    What is liquidation?

    What is a liquidation price?

    In leveraged crypto trading, your liquidation price is the exact market price at which an exchange automatically closes your position to prevent your loss from exceeding your margin. When the market hits that price, your collateral is gone.

    Because leverage amplifies both gains and losses, even a small move against you can trigger liquidation, especially at high leverage. Knowing your liquidation price before entering a trade is a non-negotiable part of risk management.

    Higher leverage = closer liquidation
    At 10× your position liquidates around 10% from entry. At 100× it's just ~1% away. The slider makes this instantly visible.
    Longs and shorts liquidate in opposite directions
    A long position liquidates when price falls to the liquidation price. A short liquidates when price rises to it.
    Set your stop-loss above the liquidation price
    A best practice is to always place a stop-loss before your liquidation price, so you exit on your terms, not the exchange's.
    Formulas used
    ── Isolated Margin ──
    Long  : Entry × (1 − 1 ÷ Leverage)
    Short : Entry × (1 + 1 ÷ Leverage)

    ── Cross Margin ──
    Long  : Entry × (1 − 1 ÷ Leverage + MMR)
    Short : Entry × (1 + 1 ÷ Leverage − MMR)

    MMR = Maintenance Margin Rate (~0.5%)

    Isolated vs Cross margin: which should you use?

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    When the market price reaches your liquidation price, the exchange automatically closes your entire position and uses your margin to cover the loss. In isolated mode you lose only the margin allocated to that trade. In cross mode, losses can extend to your full account balance.
    The most reliable methods are: use lower leverage to give yourself more breathing room, always set a stop-loss above your liquidation price, never risk more than 1 to 2% of your account per trade, and add margin to your position if the price is moving against you.
    This calculator uses the standard industry formula. Most major exchanges (Binance, Bybit, OKX, UEEx) apply the same core logic, though some may include additional factors like insurance funds or tiered maintenance margin rates. For high-value trades, always verify with your exchange's own liquidation calculator.
    In cross margin mode, your full account balance acts as collateral. Because the exchange can draw on more funds to sustain your position, it can tolerate a larger unrealised loss before liquidating, pushing the liquidation price further away from your entry.
    MMR is the minimum margin percentage an exchange requires to keep a position open. Once your margin falls below this threshold, liquidation is triggered. Most exchanges set MMR at around 0.5% for standard contracts, which is the value this calculator uses.

    ⚠ High leverage warning. Your liquidation price is very close to your entry. Even small market fluctuations could trigger liquidation. Consider reducing leverage or placing a stop-loss well above the liquidation level.
