Recently, someone was discussing whether there will be people moving their assets before and after the upgrade/maintenance of that mainstream public chain. I’m more focused on checking my own liquidation threshold to see if the oracle might trap me. To put it simply, price feeds are not real-time; with delays, the price you see might have already changed, but the protocol still calculates its health based on the old price: when the market drops rapidly, late updates mean some liquidations are missed—by the time the system updates, liquidations come in like a rush to catch the subway; when the market rebounds quickly, late updates mean that assets which could have been saved are still being liquidated, and liquidators are picking up bargains. My approach is pretty simple: before big events, avoid opening high leverage, leave some buffer in your position, and don’t set your safety margin too thin—otherwise, a single delay can make you hear some “ear-piercing” alerts.
