I just thought I would add this little nugget I learnt from being a futures trader and adviser for 20 years..
80% of the people whole trade lose money
10% break even
5% make money
5% make good money
Every single trader believes they will "make good money".

You should ask yourself why you decided to sell. You say you bought some of them at 2$. That indicates you have been here for a while, at least longer than I have.
Did you somehow stop believing in the future of Bitcoin? Was it just a panic atac? Try to pinpoint the feelings that triggered your decision and make a mental note of them, and be alert next time those thoughts come into your brain.

I sell/trade at various points because it lets me buy shit that my wife wouldn't agree to let me use "real" money with. Such as an AR-15, paintball gear, silver bars, kick-ass computer equipment, etc, etc. So don't feel bad.
My range of trading has been as low as me selling at $5 and as high as selling at $50.
I value tangible objects, but this current roller-coaster ride has me in a holding pattern at the moment.
I bought bitcoins twice: first time for $4.5 second time for $11 in last december. And I would not sell it untill $500 for BTC because after popularisation their price will grow up dramatically.
That's an understatement. It's used by people all over the world, if it gets to just 1% usage the price of a single bit coin could go up to 10k, and considering the state of fiat currencies today, an alternative could become very appealing to a lot of people.

I'm just waiting to go below $65 before buying back what I accidentally sold.
I went to sleep and forgot I had a sell order at $75. Bad wake up finding my coins gone
Now I hope for a little dip to $60 or below and I can get rid of those nasty dollars waiting there

If It goes to 60$ or lower I'm going all in. Right now I don't have coins again.
I just feel bad without bitcoins, so I will buy them, put in cold storage, and stop staring at the chart 24 hours a day.

I sold one hundred at 27$ not a long time ago. That's worst when you see them scale up to 266$
I sold 150 at 7... lost 50 on bitcoinica, and lost 40 on satoshidice... I hate myself...
If you are going to sell. Sell in small increments over time. Not all at once.
If you average your price over months you will get a better deal more than likely.

It's still all completely proportionate. You're just spreading your risk I guess..

Seems like the 90's were a double top! 5K Sell Wall at 92.
Sell, Sell, Sell! Buy back at 70 and profit!
Sell, Sell, Sell! Buy back at 70 and profit!
What wall?
Indeed it's gone, someone playing with walls and immediately pulling them.
Still I'm not convinced on it breaking 100.

You guys have no idea how bad I am feeling right now.
anyone here has done mistakes concerning btc. there are so many possiblities, and having not taken most of them feels like a mistake also. we should credit the guy for sharing this with us. what he did could have been just the right thing, but it wasn´t. it can happen to anyone of us. we should establish a respectful discussion on mistakes like this one.
