Another leverage liquidation tragedy unfolds. A well-known trader experienced a series of margin calls during the intense ETH volatility in the early morning, with long positions wiped out overnight. This is the latest large-scale liquidation event since October, with total losses reaching $20.62 million, proving to be a complete loss.



From trading data, such high-leverage operations are most likely to trigger risks during sharp market fluctuations. Even seasoned traders find it difficult to fully escape in extreme conditions. This incident once again reminds us that leveraged trading is essentially a high-risk game—while profits are amplified, losses can also double.

The market is always cold. No matter how impressive your trading track record is, a single misjudgment can lead to catastrophic consequences. In the current market environment, it's even more necessary to rationally assess risk exposure, control leverage ratios, and avoid letting temporary greed become a permanent regret.

Over 20 million lost—that's the consequence of playing with leverage. It's midnight again, and another liquidation. How familiar this routine is. Greed truly is the root of all evil, no words needed.

Leverage is a double-edged sword; greed can really be deadly.

20.62 million wiped out overnight—that's the power of leverage. --- Big players are still playing with 10x leverage. I can't help but sweat for them. --- The margin call notification at 4 a.m. must be quite intense. --- Why risk everything? I really can't understand. --- This is the so-called "my stop-loss is set at zero," right? --- Experienced traders can still get wrecked. What does that tell us? Leverage is just a trap. --- The phrase "completely wiped out" is really fitting. --- Let's see how many people will learn something from this... The probability is touching.

20 million dollars went down the drain—that's the price of betting against the market --- Leverage, huh? Everyone's a genius when making money, but when it blows up, you're just a sitting duck --- The most dangerous time for the market is in the early morning; your account could be gone while you sleep --- Talking about risk control again—nice words, but when it comes to life and death, isn't it all in? --- Experienced? Please, the biggest fear in this industry is overconfidence --- Over 20 million? My goodness, how greedy do you have to be to lose so badly? --- Just looking at this news reminds me of that guy last time—the outcome was exactly the same --- Why do some people always think they can dodge extreme market conditions? Do you think you're special? --- Leverage trading is essentially just gambling; stop fooling yourself --- Anyway, I'm scared. I’d rather be honest and hold the actual assets
