I know we are currently seeing the fall of coin prices, and many of us may think to get out while the getting is good. Well if you need the money, I guess that is understandable. However if your in it for the investment, and you can hold your ancie pants together during the drop. I don't need a chart to tell you that Bitcoin is on a continuing upward trend, in spite of coin price drops.
Panicking and selling off not only hurts your longterm investment, but breaks the market down also. I know speculators that just made hefty purchases at high prices are losing,
Don't panic there is a way to recover the loss
You can sell your coin at 5% over Spot, take that money and repurchase coin at 5% under spot and resell. This way you do not lose your profit, you continue to accumulate coin and increase your holdings without purchasing more coin.
Because Bitcoin will continue to move upward in spite of a few downward spikes, you can't lose.
Try to convert business to accepting coin, inform them of BTC virtues, Security ( from Robbery ), Customers pay BTC fees,
Goodbye to Credit, debit and Paypal fees for businesses, and it is quicker and easier than using plastic. Most important, this money will actually increase in value if saved, and can be used to generate even more income through the sale of the currency. You can't do that with American Dollars.
