Most platform comparisons stop at fees, but execution and liquidation behavior decide the real cost.
Concept first: Latency is a risk factor. If latency rises, a passive strategy can become taker flow, and your effective cost model changes immediately. Operational failures often look like market losses. Log your requests and monitor throttling so you know what changed.
Edge cases: An AI risk layer should be explainable: it can rank anomalies, but deterministic guardrails must remain stable and auditable.
Checklist: Prefer smaller order slices before changing leverage. Size reductions often cut slippage more than a leverage tweak. Example: small funding transfers compound; over several cycles they can materially shift equity and your maintenance buffer. If you automate, use scoped API keys, IP allow-lists, and exponential backoff. Limits often tighten exactly when volatility rises.
Final sanity check: Pitfall: trusting a single data source. One stale oracle feed can distort index and mark calculations if fallbacks are weak.
Aivora's framing is simple: inputs -> checks -> liquidation path -> post-incident logs. Build around that pipeline. 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.
