... never sell at loss....

this is the main reason why we currently have people who have lost more than 90% of their investment. first because they were newbies who had no idea how investment works and second because people like you have been encouraging them to continue holding even though they were losing money!
Look at very first line i mentioned, do proper research before investment.  Smiley

Always show people the other side of the story as well.

exactly.
unfortunately as of late bitcointalk has turned into a place to encourage newbies to become bag holders. there are at least a dozen topics each week (specially during dumps) that is telling newbies to hold, don't sell, have "patience", ... and all this time those who listened have been losing a lot of money!

The other side of the story:

This is Jill

Bill loves Cryptocurrency

Bill bought his favorite coin at $15, hoping to sell for $100

The next day it dropped to $8.5

Jill thought everything was OK that it will get back to higher price.

Jill decided to sell if price gets to $10.

Jill's token is now worth $7.

Don't be like Jill.

In these bearish days, you only have two options: whether you'll wait for the next dip even how long it takes in order to avoid losses or investing now despite of the loss, hodl while the price still goes up and cash out when you finally recover your investment with additional good profits. Actually, there's nothing wrong whatever you choose from those two options just only make sure that it suits to your current status. If you have a lot of time for waiting then go for the first option but if you are afraid of missing the boat and always in a hurry then do the risk — go with the latter option.
