Liquidations

If an VIC long position is opened and the position size is larger than the collateral value, then there would be a price at which the position's loss amount is very close to the collateral value.

This is referred to as the Liquidation Price and is calculated as the price at which the (collateral - losses - borrow fee) is less than 1% of your position's size. If the token's price crosses this point then the position will be automatically closed.

Due to the borrow fee your liquidation price will change over time, especially if you use a leverage that is more than 10x and have the position open for more than a few days, so it is important to monitor your liquidation price.

Collateral can be deposited using the "Edit" button in the position row, this will help to improve the liquidation price and reduce the risk of liquidation.

When a position is liquidated, any collateral remaining after deducting losses and fees would be returned to your account.
