Recently, a typical trader blow-up case has appeared on the chain, worth analyzing.

A trader big shot who claims to be "Invincible in a Hundred Battles" opened a 3x leveraged short position when SOL was still at $125, pouring in 2000 SOL at once, equivalent to a position of nearly 2 million RMB. Now SOL is hovering around $135, and this seasoned trader is already at a floating loss of $22,000. What's more painful is that his stop-loss was set at $236.43—once the price breaks this level, liquidation will happen immediately.

This case highlights several issues. On one hand, high leverage indeed makes the heart race; the current loss seems limited, but if the price really surges upward, liquidation could happen in an instant. On the other hand, news of a "star trader" blowing up often stirs up waves in the community, causing many copy-trading retail investors to cut losses or shake their confidence, which could inadvertently pave the way for a subsequent rally.

Looking at the technical side, SOL's current situation is somewhat delicate. On the upside, the $142 to $146 range forms a relatively strong resistance level. On the downside, there is clear support around $128 to $130. From the order book depth, buy and sell orders are quite thick around the $135.2 level, with both bulls and bears testing each other at this critical price point. The subsequent direction may depend on who can break this equilibrium first.

SOL-1,92%

Haha, never losing a battle, directly giving us a lesson. Setting the stop-loss at 236 is really outrageous. Are you betting that SOL will never go up?

Haha, this guy's luck is really out of this world. The 236 stop-loss line looks like a lifeline.

Haha, undefeated in a hundred battles, but actually losing in all of them. Setting the stop-loss at 236 is just too funny, didn't you ever think it would turn out like this?

Haha, "Battle-tested and undefeated" has directly turned into "Battle-tested and defeated." The 236 stop-loss line is really outrageous. How dare this guy still boast about opening 3x short positions? Now he's on the verge of liquidation—can he stay calm? The 135.2 level is really tightly blocked. Let's see who breaks through first. Retail traders copying the trades are probably completely losing their minds. This is the fate of high leverage. No wonder SOL has been so volatile this week; it turns out big players are gambling to death. I just love watching these crash scenes. Finally, it's not me getting beaten up.

This guy's name is really uncreative, "Invincible in a Hundred Battles" but he was defeated in the first one, hilarious. 236 Where did this stop-loss line come from? Was it blindly guessed? Traders who follow others should wake up; this wave is a clear reverse signal. 135.2 How long will this support level hold? Who blinks first, bulls or bears? High leverage is like a lightning war, making quick money and losing even faster. Really daring to throw 2000 SOL, I as a small retail investor can only shiver and watch the show. Is the resistance at 146? Feels like we can't push through this wave, it might drop again. Once this news came out, the later retail investors all stopped losses, which actually gave the whales a chance to buy the dip.

This guy is really "invincible in a hundred battles" but doing the opposite. Only stopped loss at 236, almost got liquidated on the short, hilarious. The reputation is collapsing so quickly. Retail traders following the trend must be feeling pretty frustrated right now. SOL is just bouncing around 135. Who breaks first wins. Anyway, I'm waiting for the 135.2 level to decide the outcome.

The name "Hundred Battles, No Defeat" is now probably going to be changed to "Hundred Battles, Hundred Dangers" haha --- 236 liquidation? How loose is this stop-loss line, still want to turn the tide with a short? --- Following star traders like this is really a gamble of luck. Today they crash, tomorrow you fall to the bottom. --- 135.2 is tightly stuck at this level, both bulls and bears are testing each other. Whoever breaks first wins. --- 2000 SOL, brother, what kind of heart do you need to dare to trade like this? --- The technical aspect is indeed interesting, resistance at 142 to 146, support at 128 to 130, it all depends on how this wave plays out. --- When star traders crash, it surprisingly paves the way for subsequent rises. I didn't expect this logic. --- A 3x short position with 2 million, just imagining the heartbeat speeds up. --- A stop-loss at 236 can be so far off? How little they think of SOL's upside potential.

Emma, another "invincible in battle" has crashed. This time, the stop-loss level is too outrageous. Only 236 dollars to stop loss? I think he's trying to go all-in.

Haha, going from "never lose in a hundred battles" to "all lose in a hundred battles," this stop-loss line is set way too ridiculously. Wait, at the 236 price level, is he trying to bet that SOL will directly skyrocket to double? No wonder his mindset is so unstable. 2000 SOL short position, currently only a 22,000 loss unrealized, if it really surges later, it's over. Leverage is fun to play with but losing is super fast. At the 135.2 level, the order stacking is indeed thick, it feels like waiting for someone to break their defense first. Honestly, trading with such star traders is pretty unlucky; if it crashes, you have to take the hit.
