How WLD liquidation works
Worldcoin perps swing hard on token unlocks and headlines, so size for the move, not the candle. Liquidation happens when losses eat through the margin backing your position — the exchange force-closes it to stop the loss going past your collateral. 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 (about 0.5% on most WLD perpetuals). WLD futures list up to 75× leverage across the major venues, but the headline cap is a trap: the higher you go, the closer liquidation sits to your entry.
WLD liquidation distance by leverage
How far Worldcoin has to move against an isolated-margin long before it is liquidated, at a 0.5% maintenance margin:
| Leverage | Move to liquidation | Initial margin |
|---|---|---|
| 5× | −19.50% | 20.00% |
| 10× | −9.50% | 10.00% |
| 25× | −3.50% | 4.00% |
| 50× | −1.50% | 2.00% |
At 100× a move of just ~1% wipes the position; at 5× you get roughly 19.5% of room. Because Worldcoin routinely moves several percent in a session, most traders who last keep WLD leverage in the low-to-mid range and let the position breathe.
Worked example — 10× WLD long
A 10× WLD long entered at $1.5 with a 0.5% maintenance margin rate is liquidated at about:

Common ways WLD traders get liquidated
- Chasing max leverage. 75× on WLD means a ~1.33% wick against you is game over — and WLD prints wicks like that regularly.
- No stop-loss. Without a stop, the exchange's liquidation engine becomes your exit — at the worst possible price, plus a liquidation fee.
- Ignoring funding. On a crowded WLD trade, funding drains your margin every 8 hours, nudging liquidation closer than the raw price math shows.
- Sizing by dollars, not risk. Size from your stop distance instead — see the position-size calculator.

Numbers are one thing; watching real leverage get wiped is another. The live liquidations feed and the Rekt ticker show WLD longs and shorts being force-closed across Binance, Bybit and OKX in real time — a spike in long liquidations often marks local capitulation, a spike in shorts a squeeze. Then rehearse the trade with zero risk on the WLD paper-trading terminal at the live price, and screen the whole market on the futures screener.
FAQ
At what percentage is a WLD position liquidated?
Roughly 1 ÷ leverage, minus the maintenance margin. A 10× WLD position is liquidated after about a 9–10% adverse move; 25× after ~4%; 100× after ~1%.
Does the WLD liquidation price change with position size?
For isolated margin, no — the liquidation price depends on entry, leverage and MMR, not on how big the position is. For cross margin your whole wallet balance backs the trade, which pushes liquidation further away; model that with the cross-margin calculator.
Is this WLD liquidation calculator accurate?
It uses the standard isolated-margin formula and your exchange's maintenance margin. Real liquidation can differ slightly because of fees, funding and tiered maintenance margin on very large positions — treat the figure as a close estimate and leave a buffer.
