you to open a trade on a ridiculously small account.
