RIVER's recent market movement caused a trader's short position to be completely wiped out.

Entered at around $39, watched the coin price surge to $46, with an unrealized loss of $2,423.61, and a return rate soaring to -148%. This is no longer just a simple loss; it feels like being repeatedly rubbed into the ground by the market maker.

The most heartbreaking part is the funding fee, this vampire that secretly deducts money every hour. Even if you grit your teeth and accept defeat now, closing the position would result in an additional loss of $1,500. This creates a deadlock—holding the position out of fear of further rise and liquidation, but closing it would mean losing all your capital, leaving both options despairing.

This case actually reflects the brutal reality of leveraged trading: once the market moves against you, funding fees, liquidation risks, and psychological breakdowns come together to harvest your funds. What seems like a simple short can quickly turn into a financial disaster if you're not careful.
