#ETH走势分析 I've seen quite a few contract traders complain: "I was watching the candlestick chart, and the price was still a ways off from the liquidation line, so how did I suddenly get liquidated?"
Don't be so quick to blame the platform for scamming you. The truth is actually simple—the system triggers liquidation not based on the candlestick price you're watching, but on the "mark price." These two are often not in sync; the mark price might hit the danger zone earlier, or sometimes a bit later. That's why you might think you're "still safe," but your position has already been liquidated.
Understanding this risk control logic before trading contracts can save you a lot of money. After all, when it comes to liquidation, knowing the rules is much more useful than complaining after the fact.

I've been scammed by manipulated mark prices before.
