Most retail traders get liquidated not on the breakdown, but when they try chasing green candles right into someone else's exit liquidity.
Seeing massive unrealized gains plastered on your feed makes it feel like free money, but holding onto leveraged longs at the top is how accounts get wiped out fast.
Just looked at recent position data showing top profitable traders sitting on over +11,308.99 in unrealized profit from an open $APT long as the token pushed up +5.38%. While screenshots like that trigger pure FOMO, unrealized numbers mean absolutely nothing until that position is closed.
When big accounts hold heavy exposure on $APT alongside correlated moves in $BTC, they need serious liquidity to take profits without crashing the order book. Late buyers jumping in after the move has already played out usually become the liquidity that funds those massive exits.
Are you actively taking profits on this pump, or holding through the volatility?
