During liquidation, a portion of your collateral is sold to repay your debt, and a liquidation penalty applies. You can see details of the configuration on the transparency page in the app. Altitude's rebalancing process helps maintain healthy vault-level positions, but individual users are still responsible for monitoring their own LTV and adding collateral if needed. The section below covers a different scenario: what happens if the entire vault faces liquidation. This is rare and requires multiple safety mechanisms to fail simultaneously. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.altitude.fi/general/protocol-overview/user-position-health.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
