$666M liquidated in 24 hours, 85% longs

  • Liquidations over 24 hours totaled $666 million
  • Longs lost $568 million — more than 85% of the total
  • Shorts closed for only $98 million
  • Liquidations affected about 115,000 accounts
Why it matters: The mass wipeout of longs points to a sharp price pullback and an overextended market on long positions.
