Really sad news it happens. Don't worry if this helps you I lost 100% of LTC year ago. It was around 800$.
It is sad to lose but humans don't value when win only when lose.
I hope you get back on the track and press the pedal to the metal.

Trading with btc - eth, I buy too high ( 0,082 ) and today I sell all on 0,077. Before that trade btc - ripple ( xrp ), make mistake buy 0,0002150 so today I sell with price 0,0001200. I decide to sell all because my patience is finish. I have loss almost 40% from my money, my question is simple ................. stop or continue?

If you are consistently losing a lot of money then you need to stop. Go back to the drawing table and try to learn more. Figure out what you were doing wrong. Practice paper trading. You can do that here: www.demoinvestor.com. Try something like this out for a few months and see if you can consistently profit. Once you can, then give it another shot with real money. However, be sure to treat demo trading as seriously as you do real trading.

Stop at first glance dude. You have gone far away from this thing. First things first, no emotions in trading and second rule is NEVER LOOSE PATIENCE.

You have not followed anything while trading this stuff. Thing is very simple you have to create a strategy first and then start trading with caution. The first thing is know yourself where you have to stop. Also how much you have to invest!!

You just fall in panic. That's not a good behaviour. Trading needs a lot of patience in able to succeed on it. You can't just panic sell. Sometimes altcoins takes time to pump. I guess altcoin trading is not for you because you only want quick profit. Altcoin trading is just like an investment. The longer you wait. The better the return.

Did you trade for first time in your life? If so, this should be your first lessen. IMO XRP was very bad choice to buy because you bought it in bubble. And as I can see eth price is 0.09BTC at the moment, so you will need more patience when trading.

my question is simple ................. stop or continue?
To be honest that is decision you will have to make yourself and only you can decide what is best to do. IMO you should continue and be smarter next time.

Even if I lost 4O% I should not stop,there is time for everything.Maybe I did not succeed on the first start but there's a middle and last chance for me to succeed,as they say"try and try until you succeed".
I believe on that saying,i will not surrender until my last breathe,until I did not reach my goal.

You have to change your attitude while trading,first lesson is not to jump into anything when the rally is at the top,wait for a correction and grab the coin and if you have showed some patience you could have earned a good profit in ETH today as i rallied to 0.09 btc,never plan on disposing everything because you did not find any movement and as for ripple is concerned not a lot of goods news is coming from them,you could have hold your positions or sell off at the maximum amount it could get.
Yea it's pretty much all about a mentality change in his/her case. Always be patient and don't jump into just another coin. Even though ripple was profitable in the past, it certainly isn't anymore so I'd highly recommend staying away from that If I were you.

you should invest atlest 20% of you base money. when you loss 40% then you should buy the coin again in low price.. when it will pump 20% from your second buying sold all your coin.thus  you could recover your losses.

Can you see the latest chart of all of your portfolios? Can you take a conclusion about that?

The first if you are an impatient person, Because you get stuck on 0.082 for your ethereum, and you are feeling panic and the result was sold all of your ethereum at the lower price.

The second you must try to learn more to control your emotion. I'll bet if you're feeling panic at the dump or correction for the market has happened.

Try to look at yourself, dude. Try to learn more about how it works.

I can say you are impatience person. If you still hold your ETH, you already ended with some profit now because it's around 0.09/ETH.
I have no idea with XRP, when it reached the peak at 24k sats, and after bitcoin price falling down, XRP always stay on 9k-10k sats (You also could hold your XRP before maybe the price could increase again in the future)

Definitely stop, 99% of people will make losses trading. You are much better off going for a coin you believe in and holding on to it long term or until you think its lived out its usefulness.

Dont sell it.
If you want to stop so younhave to rest, walk to some place and comeback.
Push back harder if you can make it.

By the way, I push a coin and I use almost 80 btc and it is falling, I really didnt understand but I leave it and comeback. It seems it will be on my side now. The coin can not stay low, you have to note it that the coin can not stay low,...
There is no way that the coin always low,
even a whale avoid it. Trust me.

If you can not push it higher so the best way is to calm, walk to some place and pary if you can.
I like teading, lets make thing higher but not buble. If cypto is higher it will attract more people and real life/usage.

If it is not bubble it will find the right price and perhaps it will meet the best price and not so volatile.

Trading is risky. I agree that you have to know your capacity (to invest) in trading.
If you have secured/safe money to play then it is better to put it for trading.

Whenever the price is droping, it is the risk, there is an up so there is a down side.
From there is an up and there is a down,... you know that the price is impossible to be always at low price. How the whale make money?

The price should rise sometime (or most of the time) so the product/token can be traded and some margin/benefit is made.
I know there is also an option for short,... but short(ing) is not a best way, the best way is to have an up and a down.

Most of the traders experience loosing money and they do not stop doing this method, this is the job that they know that they can get income because much many time you can get earnings here than loosing money trading is a risky method and if you stop you are looser..

Well I don't believe trading is something for you judging by your decision making. However you should not give up like that because I believe a lot of traders have been in your situation. For now you should stick to coins like ETH, LTC and possibly ETC. Another key rule is: 'You only lose if you sell' so holdddd! If you had held your ETH you would be in profit today.

I think you must stop for awhile and learn to manage your emotion with your patience because you already knew that your patience is finish trading is not like that xrp and eth is both good for long term if you wait try to avoid and see your trades everyday to avoid panic selling because of price dump it is normal this days because of bitcoins price soar and have a big dump at all.

It is the risk in trading, actually you still able to make profit if you wait for the coin to go up, in trading patience is also one of the strategy, and the coin you bought is a high bolume transaction coin, so the chances of going up is very big, if you can control your emotion then I will suggest you to continue, it is very profitable when you know how to trade properly

Maybe you should look into shorting coins and tokens instead of going long.  Your current strategy will work well for that and will make you a decent profit.

That's a big loss, you should stop trading because it's not going to be profitable anymore. I think you're doing the wrong strategy, you bought at the wrong time. And should be if the price has fallen several times better to immediately sell it, because if continue to hold usually will worsen the situation. But it is natural and make your loss as a learning, it will multiply your experience. Start trading again at the right time, hope you succeed.
