Wait, someone break this down for me — how does a long position even get liquidated when price is pumping? That makes zero sense.

NGL, this guy definitely hasn't used leverage... The price goes up, but your margin isn't enough. If the maintenance rate is breached, you'll be liquidated. That's not surprising.

The leverage ratio is set too high. No matter how much it pumps, it can't withstand the margin shortage.

Ha, it's just that the leverage ratio was too high. No matter how fast the price rises, it's useless. If the margin is insufficient, liquidation still happens.

Bro, isn't this just a liquidation on leverage? The price did go up, but your margin is gone.

Bro, your leverage got liquidated, right? A long position being liquidated basically means either your stop-loss got hit hard or your margin was insufficient. Even if the price goes up, it can't save a debt position.

The leverage is used up, so even if it rises, it can't save you. That's how contracts trap people.
