ADL Further Information

Sat.is utilizes an Auto-Deleveraging (ADL) system instead of the traditional “Socialized Loss” system.

Comparison of the two systems:

ADL

  • Resolve loss uncertainty

  • Allow traders to take immediate actions right after a deleveraging event

  • Inform deleveraged traders of their closeout price and size, and allow them to re-enter the market

Socialized Loss System

  • One risky trader can cause large losses to other traders, including low-risk traders

  • Profit is locked until rebalance or settlement in case of loss
