How Health Factor Works in Aave V3

The health factor is the key metric that determines whether your Aave position is safe or at risk of liquidation. It's calculated as:

HF = (Collateral in USD × Liquidation Threshold) / Total Debt in USD

HF > 2.0 — Safe

Your position can absorb significant price drops.

1.5 < HF < 2.0 — Moderate

Consider adding collateral or repaying debt.

1.0 < HF < 1.5 — At Risk

A moderate price move could trigger liquidation.

HF < 1.0 — Liquidatable

Liquidators can repay part of your debt and claim collateral at a discount.

Understanding Liquidation Threshold vs. LTV

Loan-to-Value (LTV) determines the maximum amount you can borrow against your collateral. Liquidation Threshold is the point at which your position becomes eligible for liquidation. The gap between LTV and Liquidation Threshold provides a safety buffer.

Example: ETH on Aave V3 Ethereum

LTV 80.5%
Liq. Threshold 83.0%
Safety buffer 2.5%

You can borrow up to 80.5% of your collateral value, but liquidation only triggers when your debt exceeds 83%.

Tips for Managing Your Health Factor
