to begin with, Cryptocurrencies have never seen a drop like this.
many people are lying. Some because they are developpers of coins and want you to keep the coin to hold as much value as possible. Some because they are paid by developpers. Some because they want you to buy coins so that they can sell with the most profit o return money possible. Bulls will want you to buy more and hold more. Bears will tell you to sell if they havent got coins, and hold and buy if they already bought them, so that price goes up and they sell with little profit. Then, another time will tell you to sell to drop another time the price.
No matter how hard this guys lie. You can do your own research. never ever have cryptocurrencies gone through what is happening right now. The major deeps in the past where because of technological issues, hacking, very low quality projects, or massive sells due to massive profit.
Nowadays the problem we have is that GOVERMENTS AND BANKS want crypto to disappear. Why? because as banks get less money to lend, goverments get less money and debt bought by them. They need each other. Banks are moving the strings behind the scene , forcing goverments to crash cryptos.
I think very few people here will tell you what i'm telling you, because most of the people here are extremist radicals cryptocurrency fighters, that will tell whatever fucked up reason they can think of so that you don't think on your own benefit.
Bare this in mind: technical analysis says this scenario is the worst ever lived by crypto. Then consider all the bad news appeared, and the huge negative ones that are coming from G-20.
Now, my advice? i know the market will not recover in probably a year. i'm not talking about full recover. i'm talking about stable market. If you don't need that money, you can play a risky game and wish all will go well. my best advice, considering all, is to sell and do it fast.
A great comment, indeed, unique, not like the rest mates here usually write. I considered (ridiculous right?)myself a skillful trader, analyzed charts and purchased coins after BTC broke above 10.000$, "ending" the 3+ months trend, looking at it like at a strong buy signal. Anyway, I was wrong.
Just hodl tight yours & dont sell it if it not needed. I had same condition on my portfolio too, so in this dip like this the only thing that I do is only hold mine & off course hope it will be recover soon. Im still believe in cryptocurrency, since the trading volume are still huge, & everything related to it are still alive.
And how do you handle big losses in portfolio? Purchase more? Isn't going against the trend always dangerous?
I greet you, members of this forum. I closed most of the orders I had on stock market and purchased crypto a month ago. Right now I am down 40%, I don't remember having such a big loss on any investment I had before (portfolio speaking).
Usually, my stop losses come in before seeing such pictures. Should I close positions and reenter later or should I hold? I really don't know how to handle this crypto investment.
I purchased BTC, BCH, ETH, NEO, XMR, BTX, ARK and KMD.
I think that now it makes no sense to sell, the more so you have good assets and I think that you will still make a big profit.
I will take in consideration your insight, thank you Billy.
Did you buy for speculating or for the long-term investment, if you let your emotions get by this DIP, you are not in the right market. The crypto market is like that with an attack from every angle, FUD and price move with the emotions.
Crypto is here to stay, you lost nothing until you sell!
True that, you lost nothing until you sell. I am sorry if my first post sounds like it is emotional, it is not(maybe just a bit
). Speculating or long-term? Both!
