With the same short position, some people hold for two weeks and make 700,000–800,000 U, while others get nervous and close out as soon as the price rebounds 3%.
Here’s a pretty typical position: an XRP short with an average entry of 1.5023 and a current price of 1.2921, showing an unrealized profit of 250,000 U; and a BTC short opened at 86,195 with a current price of 81,656, showing an unrealized profit of 680,000 U. The maintenance margin ratio is 6,404%, so even at 10x cross margin, there’s no risk of liquidation.
The difference isn’t the direction—it’s position sizing and patience. Keeping positions small and leaving enough of a safety buffer makes it easier to ride out a swing; people who go all in always get off halfway up the mountain.
