Year on year compares the same quarter a year earlier (2025-10-31), not the quarter before.

LIN trades at up to 1000x here. At 1000x, a 0.10% move against you wipes out the whole margin. This ignores fees, funding and maintenance margin, all of which bring liquidation forward. Your actual liquidation price is the one shown on the order page.
