We propose a new method to constrain the location of microlensing objects using EAGLE (Extremely Amplified Gravitational LEnsing) events. We have estimated the rate of EAGLE events by taking the finite-source effect in to account. We found that the EAGLE event rate for using a 1-m class telescope w hose limiting magnitude is $V \sim 21$ is the same as or higher than that of the ordinary microlensing events which have been found to date. We have also found that the fraction of transit EAGLE events is large enough to detect: between $4 \sim 80 % $ depending on the lens location. Since the lens proper motion can be measured for a transit event, one can distinguish whether the lens is a MACHO (MAssive Compact Halo Object) in our hal o or one of the known stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) from the proper motion measurement for each transit EAGLE event. Moreover, we show that the fraction of transit EAGLEs in all EAGLE events signif icantly depends on the lensing locations: the transit EAGLE fraction for the sel f-lensing case is $2 \sim 15$ times larger than that for halo MACHOs. Thus, one can constrain the location of lens objects by the statistics of the tr ansit events fraction. We show that we can reasonably expect $0 \sim 6$ transit events out of 21 EAGLE events in 3 years. We can also constrain the lens population properties at a gre ater than 99% confidence level depending on the number of transit events de tected. We also present the duration of EAGLE events, and show how an hourly ob servational mode is more suitable for an EAGLE event search program.
