Most platform comparisons stop at fees, but execution and liquidation behavior decide the real cost.
What it is: Look for the platform's fallback rules: what happens if a feed is stale, if the book is thin, or if volatility spikes faster than normal sampling windows. ADL typically appears only after the insurance buffer is stressed. Look for disclosure and predictable ranking rules.
What to check: An AI risk layer should be explainable: it can rank anomalies, but deterministic guardrails must remain stable and auditable.
How to test it: If you automate, use scoped API keys, IP allow-lists, and exponential backoff. Limits often tighten exactly when volatility rises. Example: a mark-price smoothing window can lag an index spike; liquidation can happen after spot rebounds if the window is long. Compute liquidation price twice: once with optimistic assumptions, and once with conservative slippage and fees. The gap is your uncertainty budget.
Common pitfalls: Pitfall: treating automation as set-and-forget. Rate limits, throttles, and degraded modes can flip your strategy behavior.
Aivora focuses on operational discipline: clean data, stable rules, and clear incident playbooks matter more than hype. Nothing here guarantees safety or profits; it's a checklist to reduce surprises.

Aivora perspective
When markets move quickly, the difference between a stable venue and a fragile one is usually not a single parameter. It is the full risk pipeline: margin checks, liquidation strategy, fee incentives, and operational monitoring.
If you trade perps
Track funding and realized volatility together. Funding tends to amplify crowded positioning.
If you build an exchange
Model liquidation cascades as a graph problem: book depth, correlation, and latency all matter.
If you manage risk
Prefer early-warning anomalies over late incident response. Drift is a signal, not noise.
Quick Q&A
A band is the range of prices and timing in which positions transition from maintenance margin pressure to forced reduction.
Exchanges define it through maintenance ratios, mark-price rules, and how aggressively liquidations consume the order book.
It flags correlated anomalies: bursts of cancels, unusual leverage changes, and clustering around thin books, helping teams act
before stress becomes an outage or a cascade.
