Before looking at fund flows, first understand liquidation.
Maintenance margin is the minimum margin required to keep a position from being liquidated. The larger the position, the higher the required margin ratio usually is.
Reducing leverage, keeping more margin, and setting stop-losses in advance are the most common ways to avoid liquidation.
Sizing positions based on the stop-loss distance is much more reliable than picking a position size by guesswork.
