Rafał Zaorski’s contrarian strategy brings profits
Just two days ago, we reported on our website about the spectacular investment of Zaorski, who bet as much as PLN 90 million on Bitcoin’s decline . However, this risky move is not the only element of his strategy.
Yesterday, on Wednesday, April 17, Zaorski additionally announced the addition of short positions on Bitcoin and cocoa in the face of global armed conflicts. The speculator had a hard time choosing an instrument because on the same day the price of COCOA fell on the futures markets by over 8% .
In his latest tweets, Zaorski informs about the status of his positions. He increased his short selling of cocoa to a total of 5 million using leverage of 1:10.

Mixed Responses to Zaorski’s Approach and Lack of Explanation
Reactions to Zaorski’s tweets are mixed. User @mateusz_ry12529 compared him to the well-known wealth advisor, Cezary Graf , suggesting a lack of sufficient explanation of the strategy. Zaorski, however, replies that he does not feel the need to explain his actions, considering it a waste of time, because there will be those who will not understand his approach to trading, treating it as pure gambling.
At the time of writing this article, both of Zaorski’s positions – Bitcoin and cocoa – are moving in line with his forecasts, although cocoa prices have rebounded significantly today after the recent sell-off. However, the final result of the speculation remains unclear, and time will tell whether his unusual investment strategy will bring the expected results.
Regardless of the controversy surrounding his actions, Zaorski remains faithful to his personal investment strategy. As a speculator with over 20 years of experience, he consistently uses short selling in combination with leverage, which allows him to aggressively approach the market.
