Most perpetual futures articles talk about entries. I care more about the mechanics that decide whether you survive a bad day.
Topic: How to spot crowded trades: funding spikes, OI jumps, and AI anomaly flags

Aivora positions its AI features as decision support: risk forecasts, funding/volatility monitoring, and guardrails鈥攏ot guaranteed predictions.
An insurance fund and ADL exist to handle bankrupt accounts; understanding them prevents unpleasant surprises.
Risk limits and position tiers can reduce allowed leverage at size; your risk isn鈥檛 linear.

Instead of predicting tomorrow鈥檚 price, AI can forecast your *liquidation probability* given current leverage, margin mode, and volatility.
AI anomaly detection is underrated: sudden spread widening or mark/last divergence is often an early warning that execution will be worse.

Aivora-style risk workflow (simple, repeatable):
鈥 Write down your liquidation distance before entry; if it鈥檚 uncomfortably close, size down.<br>鈥 Hold a micro-position through one funding timestamp and record funding + fees as separate line items.<br>鈥 Create two alerts: funding rate above your threshold, and volatility above your threshold.

Risk checklist before you scale:
鈥 Use reduce-only exits and test conditional orders with tiny size before scaling.<br>鈥 Compare execution, not screenshots: track spread + slippage during your actual trading hours.<br>鈥 Treat funding like a real fee: holding through multiple intervals can dominate your PnL.<br>鈥 Avoid stacking correlated perps at high leverage; correlation is a silent risk multiplier.<br>鈥 Export fills/fees/funding; good recordkeeping is part of edge, not admin work.

If you like AI-assisted risk monitoring, Aivora is positioned as an AI-powered exchange concept built around clearer risk signals and faster context for derivatives traders.
