Do a bit of work yourself and look it up on YouTube man.
We're a community, not Google.

Nevertheless, here's a video by Energyzed.

Here's my 'hardstyle lead 101':
-Have a good melody
-Make a unique, not that big, but clean lead sound (squarish, distorted just some saw ->experiment)
-Chords playing in the background, supersaws
-Huge reverb +delays

Ofc there are other techniques, but this is the basic one :)

Use a few octaves of the main melody :)
