What is Crypto Futures Liquidation?

Perpetual futures contracts are derivative instruments allowing traders to speculate on future asset prices without an expiry date. If the market moves against a trader's position and their capital falls below a certain threshold, liquidation occurs, resulting in a loss of invested funds.

| Cryptocurrency | Total Liquidation Value | Percentage of Long Liquidations | | --- | --- | --- | | Ethereum (ETH) | $140 million | 78.40% | | Bitcoin (BTC) | $38.31 million | 84.98% | | Solana (SOL) | $27.88 million | 87.72% |

How to Avoid Liquidation in Crypto Futures Trading?

To mitigate the risk of liquidation, it’s important to manage leverage, set stop-loss orders, allocate capital wisely across positions, and constantly analyze market conditions. Taking these measures can help preserve capital in volatile circumstances.

The recent liquidations in the crypto futures market highlight the risks associated with leverage use. Responsible risk management and an understanding of market dynamics are essential for traders navigating these challenging conditions.
