How this calculator works
01
Position notional, leverage, and margin inputs are normalized into a general cross-venue estimate.
02
Long and short directions use mirrored price movement logic.
03
Maintenance margin, trading fees, funding, and extra margin are shown separately.
Formula
The calculation
General estimate adjusts entry price by initial margin, maintenance margin, added margin, trading fees, and funding fees.Example
A concrete scenario
A $10,000 long at $50,000 entry with 10× leverage and a 0.5% maintenance margin has a general liquidation estimate near $45,250 before added fees or margin.

What this estimate cannot guarantee
- This is not an exchange-specific liquidation engine.
- Exchanges can use risk tiers, mark prices, insurance rules, fee buffers, and partial liquidation systems.
- Funding and fee inputs are estimates and can change while a position remains open.
