AguilaTrades’ 40x leveraged Bitcoin short partially liquidated

According to monitoring by Lookonchain, trader AguilaTrades’ Bitcoin short position was partially liquidated. The trader had previously closed a BTC long position at a loss of $331,000, then switched to a short position, opening a 200 BTC short with 40x leverage, worth approximately $16.35 million at the time.

The latest screenshot shows that 40 BTC were liquidated at around $82,706.8, representing a position value of approximately $3.31 million. The event reflects changes to part of the trader’s highly leveraged position; the source did not specify the status of the remaining position.

Impact and points to watch: This partial liquidation shows that highly leveraged positions can shrink rapidly when prices move against them. The event currently involves only part of this trader’s short position. The source did not report the status of the remaining position, and the event alone is not enough to determine Bitcoin’s future direction.

Follow-up checks: Whether AguilaTrades’ remaining BTC short continues to face liquidation risk; whether the position size, leverage, or direction has changed; and whether more verifiable on-chain monitoring information becomes available.
