everyone thinks top leaderboard traders have some magical edge, but actually most of them are just degenerates who size up way too hard.
we all know that sickening feeling when a leverage play goes red and you end up holding an underwater bag instead of cutting the loss. watching your margin slowly evaporate while praying for a bounce ruins more portfolios than any rug ever could.
take this leaderboard trader who just threw down an $850,000 bet on $BTC pushing past $90,000. ser opened a massive long on perpetuals and is already sitting on a -$115,015.84 unrealized loss in $USDT after just a tiny 1.96% dip.
that is the brutal reality of over-leveraging into resistance. when your position size is that bloated, even normal intraday noise can wipe you out before your macro thesis ever plays out. ngl wagmi only works if you actually survive the chop.
is this position getting liquidated or does the market bail them out here?
