# Health Factor

The health factor is the numeric representation of the safety of your deposited assets against the borrowed cryptocurrency and its underlying value. The higher the value is, the safer the state of your funds are against a liquidation scenario.&#x20;

For each wallet, the LTV and Liquidation threshold risks parameters enable the calculation of the health factor:

$$
H\_f = \frac{\sum Collateral: value,\_i :\times:Liquidation:Threshold:\_i}{Total : Borrows:value}
$$

When $$H\_f < 1$$ the position may be liquidated to maintain solvency.

Depending on the value fluctuation of your deposits, the health factor will increase or decrease. If your health factor increases, it will improve your borrow position by making the liquidation threshold more unlikely to be reached. In the case that the value of your collateralized assets against the borrowed assets decreases instead, the health factor is also reduced, causing the risk of liquidation to increase.

### How to interpret your Health Factor

* 0.0 < HF < 1.0: <mark style="color:red;background-color:red;">Dangerous</mark>, borrower may lose collateral if the debt is not repaid as soon as possible.
* 1.0 <= HF <= 1.5: <mark style="color:orange;background-color:red;">Risky</mark>, borrower should repay part of the debt timely.
* 1.5 < HF < 2.0: <mark style="color:yellow;background-color:yellow;">Careful</mark>, borrower should pay attention and monitor their debt.
* 2.0 <= HF: <mark style="color:green;background-color:green;">Safe</mark>, the loan is at no close risk of liquidation.

Liquidation will be triggered if the HF reaches 1.
