10.11 This transaction is very typical. A major account's dramatic fluctuations within a week serve as a textbook example of the opposite—going from a floating profit of $30 million to a loss of $42 million, with the turning point right in that short-selling market.
Just looking at on-chain data, you can feel this kind of volatility: the position changes on BTC and ETH short positions are clearly visible, from the bearish signals to the eventual stop-loss exit. The whole process is like a trader's psychological journey.
If you followed this short position, looking back at the data, you'll find that the entry timing and position management of big players actually hide many details—whether successful or losing, they reveal the market's true tug-of-war during that period. The correlation between BTC and ETH also makes for an interesting case; the flow of such large positions often reflects the true attitude of institutional funds.

70 million USD in and out... this is what you call a gambler's mentality

Ha, how explosive must the mentality of this big investor be? From 30 million to negative 42 million. This turnaround is truly incredible.
Brothers who followed the short-selling trend are probably reflecting on their lives right now.
On-chain data doesn't lie, but the balance in the wallet doesn't lie either.
If I hadn't seen this, I wouldn't have realized how important stop-losses are.
Institutions' moves are really something retail investors can't replicate.

Oh no, another $70 million lesson. I'm truly convinced.

30 million to a loss of 42 million... This is the sound of dreams shattering.
Brothers following the trend with short positions are probably bleeding internally right now. Looking at the on-chain data, it's indeed devastating. Large investors' stop-loss exits are like hitting the accelerator button.

How angry must these big players be? They couldn't hold onto a 30 million floating profit and ended up losing 42 million. I need to find out who did this.
The trend-following short positions are probably all trapped. This market tug-of-war is really intense.

Haha, a $71 million roller coaster—this is the price of not cutting losses...
Friends who followed the trend and went short, what’s your mindset now? Do you understand?
On-chain data is so clear, yet you still turn around and lose money. I really respect that.
If you hadn't cut losses in time during this wave of market movement, you'd probably be liquidated directly.
His position management is really just one word—messy.
