How Does the ‘Liquidation Price’ Change with Varying Leverage Levels?
The liquidation price is the price at which a position's losses fully deplete the initial margin and reach the maintenance margin level. Higher leverage means a smaller margin is used to control a larger position.
Consequently, the liquidation price is much closer to the entry price with high leverage. Lower leverage, conversely, provides a wider buffer, pushing the liquidation price further away from the entry price.
