The cost of my portfolio for the last six months has decreased by 20 times, I'm the only one?) How are you doing, you sell below or wait, my expectations lead to the fact that the bottom is getting even lower!

Damn, i feel sorry for you man. It seems that you have selected to hold the most inflated coins possible. My portofolio is down only 3-4 X since the ATH value. I think that you best option now is to hold and wait for next next bull run for your coins to recover in value.

If it is 20 times lower than your initial price then you might have inevsted when the prices were 20x the current one for all of them. That sounds unrealistic because we never had that much prices.

I am sure you might be 20% down in the trend line and I think that is not much challenging as that is the most normal drop one can ever have. Gaining 20% after the bearish start is not big deal. I think you should just wait for the right time and then sell your coins.

I am so sorry from your situation but probably you invested in wrong coins and your money will never back. The only thing which you can do is try invest in something new what maybe in a little part will give back your money

Past six months is really unexpectable in Crypto platform so you should stay here and wait for one more month this will going to upward you hold for long term or it will go down you should exchange to some other potential platform. Many experts are said this year some big changes is possible in Crypto platform so better you should hold for this year you should understand the potential of Cryptocurrency.

It depends on what coins you hold.
Decreasing 20 times is too bad, i feel sorry for you man.
I think there is something wrong with coins you hold, you should find out and if everything is not good you can sell it.

Sell now after x20 decrease and you will be the biggest dumb on earth. You already invested when the market was in FOMO and unluckily somehow, you have been holding through. You have chosen to hold, and backing from that strategy now totally makes you a loser. Hold your stuff, come back in few months, years, decades later and you will be so much better than worrying about your folio. That is how volatile the crypto space is, but the fact that the market is low today does not mean it would be that way forever.

By the way, you may want to analyze the coins you are holding, and if you have shit coins in your folio, you may want to sell them off to buy in some potential coins at their dip so you can at least have a more healthy portfolio.

As long as you haven't sold the crypto currency at a low price, your loss remains only on paper. In any case, you need to invest with a time horizon of at least 2-3 years. Better yet more.

A 20 decrease as he claims means he is only at 5% of his ATH value. The majority of people are probably sitting at around 50% of their ATH right now. Although what you say is usually true, it sounds like OP has chosen some severe pump-and-dump coins to invest in. Holding these coins for another 2-3 years is unlikely to make a difference.

How did you select coins for your portfolio? 20 times is really a lot? Did you just invest in daily Growth Leaders on Coinmarketcap? If so, that was a huge mistake as coins often get temporarily pumped up.

That is really sad that it has gone so low. But at this moment I think there is nothing to do else holding. This bearish market will recover soon and the price will go up then hopefully. Just have some patience and wait till then.

Most of the hodlers are in the same boat as you, i know how bad it feels but we have got no option, if we sell now this will give us huge losses that i will not personally take, i will keep holding and wait for market recovery that can happen anytime so we just need to be more patient and wait.

sorry to heard that, actually it's not normal with your portfolio has decreased 20 times in last six month crypto price dip, may I know that what coins are you currently holding? Don't panic to sold all your cryptocurrency now, just wait for market price recover, remember ... "Hold"  ;)

My portfolio also fell, but not 20 times and 3. I try to invest in new good projects which in my opinion are promising. One such example has grown 4 times in the last week.

Yeah falling by 20 times seems a little ridiculous. Which coins did you invest in? Overall my portfolio value is down about x3 from ATH, although I feel lucky enough to have go into crypto before that big boom of late 2017 so i'm actually still sitting on a little profit when compared to my initial buy prices.

That is really unfortunate. But you are comparing contemporary market with the ATH of the crypto market. You can minimalize the risk by setting stop-loss. Of course, our minds were already on the moon imagining having so much money in our pockets that we would not be even able to spend it. The bubble crashed and people lost a lot of money, so I doubt that you are the only one. It is not the end of the world if you did not put all your savings into it.  ;) Indeed, it is an experience everyone had to learn from to prevent this situation to happen another time. But hey- we are still here and no one said that the odds will never be in your favor anymore :).

Don't panic bro! Just hold your coins. It will certainly increase very soon in future. Wait till that happen.

I understand this is really disappointing based on this may create some problem in market because people of investors are getting discourage based on this you portfolio is down because almost every coins are infected in market that’s why so have patience. Based on this after few days later the price of coins will increase.

I feel sorry for your situation man. I think in this situation you should hold instead of sell. Just take some more days before you do sell. Because anything can happen at any time.

Are you sure? 20x in the last six months. Oh my God! you are the best Crypto enthusiast bro
My portfolio also decreased almost 55% value of $ but I'm still HODL because I believe that will laugh at the end of this FUD is Holders

I think you can not be the only one who has lost money in that term. In my opinion, avoiding panicsells and trying to be patient is the best choice.

Yes! I also reduced the value of the portfolio, because now the market is falling. I'm draining some coins into the red now. and I keep perspective.

You're not the only one. Out of 15 coins in my portfolio, only two of them are at profit. Most are down 60-85%+. I'm so down right now that my only option is to HODL. I will not get rid of anything since the money I invested, I'm willing to lose it ALL in case this ship sinks.

I believe all my HODL'ings are good investment and solid projects so..

For me this stage, its all or nothing.

I think you have to review your portfolio of coins, down by 20x is too much. The worst coin in my portfolio is 10x down. Nevertheless, take some time to review your coins and you can buy more of the coins you think is good. With the low price in this market situation, your average buy price will be much lower.

My portfolio also lost a lot during this time. But I continue to believe in growth and do not sell

you are not the only one, there's a lot of holders that lose more than the amount you have, you must know what to do in this kind of situation, unless you're a newbie crybaby in crypto world.

You probably bought the crypt in January, I'm sorry for you, and failed to buy-sell, X20 you will be a very long time to wait...

You are not alone mate. My portfolio already in -60% which really is a pain mentally and emotionally. There are too much regret not selling those altcoins when they are just listed to an exchange platform and went up a price for 5 to 10 times. Lesson learned i guess and everything happens for a reason. You will not become a successful trader if you don't experience those exaggerated falls in trading or even when holding. Just keep those experience in mind and learn to discipline your self when to sell those for a profit and setting a stop loss point.

Mine had only decreased like 3 or 4 times but I think it is Normal but yours is 20 times maybe because of the cryptocurrency that has decreased so much value or you bought when the price is still a bit high not in dip. Just continue holding otherwise if you will sell now you can't recover your losses anymore. So keep holding.

You are not the only one my friend  :'(
Rest assured mos of us do really experience the same thing where we do see bloody situation on our own portfolios considering on whats happening recently with the market which is on really the dump side.For now thinking selling or panic cant be avoided which as an investor that thins will really come into someones mind but we should hold no matter what because selling on loss is really a big idea and you are simply contributing on decreasing prices if thats the case.

I can assure you that now almost all in the same situation. In all coins and tokens in purses lost in value in dozens of times. However, we know that this is a general drop in the crypto-currency market, and therefore, once the market starts to rise again, our crypto currency will again go up. The general fall of the crypto-currency market is not to be feared. It is much more dangerous to drop an individual coin or token. This indicates problems in a particular project and a specific coin or token and then very quickly it is necessary to decide what to do next with it. If the problem is not temporary and is protracted, it is better to get rid of such a coin or token immediately.
The current state of the crypto currency is good because after a general fall and stagnation, a decent rise in their value usually follows, which in the end exceeds the previous price records.

Price fluctuation is a common character for this market. That’s why some peoples are facing loses for their inexperience. i think you chose wrong coin. If you select bitcoin then it will profitable for you.

Haha, I am in the same situation now! In my portfolio I have coins like NXT, Ignis, Kucoin, Ripple and they are now so cheap. I don´t knowif it is good to sell them and get at least something..

I do not think that in modern market conditions it is worth focusing on long-term investment, because the market is too unstable. I myself lost some of the investments...

Well If it is so low then it will not be a good decision to sell it now. Rather hold it for some more. Sell when the price rises and you earn some optimal profit. Don't panic as this won't help..

my losses are on average x3, some tokens have x4-x5, I think that I can survive this and live up to the best moment, but if the losses were X20, I do not know what I would do.

The market are starting again to falling down it can cause a decline to other altcoin so if you really believe in your holding coin continue to hold until the market recover.
My holding altcoin are also facing falling down but I never sell them because in the future this coin can bring me a good profit.

As a coin holder, I also often feel the same way as you. Forbearance is the key that we can use to get through difficult times. This is crypto, the price can go up and down by many times.
