TRX liquidation map
TRX trades at $0.33967 against $13.10M of open interest on Hyperliquid. The heaviest modelled cluster still standing sits 6.92% below it, at $0.31615, holding $335K — the level where longs get closed. Over 7 days price traded $0.33155–$0.34400 and cleared $0 of modelled notional on the way.

The assumptions, in full
| # | Assumption | Value used | Observed or assumed |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Total notional modelled | Equal to Hyperliquid's open interest in TRX, $13.10M — one venue's book, not the market's | observed |
| 2 | When positions were opened | Spread over the bars of the window in proportion to each bar's traded volume as a share of its own trailing 14-day window, which is what stops a rising market from loading every cohort onto its latest bars | assumed |
| 3 | Leverage mix | Balanced, rescaled to this contract's 10× cap: 16.36% at 2×, 34.55% at 5× and 49.09% at 10×, once the 20×, 25× and 40× weights are dropped. As written for a 40× contract: weight spread across the range, tilted slightly to the middle. A deliberately unopinionated default. | assumed |
| 4 | Direction | Half long, half short at every leverage | assumed |
| 5 | How long a position stays open | A bounded life of 14 days, decaying in four tranches. Removed earlier if price trades through its level. | assumed |
| 6 | Maintenance margin | 5.000% at tier 1, from the published table | observed |
| 7 | Positions before the window opens | 336 bars before the chart starts are modelled off-screen, so the first drawn column already holds a full position-life window of positions | assumed |
| 8 | Drawn price range | The traded range was quieter than the ±8% minimum, so the minimum set the axis — not the traded range. 50.91% of modelled notional liquidates further away than this and is not drawn. | observed |
Row 8 is the one most worth reading twice. Tying the axis to what actually traded is what gives the price path presence — the previous version spanned a third of the price to accommodate 2× levels half a market away, and flattened real movement into a squiggle. A minimum of ±8% stops a very quiet window from zooming into noise, and in a quiet window it is that minimum rather than the traded range that sets the axis. Either way the cost is that low-leverage levels fall off the picture. Here that is 2× and 5×.
Leverage mix used: Balanced
The exact weight vector behind the picture, renormalised over the 3 rungs this contract's 10× cap leaves in play. The form below switches to any other profile in one submission.
| Leverage | Share of notional | Modelled notional | Long liquidation, % from mark |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2× | 16.36% | $2.14M | −47.4% |
| 5× | 34.55% | $4.53M | −15.8% |
| 10× | 49.09% | $6.43M | −5.3% |
Where the model puts the biggest clusters
Price levels still carrying modelled notional at the right-hand edge of the chart, largest first — $2.22M across the 10 listed. These are the numbers the bright bands stand for.
| Price | Distance from mark | Side closed | Modelled notional | Share of open interest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $0.31615 | −6.92% | longs | $335,467 | 2.56% |
| $0.34983 | +2.99% | shorts | $278,302 | 2.12% |
| $0.34945 | +2.88% | shorts | $259,430 | 1.98% |
| $0.31577 | −7.04% | longs | $225,398 | 1.72% |
| $0.34907 | +2.77% | shorts | $222,871 | 1.70% |

| $0.31959 | −5.91% | longs | $180,327 | 1.38% |
| $0.31653 | −6.81% | longs | $175,270 | 1.34% |

Where liquidation levels would sit if positions were opened the way the assumptions above describe — and, the part that matters, where price has already cleared them. The dark corridor the price path carves through the field is not empty space; it is the levels the market has already taken out. This is a model, and it is labelled as one inside the picture, not only underneath it. Every modelled figure here is scaled from Hyperliquid's open interest in TRX, which is one venue's book rather than the whole market's. What a liquidation heatmap actually shows →
How far price can move before each leverage liquidates — derived, not modelled
No assumptions here. Given the tier table and a mark these prices are arithmetic: the upper cap is where a short is closed, the lower cap where a long is closed.
| Leverage | Initial margin | Long liquidation | Move down | Short liquidation | Move up | Corridor width |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10× · max | 10.00% | $0.32179 | −5.26% | $0.35584 | +4.76% | 10.03% |
| 8× | 12.50% | $0.31285 | −7.89% | $0.36393 | +7.14% | 15.04% |
| 6× | 16.67% | $0.29796 | −12.28% | $0.37741 | +11.11% | 23.39% |
| 5× | 20.00% | $0.28604 | −15.79% | $0.38819 | +14.29% | 30.08% |
| 4× | 25.00% | $0.26816 | −21.05% | $0.40437 | +19.05% | 40.10% |
| 3× | 33.33% | $0.23836 | −29.82% | $0.43133 | +26.98% | 56.81% |
Where TRX's margin tiers step down
Maintenance margin is set by the tier the notional falls in. Above $3.00M the corridor widens, because maintenance margin rises to 10.000%.
| Tier | Notional from | Max leverage | Maintenance margin |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · charted | $0 | 10× | 5.000% |
| 2 | $3.00M | 5× | 10.000% |
What is deliberately absent
No liquidation totals and no cascade tracker. Those need an event feed, and every available one is throttled — Binance publishes at most one liquidation per symbol per second, so a sum over it understates by an unknown factor, worst exactly when the number is most quoted. The full reasoning →
