The liquidation price is not fixed; it changes according to:
- Changes in margin balance
- Fees and interest
- Type of account
- Market movements
- Adding or withdrawing funds from the margin
Example (simplified):
- If you start a trade with $100 at 10x leverage and a liquidation price of 9000 (for example, for Bitcoin).
- After 3 days, $2 in fees and interest are deducted.
- Now your actual capital is $98, so the liquidation point is adjusted closer (for example, it becomes 9010).
- The longer you hold the trade, the closer the liquidation gets.
Advice:
- Always monitor your margin balance and the fees/interest paid.
- Use stop-loss orders.
- Do not use high leverage unless fully aware of its risks.
⚠️ Very important notice:
- Leverage multiplies profits, but it also multiplies losses!
- If the price drops by just 5%, you could lose your entire capital ($10), as the loss is calculated on the full trading amount ($200).
- Trading with leverage requires high expertise and precise risk management.
