Can you please explain what auto liquidation crypto is? I've heard it mentioned a few times in relation to trading, but I'm not entirely clear on the specifics. Is it a type of automated trading strategy? How does it work, and what are the potential risks and benefits of using it? Is it something that's widely used in the cryptocurrency market, or is it more niche? And are there any specific platforms or exchanges that offer this feature? I'd appreciate it if you could clarify these points for me.

Cryptocurrency trading involves a significant level of risk, particularly in the realm of leveraged positions. One key aspect to understand is the concept of liquidation thresholds.

These thresholds represent a predetermined market value point for a cryptocurrency, below which the underlying protocol or exchange may take action to protect themselves from potential losses.

When the market value of a cryptocurrency falls below this liquidation threshold, it signals to the system that the holder's position has become excessively risky.

In the context of futures trading, BTCC employs similar liquidation mechanisms to protect its users and the integrity of its platform. If a trader's position falls below the liquidation threshold, BTCC will automatically liquidate the position to minimize potential losses.
