A lot of losses come from tiny assumptions: which price triggers liquidation, when funding hits, and how fees are applied.
What it is: Latency is a risk factor. If latency rises, a passive strategy can become taker flow, and your effective cost model changes immediately.
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: Run a small-size rehearsal when liquidity is thin. Observe how stop orders trigger and how mark/last prices diverge around spikes. Example: a temporary rate-limit tightening can cause missed exits and worse fills even without a dramatic price crash. Track funding together with basis and realized volatility. The combination is a better crowding signal than any single metric.
Common pitfalls: Pitfall: ignoring fees and funding in liquidation math. The platform can close you earlier than your stop-loss plan expects.
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.
