Earlier this year on CT, a guy shared a trade he took on BTC after FTX collapse. His entry was 16k and leverage was about 100x. He had held the position for over 3 years and counting even with that leverage size.

If I hold for 3 years the 'swap fees' would be huge on a long. Can you link his post?

It's not a prop firm or a broker type account. It was a perps position on Mexc and I think on binance too. He even added a new position on another exchange when btc was @32k and that was when mexc introduced 100x longs on btc 1-2 years ago and he used it.

I'm aware of swap fees which is what makes holding positions long term on either broker or prop firm account difficult. I know a prop firm that uses bybit and there are no swap fees for overnight position.

Btw, I've forgotten his X account but it was fascinating to see something have conviction enough to max long btc for years. Some of his positions were like 18880% and he provided all proofs then.
