Health Factor

The Health Factor is a numerical value that indicates the safety of your position from its liquidation point. A higher value indicates a healthier position, and thus, greater safety against liquidation.

If the Health Factor drops to 1 or below, liquidation is triggered.

The calculations are as follows:

Health Factor = Collateral Credit / Borrow Credit

HealthFactor=CollateralCredit/BorrowCreditHealthFactor=CollateralCredit/Borrow Credit

Where

  • Collateral Credit:

CollateralCredit=(TokenAmountCollateralTokenPriceCollateralFactor)Collateral Credit=\sum(Token Amount*CollateralTokenPrice*CollateralFactor)
  • Borrow Credit:

BorrowCredit=(TokenAmountBorrowTokenPriceBorrowFactor)BorrowCredit=\sum(TokenAmount*BorrowTokenPrice*BorrowFactor)

Collateral and Borrow Factors

Note: Collateral Factor should be <= 1, Borrow Factor should be >= 1
