A major trader's ETH long position took a sharp hit. The account holder jumped in with $1.35M over the past day, but his position turned red almost instantly. Currently sitting on a $610K loss—that's roughly 50% underwater from entry. The trader still has $650K in dry powder remaining in the account. The question now is whether he'll average down, cut losses, or hold the line while waiting for a reversal. This kind of volatility in large positions shows just how brutal intraday moves can be, especially when you're sizing into leveraged plays during choppy market conditions.

If I had known this guy was about to take this hit, I wouldn't have been so calm scrolling through my phone...

1.35 million in a day, lost 610,000. That's why I don't use leverage—it's too risky.

1.35 million invested and directly halved, this guy's mentality must be really strong.

A nightmare for leverage players, this wave was cut in half directly
