Let’s talk about mark price.
Mark price is generally calculated using the weighted prices from multiple spot exchanges, along with data such as basis and funding rates.
One thing that’s easy to overlook: the reason the latest price isn’t used to determine liquidations is to avoid unnecessary liquidations triggered by temporarily distorted prices on a single market.
To see how close you are to liquidation, compare the mark price with the liquidation price—don’t just look at the latest price.
Back to the market: $BTC is at 82054.01, up 2.46% over 24h.
