How this works
Leverage lets you control a larger position than your margin alone would allow, by borrowing the difference from your exchange or broker. This calculator shows the total position size your margin and leverage combination controls, and a simplified estimate of how far the price would need to move against you before your margin is wiped out.
The liquidation estimate here is simplified and does not account for trading fees, funding rates or an exchange's specific maintenance margin requirements — all of which move your actual liquidation price closer to your entry than this estimate suggests. Always check your exchange's own liquidation calculator before opening a leveraged position.
