⚠️ Crypto Leverage Liquidation Calculator

Liquidation price is the price at which margin falls below the maintenance level and the position is force-closed. Under a simplified isolated-margin model: long liquidation ≈ entry × (1 − 1/leverage + MMR), short ≈ entry × (1 + 1/leverage − MMR). E.g. a 50,000 long at 10x leverage with 0.5% MMR liquidates around 45,250 — roughly a 9.5% drop.

In leveraged trading, price moves are amplified by the leverage multiple. At 10x, a 5% price move produces a ±50% P&L swing. That also means a 5% adverse move can wipe out half your margin — the higher the leverage, the narrower the cushion before liquidation.

Leveraged/margin trading can result in losses exceeding your principal. Real exchanges apply fees, funding rates (for perpetuals), and partial-liquidation mechanics not modeled here, so actual liquidation prices will differ. Only trade small amounts you can afford to lose, and set a stop-loss line in advance.
