🔥 The essentials of futures trading: liquidation price
The initial margin on a highly leveraged position is already small. After subtracting the maintenance margin, even less room remains for unrealized losses, so the liquidation price is very close to the entry price.
Rather than waiting to be liquidated, set a stop-loss in advance. Taking a loss proactively is often less costly than being liquidated.
For reference, the market shows: $BTC at 83000.02 (24h +0.5%).
If you find this useful, save it so you can look it up later.
Just my personal opinion—don’t use it as the basis for trading decisions.
