Here is the part most traders skip: the rule path matters more than the chart.
Concept first: 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.
Edge cases: An AI risk layer should be explainable: it can rank anomalies, but deterministic guardrails must remain stable and auditable.
Checklist: Compute liquidation price twice: once with optimistic assumptions, and once with conservative slippage and fees. The gap is your uncertainty budget. Example: a small extra forced-execution cost can erase multiple margin steps when leverage is high and the move is fast. If you automate, use scoped API keys, IP allow-lists, and exponential backoff. Limits often tighten exactly when volatility rises.
Final sanity check: Pitfall: treating automation as set-and-forget. Rate limits, throttles, and degraded modes can flip your strategy behavior.
Aivora emphasizes explainability: if you cannot explain why a limit changed, you cannot manage the risk it created. This is educational content about mechanics, not financial advice.

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.
