That liquidation threshold in lending is really... It doesn't feel noticeable during normal times, but when you're three steps away from the red line, your heartbeat suddenly gets louder. My habit is to not hard hold first: recalculate your position and collateral ratio (don't trust "close enough"), add some margin if you can, or simply reduce leverage first, cutting off the most volatile part. Gas fees should be watched closely at this time; when the chain is congested, a few minutes delay might mean "adjustment" turns into "forced liquidation."



Recently, there have been a bunch of testnet incentives and token expectation discussions, and everyone in the group is guessing whether the mainnet will issue tokens... Honestly, these lively events can easily hype up people's emotions, and I get tempted too. But the more these moments, the closer you are to the red line, the more you need to restrain yourself: pull the red line further away, and don't gamble on a potential airdrop to avoid liquidation. Anyway, I'll just do this tonight—prefer to earn a little less than wake up in the middle of the night to a liquidation alert. The red line, it's better to keep it at a safe distance.
