Eric Balchunas Highlights Rumor-Driven Trading Risks: 3 Rules for Crypto (BTC, ETH) and Stocks

According to Eric Balchunas, he recalls spending a summer chasing an unverified kill-screen rumor after rescuing the princess nine times, only to find no outcome, illustrating the cost of acting on hearsay rather than facts (source: Eric Balchunas on X, Sep 13, 2025). For traders, this supports three concrete rules: verify catalysts before entries, avoid sunk-cost averaging into losing positions, and anchor risk decisions in data not rumors (source: analysis based on Eric Balchunas on X, Sep 13, 2025). These principles are especially critical in crypto where rumor-driven narratives can trigger false breakouts and liquidity traps in BTC and ETH (source: analysis based on Eric Balchunas on X, Sep 13, 2025).

ETH Leverage Liquidation: Rollover Trader Gives Back $9.19M; Position Cut to 4,851 ETH as Price Pulls Back from $4,956

According to @EmberCN, when ETH traded at $4,956 earlier today, the leveraged rollover trader known as “滚仓哥” had a maximum unrealized profit of $9.19 million. According to @EmberCN, as ETH pulled back, repeated liquidations cut the account to 4,851 ETH, erasing gains and turning the $740,000 principal into a $140,000 loss. According to @EmberCN, this case demonstrates how rolling leveraged positions amplify both returns and liquidation risk during sharp ETH drawdowns.

ETH Vertical Rally Warning: Take Partial Profits and Buy-the-Dip on Corrections — Guidance from @CryptoMichNL

According to @CryptoMichNL, vertical moves in ETH often see harsh corrections, so reducing exposure into strength is prudent for risk management (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Aug 12, 2025).
