You need to have more patient in trading and wait for coins because not ever price stay in low the price of coins always fluctuate that is what makes it a business.

It's sad.But this happens very often.You shouldn't be upset.Because it is not necessarily a beginner can do such an act.Many experienced investors lose even more.And all because of the rush 
Good luck with your future investment

I made the same mistake on siacoin, I could have made $12k. I bought siacoin in bittrex and few days later it went down from the price i bought it, I was angry and sold off at a lost then after a week, siacoin went up so high. I can't stop regretting the mistake.
You can't dwell on what could have been. Surely that's no different from every one here claiming they could have been millionaires If they bought into bitcoin from day one.
Hard lesson learned but it could off easily went the other way and made a massive loss.

Another proof that it is not necessary to rush to sell - and you need to wait a while and more often than not you will get a significantly cheaper price. Patience my friends
You didn't lose 80k but you just missed the opportunity to have the 80k. Know the difference. And yes. I think not holding for a long time or not holding until the coin really become profitable is a big mistake.
Look at price chart of ZCL now - it was just pump. And nobody knew that it will pump in early January. Anyway if he hold it will be more profitable even now but there are many stories of coins that were dead after pump. In that case holding sucks
A while ago i went all in ZClassic and bought about 365 Coins when the price was about 2$ per coin, but i decided to sell a couple of days after.
Two weeks later zclassic mooned and i could make about 80k now.
i learned my lesson in the hard way..

All of us one way or the other has experienced that, sometimes the other way around you did not sell your coins but the price dip and you are on a losing end, the best way is to move on and do not contemplate on your lost, this is normal and no one among us is perfect and trade without losing.
I think this is normal, but not all currencies are like this. You make the wrong choice because you haven't understood the cryptocurrency you hold. You want to avoid the same thing happening later. You should be more. Pay attention to observe and analyze the tokens you hold!
Bro i sold half a mill of xvg at 50-55 sats few hours before McPumpAfee started shilling it and price went to moon :-\stopped doing math on how much i lost after 100k$I know that i wouldnt ever manage to sell it on top but still it was a massive mistake-thats crypto for you,win some lose some
Engaged in cryptocurrency, we understand many lessons. You understood that you do not need to hurry. And I realized that I do not need to be greedy. I kept some coins for more than a year. They had a period of good growth. But I did not sell them. And now they are in a minus.
We can't see into the future. I for my part held on through the January bear market, because I was expecting an earlier recovery going down to 25% of my ATH. So what? We're already on the way up again. Just stick to your well-researched picks. Everybody has to make those mistakes. So you will learn, The coins will never come back.
Doesn't really make it a mistake, it's easy to say with hindsight. Nobody can predict the future so you just have to make your own judgments.
I don't think you're losing money. The best teacher is your own experience. I lost 3 bit trade in 2017
This market is not very predictable, and therefore many people who are not yet experienced enough in this all lose their money due to elemental mistakes that could have been avoided, so first get a good deal and then trade
This usually happens to everyone in cryptos investments, this is not a Newbie problem alone because no one can boldly predict the correct future price of any coin,
Therefore, we don't know what we happen in the next day if we sells our coins today.

You have to get things right when you are talking about loss in crypto market. Its possible to say that you lose your money if you were unable to get back your capital but if you get back your capital then you didn't lose anything. For the sake of clarity its not the best thing to say you lost your profit because you already have your capital with you.
Your not the only one, too many did this mistake including myself. Lesson learn, we should not listen to people spreading FUD. I know we are surrounded by negativity , so persistence is the key.
Assuming that is part of the process to success, the best teacher is your own experience. Hope you can learn well from your experience.

I think you need to be more patient and wait for the right price to sell the coins. But in fact you lose nothing because you don't have the coins when the price is high. So you lose nothing. Next time be more patient, you will have the money. Two weeks later zclassic mooned and i could make about 80k now.

We all have the same lesson. No one can accurately judge the trend of this market. We can only judge that it is important to have enough knowledge of this market. It will bring you more wealth.
