What are the conditions for compulsory liquidation?

Futures companies have special risk control personnel to monitor the risk of customers' positions in real time, and inform customers based on the degree of risk and force them to close their positions. When the risk degree is lower than 100%, it means that the available funds of the customer except the margin are negative, which is equivalent to occupying the margin of the futures company. At this time, the futures company will notify the customer to increase the margin or reduce the position by phone or SMS. If the customer does not handle it properly, the price will continue to change in a direction that is not conducive to holding positions, and the degree of risk will continue to decline.
