How to Monitor Your Aave Health Factor
Learn how to monitor your Aave health factor effectively. Tools, frequency, alerts, and what to watch for to avoid liquidation.
Why Monitoring Matters
Your health factor changes whenever asset prices move or interest accrues. In volatile markets, your HF can drop from safe to critical in hours. Regular monitoring helps you act before liquidation.
Monitoring Tools
Aave's own interface shows real-time HF. Guardian Rescue provides instant HF checks without wallet connection. Third-party tools like DeBank and Zapper also display Aave positions.
What to Watch For
HF below 1.15 means caution. HF below 1.05 means you're in the rescue zone. If you see HF approaching 1.05 with volatile collateral (like ETH or WBTC), consider authorizing a rescue preemptively.
Setting Up Alerts
While Guardian doesn't provide live alerts, you can use Defender or custom scripts to monitor your address. The key is having a rescue authorization ready before you need it.
