How to Reduce Futures Liquidation Risk Rate

1. Choose the Leverage Wisely

CoinEx supports up to 100x leverage in Futures trading. When opening a position, please be sure to choose the leverage at your acceptable level of risk.

For example, CoinEx supports up to 100x leverage for BTCUSD Inverse Contract. Assuming your capital is 1 BTC, and you choose 5x leverage when opening positions (5x leverage means the maximum openable amount for you is 5 BTC). However, to reduce risk to a bearable level, you can set your buying/selling amount at 2 BTC. In this case, your actual leverage is 2x, and your forced liquidation rate will be reduced (comparing to 5x leverage).

2. Stop Loss in Time

(1) Manually: When the Mark Price is about to meet the Forced Liquidation Price, you can reduce your positions manually to avoid forced liquidation.

(2) Systematically: You can also preset a Stop Price to stop loss in TP/SL Settings. When the Mark Price or the Latest Price reached your Stop Price, all your positions will be closed at the Market Price systematically.
