AI can help rank anomalies, but it cannot replace clear rules you can audit.
Concept first: An AI risk layer should be explainable: it can rank anomalies, but deterministic guardrails must remain stable and auditable.
Edge cases: Liquidation is a path, not a single event. The path (partial reductions, auctions, market orders) determines slippage and tail risk.
Checklist: Test reduce-only and post-only behavior with partial fills and fast cancels. Edge cases often appear during rapid moves. Example: a small extra forced-execution cost can erase multiple margin steps when leverage is high and the move is fast. Treat cross margin as a correlated portfolio. Correlations converge during stress, so diversification can vanish when you need it most.
Final sanity check: Pitfall: overusing cross margin without correlation thinking. Portfolio coupling can turn a hedge into a trigger.
Aivora focuses on operational discipline: clean data, stable rules, and clear incident playbooks matter more than hype. This note is about system mechanics; outcomes are your responsibility.

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.
