Liquidation is something I fear the most in my trading history, because no matter how sure you are about a trade, the market can decide to go otherwise. If you've only set a take-profit (TP) without setting a stop-loss (SL), you'll surely face liquidation at the end of the day.
A seasoned trader once said it's better to hit your SL than to liquidate, because you'll have something to fall back on to recover your losses.

A word of caution is enough for the wise. I'm sharing this because of a close friend who saw me trading a few days ago and thought it was easy after watching some YouTube videos. He bought XRP futures and lost up to $1,000. Ironically, he later came to confess to me, which was already too late, as his overconfidence had led him to neglect setting an SL. I helped him fight for liquidation protection, and he managed to get $100 back here due to his larger trading volumes.
Now, he's back to learn from me. What advice should I give him?

Always put stop losses and take profit that is the real answer, the real enemy is your emotion. If you can control of yourself you can win that is why in trade there is a term called fear and greed. You fear when minus is coming to your PNL but sometimes we greed when our PNL is green.

If there is an option stop loss over liquidation the best option is always to choose stop loss
