MERL perpetuals — common questions
Answered from this pair's current readings, refreshed with the daily sync.
What are MERL's current liquidation levels?
Across the exchanges we aggregate, $636 of MERL positions were actually liquidated in the last 24 hours. Binance does not publish per-account liquidation prices, so the honest read for MERLUSDT is the realised liquidation flow above plus the long/short split in the liquidation-history chart on this page — not a map of where stops sit.
How much open interest does MERL have right now?
Aggregated open interest in MERL perpetuals is $3.24M: $2.04M on Binance (63%), $822.3K on Bybit (25%) and $383.1K on KuCoin (12%). That position base is -0.5% over 24 hours and +17.7% over the last week. Open interest is 1.71× the pair's 24-hour volume, so positions are being held rather than churned.
What is MERL's funding rate?
Binance settles MERLUSDT funding at 0.0050% every 8 hours, which annualises to roughly 5.5%. Funding is positive, so longs are paying shorts to keep the trade on — the crowd is leaning long and carrying a cost to do it. At that rate a $10,000 position on the long side pays about $1.50 a day to stay open.
Is MERL over-leveraged right now?
MERL's leverage-stress score is 0.018 out of 1.0, which we band as low risk. It blends three readings: how big the perp book is next to the token itself ($22.98M of market cap against $3.24M of open interest), how violently open interest is swinging against the funding rate, and how much of the book is already being force-closed ($636 in the last 24 hours). A high score means fragile, not bearish: it says a move would be violent, not which way it would go.
Has MERL seen heavy liquidations lately?
Over the last 30 complete days, 71% of the MERL notional that got liquidated was long positions and 29% was shorts, so the pain has been mostly on the long side. The most recent 24-hour total ranks in the 13th percentile of the last 90 days, meaning today is unusually quiet for this pair. The mirrored bar chart on this page plots the daily long/short split for the past year.
Is MERL's positioning changing quickly?
MERL's pulse score is 0.213 out of 1.0 — a measure of how unusual its current open-interest, funding and volatility moves are against its own 90-day history, kept deliberately separate from the stress score. The readings behind it right now: open interest -0.5% in a day and an unusually tight trading range. At this level nothing unusual is happening yet.
MERL/USDT (MERLUSDT) perpetual futures shows a leverage-stress score of 0.018 out of 1.0 (low risk), $3.24M in aggregated open interest across Binance, Bybit, KuCoin, a funding rate of 0.0050% as of Nov 2, 2026. These are diagnostic readings of market conditions, not a trade signal.
