Where the number comes from
Liquidation hits when the remaining margin falls to the maintenance level. For an isolated position that is entry × (1 − 1/leverage + maintenance) for a long, and the same with the signs flipped for a short. In practice: at 10× leverage a move of just under ten percent against you is enough, at 50× about two.
This is an estimate, not the exchange's number. Real liquidation comes sooner: unpaid funding and the forced-close fee eat into margin, maintenance margin steps up on larger positions, and in cross mode the whole account balance enters the calculation, so the price sits elsewhere and moves with every other trade you open.
The table below repeats the maths for the usual leverage settings. It is the fastest way to see what leverage actually does — it does not enlarge the profit, it shortens the distance the position can survive.
