Definition
Binance liquidation price is the estimated price level where a futures position may be forcibly closed if margin is not enough to support it. It is a risk estimate, not a planned exit.
Why it matters
Liquidation can realize a large loss quickly. The estimate can change as position size, leverage, margin, funding, fees and open orders change.
| Driver | Possible effect |
|---|---|
| Higher leverage | Less room for adverse movement |
| Larger position size | More exposure and possible margin pressure |
| Isolated margin changes | Added or removed margin can move the estimate |
| Cross margin exposure | Other positions can affect available support |
| Funding and fees | Can change account balance and net result |
Common confusion
- Liquidation price is not the same as stop loss.
- A planned stop should usually be reviewed before liquidation becomes close.
- Adding margin is not the same as fixing a bad trade.
- The live estimate should be checked again after every meaningful position change.
What to read next
Inside Binance, treat the live liquidation estimate, margin mode setting, order form and risk warnings as the final reference before opening or holding any futures position.
