Solana Liquidation Price Alert on Bybit

this page models isolated margin: liq = entry × (1 − 1/leverage + mmr) for longs, entry × (1 + 1/leverage − mmr) for shorts. mmr comes from Bybit's bracket table for SOL, picked by your position's notional.

on cross margin the whole wallet is the buffer, so the real liq floats with your balance — treat this number as the closest the engine could reach you. estimate — exchanges compute exact liq from live margin; always double-check on your venue.

you're long SOL at $118.15, 25x, $1,000 notional. Bybit charges 0.50% maintenance margin at that size: $118.15 × (1 − 1/25 + 0.005) = $114.02.

that's $4.14 of room — 3.50%. solana runs about 2.6% between its high and its low on a normal day, 5.5% on the widest measured one. a 2.5% stop sits just outside that noise, and at 20x a single ordinary day against you is already 51% of the margin behind the position. funding at the example rate costs $0.90 a day on this size, and on isolated margin it comes out of that same room.

bybit's SOL table opens at 0.50% maintenance margin with 100x on offer, and that first step holds all the way to $50,000 notional. above it the rate steps to 0.56%, leverage caps at 90x, and that bracket runs to $100,000.

the bracket follows notional, so a winning position can grow into a higher one. this page stores Bybit's first 5 brackets for SOL and holds the last rate flat past them — check very large sizes on the venue itself.

bybit's book is deep enough that liqs clear in one print during normal hours, but it's also historically where the wickiest candles show up in thin weekend conditions — the 2021-era stop hunts were mostly bybit tape.

solana grinds rather than wicks: 2.6% of minute-to-minute movement under a 2.6% typical day. a whole session takes accounts out here, not one candle. $75M across 7795 forced closes in 7 days, none over 2% of it: attrition, not one event, split 61%/39% long/short.

forced liquidations are market orders into the book that just moved against you, so the fill lands worse than the trigger. and leverage creeps: 5x becomes 10x after a win, and each time you double it the room more than halves.

a stop only triggers, and in a cascade it fills into the same wick as the engine. the alert fires earlier, while you can still close at a real price or add margin and push the liq away. free, no signup.

on SOL the first bracket is not the same trade on every venue: okx runs 0.40% to $576,900 at 100x, hyperliquid 2.50% to $70,000,000 at 20x. okx is the cheaper first bracket by 2.10% of entry on the same position.
