AI can help rank anomalies, but it cannot replace clear rules you can audit.
Concept first: An AI risk layer should be explainable: it can rank anomalies, but deterministic guardrails must remain stable and auditable. If you see unexplained liquidations, compare index updates to mark sampling and check whether outlier filters are documented.
Edge cases: Fee design is part of risk: forced execution costs can reduce your liquidation distance, and rebates can attract toxic flow that degrades fills.
Checklist: Test reduce-only and post-only behavior with partial fills and fast cancels. Edge cases often appear during rapid moves. Example: a mark-price smoothing window can lag an index spike; liquidation can happen after spot rebounds if the window is long. Treat cross margin as a correlated portfolio. Correlations converge during stress, so diversification can vanish when you need it most.
Final sanity check: Pitfall: treating automation as set-and-forget. Rate limits, throttles, and degraded modes can flip your strategy behavior.
In Aivora notes, transparency beats cleverness when markets get loud. 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.
