One hour before Trump's statement, a short position of 21 million (long oil, short Nasdaq) saw significant profits after investors added to their short positions.
According to BlockBeats, on July 8th, Hyperinsight monitoring showed that an address starting with 0xec4 had already established a long position in Brent crude oil with 20x leverage two days prior. Then, approximately one hour before Trump's Middle East statements triggered a market surge, a short position in the Nasdaq 100 was significantly increased with 30x leverage. Subsequently, oil prices jumped, and risk assets came under pressure, leading to profit-taking on both sides. As of press time, the two highly leveraged positions at this address had a combined unrealized profit of approximately $510,000. The return on the Brent crude oil long position reached 189%, and the return on the Nasdaq 100 short position reached 37%. The entry times were as follows: July 6th afternoon: Brent crude oil long position established with 20x leverage; July 7th evening: Nasdaq 100 mapped contract (XYZ100) opened with a base position of approximately 200 contracts with 30x leverage; This afternoon (approximately 1 hour before the statement): Significantly increased short positions, pushing the XYZ100 short position to 600 contracts, valued at approximately $17.304 million, completing the setup just before the news was released. On the news front, Trump's latest statement indicated that the temporary ceasefire arrangements between the US and Iran may have ended, and the market re-priced in Middle East geopolitical risk premiums. Reports indicate that crude oil futures jumped approximately 5% after the statement. Current core positions: Brent crude oil (BRENTOIL) long positions: 50,000 contracts, approximately $3.915 million, average price $71.8645, liquidation price $37.26, unrealized profit approximately $322,000; Nasdaq 100 mapped contract (XYZ100) short positions: 600 contracts, approximately $17.304 million, average price $29,108.44, liquidation price $32,119.96, unrealized profit approximately $161,000.
