How to Avoid Aave Liquidation
Comprehensive guide to avoiding Aave liquidation on Polygon. Monitoring strategies, collateral management, and when to use Guardian Rescue.
Maintain a Safe Health Factor
Keep your HF above 1.5 for volatile positions and above 1.3 for stable ones. The extra buffer protects against sudden price movements and interest accrual.
Monitor Regularly
Check your position daily during volatile markets. Use Guardian Rescue's instant checker or Aave's UI. Set calendar reminders if needed.
Add Collateral Early
At the first sign of trouble (HF dropping below 1.3), add collateral if possible. The earlier you act, the less you need to add.
Authorize a Rescue Before You Need It
The best time to sign a rescue authorization is when your HF is between 1.05 and 1.15. That way, if you can't add collateral in time, the runner can execute automatically.
