FAQ
- How is the price estimated?
- The move is 1 ÷ leverage, minus the maintenance percent. A long liquidates at entry times one minus that move.
- Will an exchange match this number?
- Not exactly. Exchanges add fees and their own maintenance schedule. Treat this as a simplified isolated-margin estimate.
- What if maintenance is too high for the leverage?
- The page says the leverage does not hold, because the maintenance already uses up the margin.
