Metrics note | Binance futures liquidations totaled $2.41 million in the past hour | Long positions accounted for 82.3% | $Q ranked first
First, a definition: The amounts reported are based on the notional value of positions, not actual losses. In isolated margin mode, when a 10x leveraged position is liquidated, the main loss is the margin—roughly one-tenth of the notional value.
A common takeaway: Don’t use leverage to try to win back losses; that’s often how a string of liquidations begins.
Before taking a leveraged position, first consider whether you can handle the worst-case outcome, then look at what the signals are saying.
