Solana Liquidation Price Calculator
Estimate a simplified Solana long or short liquidation-price threshold from an entered opening price, position quantity, isolated margin, maintenance rate and fee reserve.
How the simplified Solana liquidation price is modeled
Opening notional = entry price × SOL per quantity unit × entered quantity × conversion
Modeled threshold = opening notional × (maintenance rate + liquidation-fee rate)
Sustainable loss = initial isolated margin + added margin − modeled threshold
Adverse price distance = sustainable loss ÷ (SOL per quantity unit × entered quantity × conversion)
Long estimate = entry price − adverse distance; short estimate = entry price + adverse distance
Every value is entered manually. Verify the exact broker-server symbol, account, direction, unit and schedule before relying on the arithmetic.
Enter one isolated Solana liquidation scenario
Use this only for a simplified linear, quote-currency-settled scenario. The venue estimate remains authoritative because mark price, tiers, fees, funding and account state can move the threshold.

How the simplified Solana liquidation price is modeled
Modeled threshold = opening notional × (maintenance rate + liquidation-fee rate)
Sustainable loss = initial isolated margin + added margin − modeled threshold
Adverse price distance = sustainable loss ÷ (SOL per quantity unit × entered quantity × conversion)
Long estimate = entry price − adverse distance; short estimate = entry price + adverse distance
The model treats the entered position as linear and quote-currency settled, with a fixed threshold derived from opening notional. It is transparent stress arithmetic, not a reproduction of a venue risk or liquidation engine.
Bybit documentation shows that actual liquidation can depend on mark price, maintenance margin, position tier, fees and whether margin is isolated, cross or portfolio based. Cross-account balances, other positions, funding and fee deductions can make a displayed estimate dynamic.
The page does not choose a safe liquidation distance or imply that a forced close occurs at the displayed number. Market gaps, liquidity, execution and formula changes can alter a realized close.
A careful Solana liquidation workflow
- Confirm that the product is linear and identify whether the account uses isolated, cross or portfolio margin.
- Record the exact position quantity, unit convention, opening price, isolated margin and any added margin.
- Copy the current maintenance tier and any liquidation fee reserve from authoritative product terms.
- Calculate the simplified scenario, then compare every assumption with the live order or position screen.
- Recheck after any price, size, margin, tier, funding, fee or cross-account balance changes.
- Set risk limits independently; liquidation is not a substitute for planned exit and loss control.
Audited worked example
The audited long example uses an entry of USD 200, 10 entered quantity units at 1 SOL per unit, USD-to-USD conversion 1, USD 400 isolated margin, no added margin, 5% maintenance rate and 0.5% fee reserve. Opening notional is USD 2,000; modeled threshold is USD 110; sustainable loss is USD 290; adverse distance is USD 29; and the simplified long estimate is USD 171, or 14.5% below entry. With the same inputs, the short estimate is USD 229.
How to interpret it
USD 171 is a simplified entered scenario, not an exchange or broker liquidation price. Compare it with the live position screen and product formula, and never use the output as a substitute for a stop-loss or risk limit.
Solana margin, funding or financing, and liquidation answer different questions
Required margin is the entered collateral estimate for opening exposure. Funding or financing is a separately entered debit or credit for carrying a position across a product-defined event. Liquidation price is a simplified adverse-price threshold under entered isolated-position assumptions. None of these figures is a stop-loss recommendation, maximum-loss guarantee or live broker value.
| Amount | Primary driver | Timing | Not equivalent to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Required margin | Contract, price and entered margin convention | Opening and while exposure remains | Maximum loss or liquidation price |
| Funding or financing | Signed rate, rate unit and schedule weight | Each qualifying product-defined funding or financing event | Price P/L or opening margin |
| Liquidation threshold | Direction, isolated margin and entered maintenance assumptions | Modeled adverse price movement | Exchange or broker execution price |

Keep the three calculations separate until they use the same exact symbol, contract size, account currency and product rules. A broker CFD can use daily financing, while a crypto perpetual can use periodic funding and a venue-specific mark-price liquidation engine.
Assumptions and limits
- No exchange, broker, account, mark price, index price or liquidation engine is connected.
- Only a simplified linear, quote-currency-settled, isolated-position scenario is modeled.
- Maintenance is applied to opening notional; moving mark-price notional and tier migration are excluded.
- Cross margin, portfolio margin, other positions, unrealized P/L, funding and fee deductions are excluded.
- The actual trigger and execution price can differ because provider rules, liquidity and market gaps change.
- The output is educational stress arithmetic, not a stop-loss, safe-leverage label or financial advice.
Where to verify Solana product inputs
Open the specification for the exact symbol on the same broker server and account type. Record calculation mode, trade contract size, tick size and value, quote or profit currency, initial margin, margin rate, swap mode, signed long and short swap values, daily rollover multipliers and any product expiration. MetaQuotes documents the available properties; the broker supplies their current values.
Determine whether the product is a broker CFD, perpetual contract, dated future or another derivative. Verify its contract unit, margin tiers, maintenance threshold, fee reserve, funding or rollover schedule, price basis and liquidation reference. SOLUSD, SOL/USD and Solana labels do not prove identical terms. For liquidation, use the venue’s current order or position screen as authoritative because mark price, maintenance tiers, cross-margin balances, fees and funding can move the actual threshold.
For a completed trade, the broker statement is authoritative for account activity. Reconcile each debit or credit using confirmed position size, rate unit, event time and conversion. The calculator is designed to expose assumptions and support that reconciliation; it cannot replace the contractual product terms or determine tax and legal treatment.
Frequently asked questions
- Subtract the entered maintenance and fee threshold from total isolated margin, convert remaining loss capacity into an adverse price distance, then subtract for long or add for short.
- Not necessarily. Actual engines can use mark price, moving notional, maintenance tiers, fees, funding and provider-specific formulas. The live position screen is authoritative.
- No. It models one isolated linear scenario. Cross-account balances, portfolio offsets, other positions and shared equity are excluded.
- Liquidation can be triggered before isolated margin reaches zero. The entered rate creates a disclosed threshold reserve in this simplified model.
- It increases the entered isolated margin pool and widens modeled adverse price distance without claiming a venue will apply it identically.
- No. Liquidation is a provider risk-control process. A planned stop is a separate order that can experience gaps, slippage or failed execution.
- Yes. Trigger reference, liquidity, market gaps, fees and execution can make the realized close different from this scenario or a displayed venue estimate.
- No. It reports entered arithmetic only and does not assess suitability, acceptable loss or legal product availability.
