How do I calculate LINK liquidation price?

Enter your LINK entry price, leverage and direction. Liquidation = Entry x (1 - 1/Leverage + MMR) for a long and Entry x (1 + 1/Leverage - MMR) for a short.

At what percentage is a LINK position liquidated?

Roughly 1/Leverage minus the maintenance margin. A 10x LINK position is liquidated after about a 9-10% move; 100x after about 1%.

How LINK liquidation works

Chainlink perps are popular among alt traders and move sharply around major partnership news. Liquidation happens when losses eat through the margin backing your position. The isolated-margin estimate is Entry × (1 − 1/Leverage + MMR) for a long and Entry × (1 + 1/Leverage − MMR) for a short, where MMR is the maintenance margin rate.

Worked example — 10× LINK long

A 10× LINK long entered at $11 with a 0.5% maintenance margin rate is liquidated at about:

Liquidation price$9.96

Move to liquidation−9.50%

Because LINK can move fast, keep your stop-loss well inside that level and size by risk. See how to size a position and how to avoid liquidation.
