On-chain data shows that a well-known swing trading whale, nemorino.eth, began gradually accumulating positions in mid-November last year. Over more than two months, they bought a total of 9,043 WETH, with an average price around $3,085. From the end of last year to mid-January this year, this position looked quite profitable—unrealized gains even reached $2.87 million, almost ready to be cashed out for a big profit. But what happened? During the recent market correction, the whale couldn't hold on and hurriedly sold 3,000 WETH 12 hours ago to cut losses, resulting in only $30,000 in profit. Currently, they still hold over 4,089 WETH, with unrealized losses expanding to $472,000. The reversal from paper gains to losses in this trade highlights the market's unpredictability—sometimes you get the direction right but choose the wrong timing, ultimately ending up with less than you started.

Ha, 2.87 million floating profit didn't hold up. Truly impressive.

The consultation records show that this fellow's strategy led to complications, with a floating profit of 2.87 million slipping directly to a negative 470,000. The clinical manifestation is a psychological breakdown.

Look at this data... Honestly, it’s quite upsetting. A book profit of 2.87 million just disappeared like that, and now there's a loss of 470,000. This is a classic case of "correct direction but wrong timing." Let's carefully analyze the problem with this trade: the position was built over more than two months, with an average price of 3085—seems like a steady and prudent strategy. But the final collapse was due to not maintaining the right mindset. A position of over 9000 coins is still too fragile in the face of market fluctuations. To put it simply, this isn’t a technical trading issue, but a matter of risk management and psychological resilience—having such a large unrealized profit became a psychological burden. The most ironic part is that you only earned 30,000 yuan, yet you’re left with a shadow of a 470,000 unrealized loss. How long will it take to reflect on this...

Oh no, this is a classic case of greed taking over. The unrealized profit of 2.87 million was lost to become only 470,000...

A floating profit of 2.87 million USD was not maintained. How shattered must that mindset be? I feel sorry for him.
