On October 11, the crypto assets market experienced an epic big dump (see "1011 Night of Terror: Crypto Market Instant Fall, 20 Billion Dollars Vanished").
Although the market has shown signs of recovery, discussions surrounding massive liquidations and various perpetual contract exchanges have not cooled down, especially after Hyperliquid confirmed that it executed the "Automatic Deleveraging" (ADL) mechanism for the first time since its operation began two years ago, making ADL a focal point of market discussions.
What exactly is ADL? Why are my profitable positions being automatically reduced or even liquidated? Doug Colkitt, the founder of Ambient Finance, recently provided a simple and detailed explanation of this mechanism on his personal X.
