OK so I bought ETH a while back when it was 600 dollars.

Now that ETH is 275 is it a good move to sell my ETH and buy back in? Wouldnt profit be faster when market picks up like that or not?

Please help me understand

I don't think it's smart, ETH doesn't have real, serious competition right now yet, i don't think that when bull market comes back, something will instantly take its place.

Should I hold what I have and wait till it its over 600 so?

I don't think the sell move is a smart one, i would advice that you continue to hold for a long term or buy more ETH at the price of $275 price and sell all when the price improves reasonably.

You should not worry, the market will soon recover, if you sell at a low price then you will lose everything, keep the hope and wait, all is just starting.

That is too much loss.
Better make a new capital. Buy ETH now and that might help cut some loss or it could be better when it goes back to 600 usd.

There is not much you can do about it since I dont see it coming to a bear again. There is a larger percentage for a bull run now. Use that to fill those loss.

The market will soon begin to recover and you should wait for it because you do not lose your money. Ether is a promising coin and after the beginning of growth, will win back its positions.

would of cut way before now if i was going to

hold

Much loss indeed. There were lots of articles that I have read that there were investors that losses huge amount of moneys in wrong bitcoin-moves.

Refer to this article: https://www.scmp.com/tech/article/2132695/bitcoins-plunge-leaves-recent-investors-heavy-losses

You are not cutting losses in that way, you are giving away your money.
You should buy more ETH at this low for you to balance the lose.
If you bought at 600 for 1 eth you should and buy again 1 eth at 300, then your 2 eth will ahve a value bought at 450 in that way...
buy another ETH for 300 then your eth value at first will be at 375... that is how you gonna cute losses.

I do not understand what you mean, you buy ethereum with 600 $ dollars and you want to sell it at a price of 275 $ then you will lose I do not think that if I am you I will hold it or I increase the amount of my investment so I when the price has started This is a low chance to buy the ethreum. I think the ethreum will rise again, because there are no great competitors for the ethreum

You have bought your ethereum when they were $600 and does it make sense to you to sell your ethereum below $600 rate? It's a stupid thing. Never try to do that I suggest you just try to keep your coin and then waiting for the next waves will come in the future. It would not give you fast profit just in short time and I suggest you to think for a twice.

If you sell your coins now, it is not a smart move as you tend to lose a lot of funds in the market. I would advice you to buy more etherum in order to average the price and have a better lower entry price. Keep buying the dip as it goes down and this depends on the cryptocurrency. You need to do this with cryptocurrency with good use case and fundamentals

I don't think you have to sell 600$ ETH, but you can now choose to pay a little more for the $200-300 ETH, which may be best for you. When you have to face a choice later, you may be able to make a little more choice.

No, I think this is a bad choice when ETH is preparing to recover. If you cut loss at now, your money is lost almost three times and if it continue to decrease, you almost lost everything

For me, even you have bought the ETH in 600USD before, but I trust or sure the price will rise in the future, this is not the first time the price drops below the 250USD, it has the many time the price growth after few months, and I want to say I have bought the BCN form @300 Sataoshi per one, and current price only @24 per one, I don't think it will rise more than @300 in the future, you are lucky one.

Personally I see everyone making long calls right now, but with volume low and the value of BTC hanging at 65xx I think this is the distribution phase that usually comes before the dump. See wykhoff method https://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:market_analysis:the_wyckoff_method It's a tough move to make for sure, but coming from someone who bought XRP all the way up to $2.05 Swing trading your way from crypto to fiat creates more crypto. I'd do it. We're going down shortly.

I think this is not the most reasonable manipulation.High probability to stay with losses.

Well I think mate it is not a good idea. Just hold your ETH until price will pump as high 600 dollars. It is not a good move to sell, you can't get you capital because you will sale in a loweak price. Be patient in waiting for the pump of ETH.

I agree with you to upgrade your buy if there is a decrease again then upgrade the buy again

The best chances are when you get in on the ground floor! ETH is too risky. Come help us rebuild Gamecoin and you can make some serious ROI!

This is not joke. We've got some of the top people in the cryptospace on board. This is going to go big.

Averaging is a reasonable solution. But I can not understand, it is important for you to buy ETH? It may be worth it to explore other altcoins! Diversification of crypto portfolio will be the best solution.

I don't think selling your ethereum is the best choice,
my suggestion is wait for the market to recover.

Yes, do not panic you, soon the market will stabilize and everything will be fine,you will be in the black, keep patience and wait and then you will get your money.

So you are buying high and sell low? then buy again it seems not a good strategy in my own opinion. i suggest to just keep holding and buy some eth again at the current price to lower your average price of purchase  I also bought eth when it was @320$ and with the current price i just keep holding but if it go below 250 i will add  some to lower my average price. I'm confident ETH can bounce anytime soon specially when bitcoin would start to recover.

It is a bad idea to sell your ETH right now. If you still have confidence and courage, I suggest you to hold your ETH. And only sell it when the price more than 600 dollars. Sell the ETH and buy back in current crypto market condition, may lead to other losses.

Don't sell now because ETH is near bottom now, think about to buy more ETH now cheaper to reduce the average purchase price. Or if you don't want to invest more money - hold and sell on high in the future because crypto prices are cyclic and we will see ETH more then $600 again.

if I might suggest you never sell and buy Ethereum again when market prices like this, it will make you lose even more, you better keep holding it until Ethereum prices will rise again, and even if you want to buy, you have to buy without selling your Ethereum with a high purchase price.

Why sell now and buy back later? Is that cover your loss? I don't think it's have different than don't do anything, I believe that a lot of investor their ETH buy price is higher than you , more than $1K, my suggestion is don't do any action, wait for market price recover and you can sell eth at better price

If to be frank with you. I think you should not trade in this market, because the final of your trading history will be sad. You should not ask what you do. You must have a clear plan of action and a vision strategy.

Only an idiot would sell at this price. Eth will be back over 1k by the end of this year and bitcoin will be back over 20k.  Whales are spreading fud and getting people to sell cheap.

I have decided to apply the traders approach in crypto investment, always plan an exit, Invest at a certain amount and plan to exit at a particular amount whether profit or loss, looking at your portfolio and it keeps going down daily cause some hypertension.. Just set my stop loss and sleep well

Selling ETH at this price will be foolish so the only advice will be to hold your ETH and wait for a year or two for it to recover. You do not need to worry about holding ETH as it is not a shit altcoin which will die off.

selling your ethereum at the lowest price possible and buying at the highest price and your expecting for a profit in the future? selling your eth before the price drops alot you can probably cut some loses but selling it now would be a bad idea the price is on the lowest right now just hold it till you are back.

If you have plans to buy back then why do you want to sell? You are only going to lose money in fees if you do that, an option is to buy more ethereum with cash, that way the average price at what you bought will be lower, as an example you buy one ETH at 600 if you buy another ETH at 300 then the average price you paid for your ETH holdings in fiat is 450, so you will be in profits faster if you do that.

What you have posted is a highly risky approach, for me eth is already way down and it has high chances of finding support around these levels, so i will not look to sellhere, i will keep holding till next big wave up.

There is no need to deny that the majority of people investing in ETH want to make a profit. choosing the right time at least slightly reduces losses.

Sell it !
Buy back , or if you have more bucks just hold your eth
don't sell when eth price so low.
buy more , then gain more profit !
patience is the key in cryptocurrency

if you sell your eth now, then you wont be able to return your losses, I know its hard and sometimes you feel hasty to get your money, but you will only get half of your money since its price drops, its better if you wait and add some of your eth holding as of now than selling it.

Ethereum is a solid cryptocurrency, I would advise you hold for the long-term. This could range from 2-5 years. In a more favorable market, Ethereum can easily cross your buy price, and fetch you some profits.

if the price position of Ethereum is as it is now, you better buy Ethereum. because in the next few months ETH has the opportunity to increase from the current price.

I think that in order not to lose your money you just need not to sell your coins now. Come back in six months and see how prices will rise.

One thing you need to understand here is that you have not lost any money until you sell your tokens, I know it is difficult to see the price very low, this is what they want you to do, sell low, buy high. Ethereum is one of the few good projects in the space forget the FUD unless you only need money

Although I'm not very experienced. But I can tell you for sure that you are not fasting fast. It is better to wait I do not think that ETH will fall to $100 early or soon the growth should begin.

I do not think selling is a very good and profitable move for you to take now, I will advice that you should rather hold it patiently until when the market recover from the fall because it will be profitable then. When the market recover from the fall, the price will still rise and you will be able to make profit.

I believe that now it is definitely not necessary not to sell not to buy the ethereum. Because he is now very unstable and there is no guarantee that he will not continue to fall. Therefore, I would advise you to just wait for the market to recover.

I wouldn't go and sell your ETH just yet. If you are afraid of loosing too much, then there is a good chance that it won't drop under 200-250$. You can also hodl until when it gets back to lets say 500$ and then sell and the losses are going to be smaller.

It depends on you, if the selling your eth and now and buying back now will make you money profit then you can do that but I don't think that is a wise decision, the price of eth is already at it's dip and I don't think the price will go down further.

I don't think that is a smart move, because the price has gone down half the price, had it been you did it when eth price was $400 then you could have gotten a good bargain by now, but doing it now, will be a big lost to you. just hold your coins and be patient

Only an ignorant would think ETH is good

Though is painful to experience any knd of losses, but sometimes, you have to cut your losses and moving especially if you have miscalculated from the start! It's better to live for another day of opportunity!

If you're planning to still do trading, better to hold on to that ETH. Ethereum will not let you down. Wait until its price is higher again. Bullish matket is on its way. Ethereum blockchain has pending resoutions on different technical issues. If these issues were solved, you will not regret holding.

You bought at 600 $ level, and want to sell at 275-300 $ right? Aaand what is a point? You want to loose half of your funds? And at which price you want to buy back? You think price will reduce even lower? I dont think so, at least, not very low. My opinion, it's better to trade in pair with ETH and make more ETH. But obviously do not sell it now.

When participating in electronic money transactions you should pay attention to cut losses. Loss order is a command used to sell order matching when the price drops to a certain level, avoid damage to the trader. Or, in other words, a cutoff is a command that allows you to sell automatically when the price of coins falls.

In my opinion, it's better that you keep holding it rather than selling it at a loss. Ethereum is the best altcoin today and is very good for long-term investments. So, keeping it in touch is a wise choice.

Won't be a smart move I think
 Sellingg it at this point will surely yield to complete loss of profit especially if you are holding huge amount of it. Much better if you will just wait and be patient with how the market behave. Surely, downtrend is not a permanent thing and it should give us hope that recovery will soon happen. The best thing to do now is to be patient and wait in order to avoid regrets in the future.

Stay hold do not take cut your losses be patience the month of celebrations is coming even ETF getting rejected from the SEC of US government i still believe crypto will recover, the market as of now are looking for slow pump.

The first question, why did you buy ETH, what was your reason of doing so and what was your term of investment, if it was long-term just hold if it was quick speculation, then fix the losses.
If you really came for quick profits with money you can not lose, then it's a lesson, for which you have paid. If ETH will go to $150 what you will do? And if back to $600, will you take your money back or wait for profits. Another possibility is to purchase more than your average price will be lower than $600.

Ohh this is so painful, I personally will do a cut loss when the price decrease about 10 % or less but in this case, the price crashes more than 50 % I think it's not a good move to sell and buy back, holding is better for now (I can see people here also recommending you to hold) well, it's very risky if you want to do that all I can say not everything always goes the way we planned, the decision is in your hand.

If you sell your ethereum will causing of a huge loss like the situation of the market now almost all crypto are down.  It is up to you if you want to cut your losses make a decision that you don't regret.

IMO, I think you shouldn't sell your ETH at the moment, the better option is that buy more ETH with lower price than before then hold all of them till ETH price will rise back to $1000 at the end of this year or maybe the early of next year. Don't become a panic seller.

I think it's good if you prefer constantly trading it. And I think it's better if you put it on low market cap altcoins for bigger gains though higher risk.

I think we get bearing market for now, oversold absolutely. Just buy it, but don't sell to hurry. Wait until next progress, you can exchange with alt crypto that has good progress. Don't like that to buy, you will get a big loss.

you can buy more coins at the current price.then with its growth your purchase will not be in the red. if you sell then you will have a loss

When the price reach the bottom, that's a chance of sharks. They buy more than usual. Do not panic! You should wait. You should find a real job to get money and let your investment come back to its price.

do not be too panic over situations like this maybe if I become you I will continue to hold until the ETH price is above $ 600.

For me I would rather hold and wait for the price to go back up again no matter how long it will take. I don't do selling just to cut my loss and later on regret the decision because the price went up. Be patient and observe things first. Ethereum is known as one major player so holding is the best option. There is no point in selling when you can't make any profit out of it.

I think ETH will go back above 600$ in few month. So If you are OK with holding the ETH, It will take some time for getting profit. But i strongly believe that before starting next bull run , There will be several price variations, So if you have time for learning about analyzing chart you will be able to get more profit than holding. But for that i think we need more knowledge and experience.

Ethereum won't disappoint you. Wait until the price is higher. Sheen mat is on the way. Ethereum blockchain has been waiting for resoutions on different technical issues. If this problem is solved, you will not regret holding it.

Have you not heard of the golden word hodl? Why do you want to take losses, when by next or two eth can easily surpass 600 again. There is no point in selling this low. You should have kept tight stop margin of 550 or something. That's called cutting losses. At this time its going down with the ship.

I think you better not sell That makes you totally lost you should keep the coin You can buy eth at a price of 275 and you can sell when the price will stabilize Long-term investing is very suitable for the current situation

repurchase, but don't sell your eth purchased for $600. because if you sell your eth at this time, that means you have lost 50% of your initial capital.

Right on that mate since ethereum is number two coin for how long now from then this cryptocurrency shown us domination on top 2 spot and seriously hold that position against bitcoincash.

For OP it is not good move to sell when you are at loss of more than half in capital,why not buy another volume again for the reserve profiteering strategy.

I did it once when i have huge loss on litecoin year ago,and instead of cutting loss i bought another volume and guess what?just weeks after i gain more than double of my investment so maybe tru considering what ive done

Keep calm and considered. The stop loss can cause great damage, wait for the market rebound

If you do that Ethereum will pop on you and you will never get back in and the whales will secure all your funds.  Your in a forced HODL situation right now or you risk losing your investment. 

I am sure that soon this situation will change, and Ethereum will be on takeoff again . So don't sell it by losing profits. Be patient and you will get your profit. Your patience will make you Golden

When you're down this much and only considering selling because of the price change instead of looking at fundamentals, I think you would not cut losses but panic sell.

Let me ask you one question: What was your N1 reason to buy Ethereum?

I suggest to wait till ETH will be $1000. It is not a good idea to sell at the bottom, and believe me, you will need to wait half a year, not more. An up-going trend will start in two months time.

I think it's too late to sell now because the losses have been too big, my advice hold at least until next year, hopefully it can recover or be better.
If you have sufficiently stable finance, it is better to long term investment and if you are interested in buying it again, look for the lowest price point

I don't know why you buy with that kind of price when ETH price is deep down for the past few months, but if you sell it right now there is no chances to regain your losses, so it is better to to hold it for a while because as all know that ETH is a good coin and like Bitcoin it has a capability to come back.

Do not buy just thinking that this is good time to buy. Take a look at the charts. Pay your attention to support and resistant of the market. Take your decisions according to them. Now wait to see what will happen. The price of ETH is at a support level now.

Captain obvious! If you sell twice as cheaply, then you will lose half your money. In your case, the best solution is to wait for better times. I think that autumn will bring good results.

Now you do not need to sell your ETH,and buy more at a low price and at the time of growth you will be profitable.

To cut losses by selling them now I don't think it's a smart move, I would suggest that you keep holding for the long term, then buy more Ethereum for $ 275 and sell all when prices increase.

Are you long term trader or day trader ? If you are day trader, I think you need set stop-loss for your order. If you are long term, stop watching the chart every day.

Of course you have made a big profit, even though Eth's current price movements are on the decline, but if you make a sale at this time, obviously you have made a big profit because when you buy ethereum for $ 600 you already feel a lot of benefits now
but it would be nice to last longer ethereum that you have until the market price rises sharply again

If you sell it at a price of $ 275, you lose half of your money, and that I don't think is a good step, you better buy back at $ 275 in large amounts so you can cover your losses with a small increase in coin prices.

There is no point selling it at this point because the eth price is so down at the moment, selling it off now and re-buying it back will make you to loss much money, I will advise you hold your coins and believe the price will go up again.

I think you should focus more on holding your ETH. waiting for prices to stabilize again, altcoin is experiencing a decline. be patient for some time to come, it will be better for you. believe the situation will soon improve !! don't despair and don't panic! thank you

Seriously I don't really think cutting loss is the best thing now imagine an investor that bought etheruem when it is 500$ now etheruem is below 300 $if he or she now wants to cut his or her loss I think it is too late already because the deeds have already been done, you just have to wait and be patience till the market recover again.

To shorten the potry need to expect. After all, the crypt market will soon grow this is obvious. You know that the fourth wave of crypt's rise will go. Therefore, you need to hold a little crypt and it will multiply at times.

I know it must be tired with the current market condition but at least you didn't buy it in Dec 2017, the price was above $1k.
For now, i think you should sell your ETH to USDT first to make a safe move because ETH could be dropping below the current price.
The current market is bad, but i still believe in ETH.

I don't think that is a smart move, because the price has gone down half the price, had it been you did it when eth price was $400 then you could have gotten a good bargain by now, but doing it now, will be a big lost to you. just hold your coins and be patient.

Maybe you should buy more ETH now to balance the ETH value you bought at first.
look if you buy not at 275 ETH then your eth value will be at 437.50 USD EACH.
this will be a good thing to do now and not to sell...

Cut losses at this point are unreasonable

Cryptocurrency market has taken serious hit in past months and I think we may be experiencing bottom in prices of major coin in the Cryptocurrency market.  It is better to buy now than to sell because your entry price will be cheaper!  If you sell now,  you will have a significant loss!

Oh dear. Don't. Please don't ever do that. You're going to lose a lot of your money. Just stay put and wait for the market value of eth to stabilize. Wait until probably end of 2018 and see what happens. Keep a close monitoring and make sure to grab the chance when market is stable

There is no point selling the eth because you are already at loss, as long as you are still holding your eth, you have not lose yet, you will lose when you sell of, So just hold your eth and forget about it until market improve

If you choose as an investment then you have to have patience in holding, crypto is very unstable it can fall low, but even though it falls in the future it will be able to increase again.

selling price in damages and enough in the past buying anymore? isn't that just the same as starting and bought our own money and started from scratch. It is better to wait alone at least to prices rise again. If you want to cut the value of losses then it is better to see condition too. If still has not descended far then it is good to do.

What you want to do it's too risky. It's possible that Ethereum won’t go any lower, and you will have to buy back at a higher price. If you really believe in the project, it's better just to hold.

I hold the same opinion as most people who have already given you advice here. You should hold the ethereum and wait for the best price for it. Moreover, this is not some unknown coin, from which no one doesn't know what to expect. This is eth which has proved itself well, which is used by a large number of projects and on which a large number of different products are built.

I believe that to reduce losses, you should not sell now and preferably not invest. Because the market is not stable and many coins are understated prices. We need to wait for the market to recover then what to decide about buying or selling.

It not easy to cut looses but we can only reduce it crypto is about risk let accept the fact

Do you offer to sell now the ethereum for $ 275, which was previously bought for 600? In my opinion, this is not a clever decision. Ethereum in any case will grow well in price, when the crypto-currency market will rise. Now you need to keep it. and to wait for his good growth. In any case, this coin will soon rise in price above $ 600.

In the context of falling trend, Ethereum also suffered from selling off as many other Altcoin. However when uptrend back it will also increase the most powerful. I advise you not to cut holes at this time

You don't know if it will go low, also most other coins also decrease when eth and btc decrease, so it would be risky. If you hold you may make lots of profit in few years.

Its better to hold your ethereum. There is no use to sell at 275$ price and book the loss. If you sell now its not guaranteed that you will buy back at less price if price rise aggressively then you will repent on your decision so the best choice at the moment is to hold your ethereum as its a high potential coin and it might be rise back aggressively in coming months.

Selling right now is a wrong move, the ETH maybe go lower but it will return. ETH is a kind of an asset that will grow, you bought it at the not so high price, somebody bought it at $1000 and continue to hold.
Selling now won't give you possibility to buy back enough - the losses are huge to my mind. You better hold!

I'm suggest that you're setting about 25% - 50% when the value lower than your initial value when you purchased.
Yes, cut losses is important in order to minimalize your loss because cryptocurrency still consider as volatile investment means the value can change drastically.

~Learn,Read the Pattern,PROFIT

You buy ETH when the price's 600 dollars, and you want to sell it when the price drops touching 275 dollars, I think it's a great policy to destroy your money quickly. All might know the cause of the destruction of the ETH price, was caused by a large number of ICOs who had sold their coins on a large scale. IMO, the wisest choice's to buy when (the price is low) people make a sale.

You can take a chance and sell your Ethereum now. But this should be done only if you are sure that Ethereum will continue to fall in price. I also bought my Ethereum at an expensive price but now I will not sell it. I am sure that growth will begin again soon.

You have big lost floating, bro. Just for remember for you that if want to set cutloss or stoploss, better when its fall 15%.
Now it has falen so far, more than 50%, so I guess to buy back now and calculate your Break even point or just take a little bit profit.

To save your money you need to invest it correctly. It is necessary for this to choose the time when the coin is stabilized but still at a low price. And sell when the coin is at its height

Holding your ethereum is the best thing now,  selling and buying back is dumb as you'll be losing some money off your previous investment but the only thing that's much better than just holding your ETH is buying more of it now that it's selling below $300

you must decide what you must do, but if it's me, I'd rather wait for the ethereum price to get back of the amount I bought it than selling it, you can also buy more ethereum today since its price is very low.

Keep your Ethereum right now and get some additional funds then invest it to the another alts. For me, i dont think ethereum was good to invest for now. Looks like its stuck.

you should makena profit to another alts, and hope it will recover your ethereum.

Ethereum is a reliable, but long-term investment. It is better to invest in a nkn, quarkchain -   large growth potential

That's an interesting idea. I assume that the market will continue to fall. This means that you can now sell and peresekaetsya when the price will drop even lower.

but if he sell his ethereum now, he will only lose half of his investment. its hard to see your money to drop especially when it comes to investment. ethereum might drop, but the possibility of increase on its price is also possible.

If you have other good reasons to sell your eth then go ahead. Then if you want to sell your eth because the market is down then it's not a good move. You already have lost half of investment and I'm sure you can take more losses. Always remember in crypto world its always unpredictable the price today is high then the next day its down. Better hold your eth and wait for the next bull run =)

Ethereum is a rock solid coin. It is not a good move to sell it and buy back cheaper as it can happen
that it recovers and you will not have chance to buy back cheaper  and you will end up with a loss.
It is smarter to buy more at price  $270 and have lover averaged price and better exit point.

to buy at this time should be highly recommended, because the price of the altcoin is now much cheaper, and will potentially rise again in price. so I bought a famous coin, like ethereum

If you sell your coins at this bad market, I think you can have nothing, except a big loss. Sometimes the prices can go very down and they look like they will never rise again, but remember that, the prices of the cryptocurrencies are always fluctuate. So, just be patient.

Why would you sell Ethereum if the coin is now in the red ?? Is it not easier to buy at a lower price to average your position.

Of course for me Ethereum has dropped and has a high chance to find support around this level, so I will not try to sell it, I will continue to hold it until the next big wave. And be patient and observe the first things. Ethereum is known as one of the main players so holding is the best choice.

Patience Bro, In late 2013, The price of Bitcoin went $210 in Jan 2015 after achieving $1000 in Nov 2013 . these are up and downs of investment market, time will change again. Hold, Hold and Hold with Patience.

In order to reduce losses, one must wait and hope for the best, and not drop the crypt immediately after failure. This is a market that has the property of falling and taking off. This is a long-term investment.

it will end bro ...; You better survive and be more patient and if you master the analysis of market chart trading, then selling it is also good and buying it back in time the market changes a bit because you will get a little profit from market changes

Put that ETH to good use while you wait for the price to rise. You can earn good percentages trading tokens in ETH. Do the solid projects like PUNDI X for example, if you trade that in ETH, you can make profits and average down your cost as well. I trade ETH and BTC but mainly for my daily bread and also to accumulate more in Pundi x and some good coins that have at least a chance to run x 20 in the bull run or even more as they are way undervalued right now. I wish you luck and hope you make profits in 2018, despite this bear market phase that has been really very long on our backs.

I am like you, I am also the Ethereum bought for $600. Now the value of Ethereum is around $300. Although it is very sad, I will always hold my coin and I will continue to wait for the market to rise. I won't sell it.

I recommend keeping it for a while and waiting for the market to stabilize and then sell. Now is the right time to hold, not suitable for sale.

If I were in your place,I would not do that. Selling now won't give you profit but losses instead. Try to hold a little bit longer when the price is higher than 600 or better add more coins if possible.

No, not a goood idea to sell your ETH, just hold it and wait for the right time it will go up eventually just have more patience. ETH can go as high as $1000. If you invested on shitcoins you can cut losses on that by 5%-10% only  and buy back when it goes down more.

I recommend you to have patience. If you sell all your ETH it will be a great loss.
Instead you may try to buy new cheap ETH and get profit via day trading.

No one here will advise you on what to transfer your investments in order to make a profit, I can only say one thing: until you fix a loss - you do not have it. Dont panic, may be we will see a growing market  this year.

i think cutloss is the worst option you can do right now. if you just want to rebuy then just hodl and wait for the bullrun. ethereum is still the most popular altcoins tho

It is not the right time. Please be patient and wait for price to rise or atleast it should reach the amount you have invested.

I myself have not so adept at cut loss. because it cut loss is quite a big risk. So that needs to be done by you that is experienced and has a smart strategy. then we recommend that you first read a lot about cut losses. So you are not missteps and not the wrong strategy.

isn't it better to buy now since the price is low? if you really wanna invest?

Yeah it is not a good idea to sell their coins to cut the losses but It's up to him if he wants to sell the ethereum, because of what happened now in the market. Maybe he needs an fiat for daily or afraid of the situation now, make a decision but don't regret.

I am always surprised by the type of person like this, he does not understand the consequences of trading but forces himself to keep buying, you better read basic trading knowledge first.

I think it's worth the wait and not selling your ETH at a low price, what we're seeing right now. In the near future, this crypto currency can regain lost ground, especially as there is virtually no competition on the market.

To be honest, I don't know when the market will pick up. The market's rise will inevitably involve a large amount of capital. The premise is that there is money to enter the market. Last year's market was because of the huge amount of money. As for how the future is, I don’t know. If you don't want to lose, stick to it.

if you sell eth that you have now you will get a lot of loss because if you look at the price of eth when you buy and the price of eth now is very far away, you should hold the eth you have in the longer term, than You get a huge loss, just wait in a few months, some of the rumors circulating mostly state that the market will recover at the end of this year, so just hold on while waiting for the price recovery.

yes if you have researched that prices will continue to fall sharply, but in my opinion the price will soon improve after August

Keep till the last, Etherium has no competitors in the market and not sure if I will. Yes, now is not the best of times on the market, but it is temporary, will soon begin to rise, I really hope so.

Nobody know. But my personal point of view that you should not sell your ETH. Price was dumped and it is already happen. Now I think that chance for ETH growing is better than falling.  

With the current price of eth it isn't advisable to cut lose considering how much you bought it. There's no way to cut when you knew that it's hopeless and even buying back isn't a good idea. Eth is a potential one and it will surely rise later on so there's no way to be bother about your loss.

And you should actually be buying more.

If you don't need your asset in ETH (money) I recommend you should not sell. This is bearish market and I 100% sure that market will recovery, if it's down, it's will recovery. And that time you can cut loss with less loss

I don't think it's a good idea, because I know the $275 eth is already cheap, it's not going to come back down significantly, and I think it's a good time to buy as long as we're going to make a profit.

If you sell your coin, you are losing money.
If you don't sell your coins, then you have no loss. Temporary fluctuations in the market have no loss for us at all. You need to judge for yourself, your opinion of the market.

I think it's better to hold back, it depends on what plan you plan, whether you are a long-term investor or a trader, because I prefer to hold in the long run and believe in eth will develop I will hold it

For me I don't think that's a nice move if you sell the eth you bought at $600 at $275, the price margin between the two is huge and you will make lose, so it is a good move if you continue to hold

That would be very stupid. Sell the airwaves now. So as you will lose almost four hundred dollars with one Prime -. I was shopping for the same price somewhere in February. But I will wait until the last. It is possible and even necessary now to buy ether. Since the price is very low.

No need to sell off your eth now, you are already on the losing end, so I will advise you hold your eth until price improve, though it might take some time but eth will surely go up again, once market recovers and ICO investing starts booming again, eth price will jump high again.

i am trying to cut my lose too but i want to buy eth instead, i know eth will recover faster than any other alts and i have a felling that this is a good move to gain good profit but still we also need to sell some of our alts in switching coin and eth price now is a huge price too, its just a matter of decision whether you want to try to gamble like what i am thinking right now 

I think market is running through it's lowest rates.  So I do not suggest selling at this point of time.  As you are already suffered a big loss because the difference between buying rate and current price is too much; so I suggest you to buy more at current price it will bring down the average cost price of the coins will go down and loss will be less.  Suppose I bought one coin @ 800 and now the price falls to 400.  Now if I buy 4 more coins at current price the price will be 800+400x4  = 2400 for five coins.  Cost per coin will be 480.  When ever the price goes up you may easily cover the loss.

Traders are very intelligent people.  With every purchase they set stop loss limit.  Suppose he buys coin @ 800 and fixes stop loss limit  @750; will immediately sell in case he sees price falling below 750.  So they do not suffer big losses.

Also I suggest others currently bear phase is running.  It is best time to invest.  Never follow the  market.

Buy when others are selling.  Sell when others are buying.  
 

I think you need to be patient in making decisions, don't sell your ETH at the current price, you better hold your ETH, wait for the price to pass 600 $ and you will feel the benefits of what you buy at 600 $.

I don't think it's a good move to sell when you lost already more than half of your investment. It would be much better to just hold it and then if you have more funds, you can consider investing in it so that you can average down. It would be better as well to study trading so that when the price goes down, you can take advantage of it by selling it and then buy back later. It is not advisable for newbies in trading to immediately do shorting because it's very risky but if you are trading for a while then it would be better to learn both ways whether it's short or long.

Seriously I do not think this is a favourable condition to sell ETH. A coin which was once $800 still have the potential to rise to that level again, or even pass that so why selling at this cheap price. Patience is golden

No reason to rush in as value will bounce back, treat your assets as your future investment, believe that price will bring you fortune, ETH indeed is dumping still but after that the rise will follow, one of the basic rules inside trading is buy low and sell high, good project always have the time to bounce back, maybe your timing is quite not good but if you will just hold then you will see the better result.

Ethereum is the #2 coin and is used for currency as well.  I would not sell out with a huge loss like that knowing how things turn in the crypto world.  You know as soon as you sell Ethereum will be at $1,000.

I think in 6 months you will have your money back and some. I would suggest holding on

in trading, don't take steps too hastily, we must be calm we can wait until the price as we expect, confidence is very important, crypto currency movements are very fast if the price goes down for sure in a not too long time. prices will rise again in a fast time. if the price goes down we have to buy not sell, but if the price goes up we have to sell quickly.

Have you thought about switching from Ethereum to Cardano (ada)?  They may have a superior product to Ethereum and may be on the upswing while Ethereum seems to be losing ground. 

The cryptocurrencies we invested in this year's encryption market have cost us a lot. If we want to recover losses in this market, then we can only continue to maintain, patiently waiting for the market to pick up.

In my opinion, you just have to freeze your coins and wait for growth. In this market, the most important thing is to have patience. Then success is assured to you.

actually this loss cut method is a method that is quite a risk. Many of the people who ultimately do not like this method because it is very vulnerable to losses. then you have to be careful if it wants to cut losses.

if you sell your coins when the market price is down, then you will get a big loss. You just need to be patient to hold your coin until the price rises again. by selling the coins at a cheap price, it will make the price of the coin are getting down in the market and it will take a long time to recover. we should be able to manage our crypto asset well.

I think selling your ETH and buying it back is not a good choice. I think this is wrong. It is a very lost thing to sell your Ethereum. You can continue to buy some Ethereum at a low price. Ethereum already owned only needs patience to continue to hold on

No way man.  Never sell Ethereum in the $200.  Your will be in the hall of fame of crypto stupidity like the guy who bought a pizza for a shitload of Bitcoin.  Don't do it man.  Be patient.

If we want to reduce losses, I think we should have enough patience. Don't sell our cryptocurrency easily. Because the current price is still very low, we only have to wait patiently for the recovery of the market to recover the loss.

There is no doubt Ethereum has lost more grounds against BTC and Fiat in value, but one thing most people forget is that it is also valued in BTC and the price of BTC has lost 70% from the ATH also and for me the drop in the amount ICOs are raising also is a factor because it is what is driving the price of it to $1200

By the looks of things it appears Ethereum has been completely destroyed.  I do think however it will turn around as soon as the market does.  I would HODL and wait for $1,000. It may happen sooner than you think. 

Buy back may not be the right time to get a quick profit, because lately the ETH price is also very stable at $270 and tends to go down, so if you buy back now you might get profit but not quickly ;)

You don't need to worry, the market will recover soon, if you sell at a low price then you will lose everything, hold it, and wait a little more.

If you want to reduce your losses, then your current practice should not be to sell, but to invest, and then lower your average price, so you will not feel that it is a loss. Instead, when the market rises in the future, you will earn more.

you can not always make a profit in stock markets. some periods graphics can be bad. you should wait without panic. these bad times will surely pass. If you sell at a low price you lose money.

Now you do not need to sell your ETH,and buy more at a low price and at the time of growth you will be profitable

If you do not hold until the market recovers, you might not be able to regain your losses. The best you can do not, if you really need to invest in something else, is to use fiat to buy more. If you do not have fiat, then i would advise you to hold.

Obviously if you sell your Ethereum today then you will experience a loss that I think is quite large. You should be patient to wait for the price of the Coin to return to its original state, rather than having to panic and be rash in making decisions. It's better if you still have money, you can buy ETH again at a lower price.

You shouldn't be selling Ethereum right now. You need to hold him down. The thing is that you have already bought at the price of 600, if you sell you will go into the negative, it is not profitable.

I am a true believer in ETH. I would hold it has an ATH of around $1200 and I expect it to reach 3-5k in 2 years!!! Without it we would not have such great altcoins!!!

If you want to sell your Ethereum and buy it at an even lower price simply because it seems to you that the price will be even lower - this is a very bad idea. If you want to do this because you are sure that the price will go down - act! Always rely on facts and analysis of the situation on the market in your actions. Never do things that are based only on your intuition - it's a lottery, which is almost impossible to win!

Just try and understand that the market is in a serious bear at the moment, and many people are have lost their patience and they are selling off, so there is no point selling off and losing a big deal, just hold, soon the market will start to improve like it is already doing at the moment. just hold

I am not selling my Ethereum despite the fact that it has fallen significantly in recent times. I strongly believe this is only temporary and that Ethereum  will still hit new highs, It is not over yet

I don't think its smart idea when you're 70% down. It's like throwing away your funds , but if you wanna go for it and believe it will somehow cut your losses and recover some then go for it.

Sorry to hear about your losses. But yeah, I support your plan to do. It is a good call to purchase ethereum as of now because of its super low price so far. Considering that when you just purchase it a low price and instantly recovers, you gained profit already.

It's already lost half of the price. sell at that price is tantamount to suicide. but this is already more than 50% of losing and if start new again thus obtained is early losses. just buy the value loss before so did not get results. better wait and don't sell for cheap prices.

Even 600 dollars per each ethereum is simply too low, ethereum reached 1400 dollars and if was holding a lot of ethereum I will make sure to not sell my ethereum until it reaches a price of at least 2500 I know that such a price is very high but it is completely reachable in a few years, after all I think that in a few years a new bull market will appear that will most likely be way bigger than the past one.

Hope you have not sold ETH for $ 275. Cutloss only when you lose 5-10%. When the losses are too high, they should not be sold. It is regrettable that many trader has become a holder

Look at the market today.  This is why you never cut losses on a solid coin.  It will come back.  This is also why you do your DD and always pick solid coins.  Then you have no worries. 

Nah some people says its wise to sell to buy back at lows but the truth is that you have still some loss so you wont see on your portfolio that you have negative investment values? lol Thats why never forget to cut loss to avaoid this

If you sell your coins in this time, you almost lose over 50% if your investment, I don't think ETH like as the other crypto, they have the use case and create the smart contract in blockchain, even the price have fallen in this moment, but I trust it will be rise when the market is growing, better to keep it and for your long term reward.

Portfolio drops may become mostly a self-analysis situation if backers should understand and upgrade in experience to improved projects in crypto-currencies which generate higher benefits. simply don't exit blockchain. since you will be green again

We should need to identify what is cutting or giving. Their are different way identifying it. ETH has lower price than the BTC though both of them are useful in such way. The value increase in such way that depends on the needs or it might be because of supply and demand.

When the losses experienced already too deep then goes for cutting losses is the wrong thing. It was not looking for a safe way to secure the assets but went to look for the value of the loss. better hold it when it's already happened and at least wait for a hike to come.

Too late, now it is time to hold, frankly if you did hold at 300 why don´t you just stay to see if you can gain again at least what you´d put into it.

I think that at this point if you believe in the crypto market then you just hold because it is rational to assume that it wont go down further. ETH has already lost a lot of its value ~80%. I think that its is pretty damn close to the bottom. We are lower than we were a year ago also.

If you bought Ethereum for $ 600, then now if you buy Ethereum for $ 300, the average cost per Ethereum coin you get $ 450, that is, you will reduce your loss at the moment if the cost starts to rise.

That's true, you have 50% of a loss. I would wait until October when the mining reward will be reduced from 3 to 2eth per block, that is a 33% reduction in mining rewards. We may hope and think that the price will raise at least by that number.

Hold do not sell have good prediction for ethereum, way back 2017 crypto experts predict ethereum goes into the moon but until now i can'seen this prediction hope before end of the year ethereum become too much expensive.

Do not sell yet, if you are looking to sell the coin and buy back in later then I suggest that you wait for a little while before you sell the coins. Reason being that now that we are seeing a price dip in ethereum that means that there is going to be a recovery coming soon, so you hold of selling those coins, sell during the recovery, then wait to buy back into the coin when it starts doing badly again.

It is better to buy now than to sell because your entry price will be cheaper! because if you sell now, you will have a significant loss. Cryptocurrency market has taken serious hit in past months and I think we may be experiencing bottom in prices of major coin in the Cryptocurrency market.

I do not recommend selling. I think if you think ETH is now at a very low price and will not continue to fall, you can continue to buy. When it rises, it will further reduce your losses.

I think it's not good to cut losses, because your balance is very far from $ 600 to $ 275. Maybe if you really need money-loss losses can be the last choice, but if not I suggest holding up to $ 350- $ 400 if you already unable to hold then sell

I dont like Cut losses especially if you are here for a long term (more than 1 year). If you can still hold and does not need money better do the collar cost averaging to lower you cost of Ethereum and have a bigger position by buying more if you have excess money.

Eth has good value, in my opinion, do not sell, you should add to buy eth at the price below, and when pumping, you sell the new eth, and keep buying again at a cheap price

If can hodl eth for a long time, my answe would be yes, it is a good idea to buy some eth. However, if you can't hodl it, its much better to stay away from it since it's not showing any signs of recovery. Much better if you try other alts or high risk ICO.

I don't think ETH is like any other crypto, they have use cases and make smart contracts on blockchain, even prices have fallen right now, but I believe that will increase when the market is growing, it's better to keep it and for long-term gifts

I hope you are not wrong in choosing, because selling at low prices is not a good choice. Be patient and hold the ethereum you have, and never sell loss. The market will not die, be patient in the future ethereum prices will be able to rise again.

no one knows for sure eth will return to 600 $ or not, eth is currently experiencing a slow increase. I think you better sell your eth and then invest in ICO projects that you think are good.

if you are late to sell then i suggest to hold till die. selling now is not good decision
just believing yourself that everything will be okay!

I also suppose that in long term perspective it should grow together with the market, as its blockchain is the most popular in the crypto community.

Cutlose will only make you lose and continue to lose. wait for the price to return to normal. ETH good coins and stable price movements. buy when the price is red and sell when the price is green, don't turn it over

In a case with Ethereum you definitely should hold it. It is a really strong coin so you will not become worthless. Hold it.

The Cryptocurrency market has suffered a serious blow in recent months and I think we might experience the bottom of the main coin prices in the Cryptocurrency market.
It's better to buy now than sell because your entry price will be cheaper. Because if you sell now, you will experience significant losses.

I'll agree though I'm not a big fan of adding alts to one's portfolio, but since you have already added to your portfolio it's not wise then to sell. While it's naive to comare Eth with Bitcoins, yet Eth is one of those rare alts you can hold till you're able to sell at the right price. As you'll be seeing bitcoins prices are stabilising that will mena sooner or later alts will recover, I won't say they'll shoot through the roof but you should be able to reach your buying price and maybe some profits too.

Why do you sell it if you will buy it back at the same price? in my opinion it's foolishness, you better collect more capital to buy more Ethereum at the current price, if you buy more Ethereum at the current price, with a slight increase you can cover your losses.

I think in order not to lose your money, you just do not sell your money now. Come back after six months and see how prices are going up.

not good , if you're cutting loses at this stage its better to wait for atleast eth to go back to 400$ level. Selling now would cost you so much , but if you think eth will go down futher then its your choice to sell but for me its not smart to sell now at your status.

I am doing this now and I think this is very wise idea. I bought my ethereum for 550 and I am buying some now - and I really hope that it will grow more!!

In my opinion, it is better to hold and wait until the market starts to rise. I personally would not sell at a loss of 50%. At least I think so. The market will soon begin its way up.

As for me I would not change the Ethereum on some other coin, and more over if you bought it per 600$ for the Ethereum. The only thing that I would do, I would play on the falling in price in pair with the USDT or Bitcoin.

Until you sold, you did not lose it. After selling the cryptocurrency at the lowest price, you immediately lose investment and not the fact that you can then buy more and cheaper, often the market deceives us. My advice is to hold.

for now you should keep holding and waiting for the price to rise above 600.

No one can tell you what to do with your money, that is a very personal decision, do you really need that money did something happened and you need that money desperately? Then sell your coins and get your fiat, but if you do not really need the money it could be a good idea to keep holding your coins.

Losing over 60% of your buying price doesn't validate selling what's left. Now you'd better stick to your coins and wait patiently till the trend reverts, and it seems that we may be well on our way there. If you urgently need money, you can sell as much as you need. Then, when you have fiat, you can buy back what you have sold, and still more so if the price continued to go south.

Moreover, you can always diminish your losses by selling at local highs and buying at local dips. Even if you end up with only 70-80% of the amount of coins you started with at your entry price, it would still be a better outcome than losing all. Always remember that.  And don't be penny wise and pound foolish.

It depends on you whether you are a long-term investor or a daily trader, if you are a long-term investor you don't have to worry about eth prices going down because the price will someday rise, if you are a daily trader, of course you have to determine how many percent must cut lose so as not to experience too much loss and learn about money management

I belive you bought ETH at $600 to HODL for a long time. If yes then forget about selling now. it will go up in the near future. But if you are trader, i expect you to have cut your loss long time again because at this price, the loss is to hard to cut. i will advice you to still ETH till the end of the end. I believe, it will still come up.

Don't panic. Soon the market will settle down and everything will be fine.

Now selling it and buying it back will cost you a lot of money, and I would suggest you take your COINS and trust the price to go up again.

it was necessary to sell at a price of 550-500 and wait for clear signals to buy. Now to do this makes no sense, you have to wait..

if you really don't want to experience a loss then that's the only way you can do it. you can save it until the ethereum price returns at a price of $ 600, even more if you want to make a profit

Bad entry, you should have set stop-loss around 500.
I don't think that's a good idea, why not let it be? hodl.

I think if you have other capital, you should only buy it and not sell assets. You can make purchases in amounts greater than the first investment for ethereum. Short trading can bring fast profits. or you choose the holding option.

I agree, why would you sell now? Only if you do not believe in the technology and it's future, but then why did you buy it in the first place. The fundamentals are still strong, despite the low prices. 99% of ICOs are on Ethereum and that will not change soon.

I also think it is simply too late for him to sell his coins but you must understand that people are under a tremendous pressure right now and if that was not enough the price is going down again and ethereum is below 200 dollars at some point people will break and will sell their coins even if they know that is a mistake because they can no longer tolerate the thought of losing so much money.

It's risky business to sell Ethereum because when it turns it going to rise quickly.  It's gotta be close to the bottom at this point.  I also seriously doubt if Ethereum is going ot go down to 100 flat you will pick the perfect sell and buyback time.  You could end up making a bigger mess of things.  If you sell to buy back watch the market like a hawk. 

People are going to make a huge mistake if they sell their ethereum at the current prices, even if right now I cannot see the price of ethereum going very high, I will have to wait to see if the markets are giving any kind of signal that we're going to see some kind of positive trend for ethereum anytime soon, but if you are a long term holder buying ethereum now is a move that cannot go wrong in the next years.

I think for today the price of Ethereum has begun to appear to crawl even if only slowly. but this is a good step for ethereum prices which have experienced a lot of price reductions this month. in my opinion not to cut losses at this time. try to hold it until the end of this year, I see the price of Ethereum already seen there will be a resurrection.

You don't know beforehand whether it will be a mistake or not, and that's the problem with crypto. When you think it has already reached the bottom, the second bottom may be impatiently awaiting you. In this manner, if you expect the prices to fall lower, it won't hurt you financially if you sell now to buy back later at lower prices.

And that's the whole point, even if you may personally sincerely believe that the price won't go lower, the market may think otherwise. It doesn't care about your personal beliefs much. On the contrary, what the majority think about future prices more often than not turns out downright wrong.

You lose already , so not losing more is not important! Just forget it, may be after a year , you will rich if the market PUMB !

right I agree with your opinion, when the price goes down immediately buy it and when the price goes up can be sold, do not sell when the market price drops it will cause losses for yourself, if you do not want to lose your money do not ever do

Nobody knows what will happen next with the price of the ETH. Maybe it has not yet reached the bottom and the price will fall even lower. But in your case, I would not sell now.

Don't panic , and don't sell your Ethereum at that price . It's not the beginning of the end . Just wait until the market stabilizes and the price goes up . According to forecasts of many-it has to happen in the fall-winter

The urge to sell and buy back in is insane.. if you have a couple of ETH at 600 and 400 and its now 85 will you say fudge it and sell to buy back in? the profit will be faster and garanteed. not seeing ETH hitting 600+ any time soon..

now the price of Ethereum is very low, not a good solution if you sell it, then you will lose a lot. You must use this opportunity to buy as much as possible, because in the future it might return to normal and be able to rise so that you will make a profit. It is better to save your coins first to avoid losses, if prices continue to fall you are only resigned because you will lose more.

We live now the days when it is not affordable to sell but to hold. It is important to keep holding what you have at least until the price is bigger than it was when you invested.

In my opinion, for now it's better to hold the coins that you have and wait for the price to break even. You will not lose if you do not sell the coins that you have and if you choose to sell and buy them again I think that is the wrong decision. So, hold on and continue to observe its development in the market.

If you don't want to loose your funds, you must diversify your investment portfolio, only in this way you can cut your losses at a bear market.

Feeling your pain) If you still hold I think it would better to continue holding and wait calmly for the next bull run. I wouldn't try to short now. Better wait and go for something else than trading while waiting.

Certainly, yes. Holding is simple- just try to concentrate your attention on some other activities. Stop trading for a short time and do not touch your tokens and Bitcoins. It will help you to cut losses. Wait for the bulls.

If Ethereum gains 200 dollars by the end of the year, it will be a successful rise. However, this is still not enough for the cryptocurrency market. Nobody likes to wait and lose money.

it seems to me that the price of $ 600 ethereum will not reach very soon
If you have experience in trading, it is better to try to trade in other coins in order to discourage losses a little. and then buy the original coin, the same ethereum
Now here is a good price, and by the way it is possible that it will drop even more, to $ 55-60

To reduce the loss of money, you do not need to think when and at what price to sell your ether. It is necessary to make a decision to trade actively on a daily basis in order not only to reduce, but also to go in this direction to earn money. I have such experience to escape losses.

I think you should buy again rather than sell because ethereum is better for long term investment. Wait till it really won't because the price will increase again. Be calm and be patient, what you are holding now can get goo d profit at the right time. Continue to hold and do not be afraid that it won't come back in good price because it will.

the cut loss was more than 50% loss is a mistake if for me. But if that anticipate losses more in which the crypto can keep falling then the risk could have been taken. but to restore the existing capital certainly can't in a fast and sure there are further increases did not provide a profit but only as cover losses.

It will be comparable to playing roulette. You will wait for an uptrend and think that it will happen gradually, but in fact everything will happen instantly. Jump from $ 100 to$ 350 a day. You won't even have time to react.

I don't know what your strategy is. You do not earn , but simply fix your losses and will try your luck in another direction. If you decide to play investor then play to the end. Why go into the role of a trader.

Best to cut loss within the 10-15% loss. Accepting the loss is the most difficult part but if the market falls further like it did, you'd be happy you cut loss.

Ethereum is $100 above. This is the right time to buy more ethereum because it is possible that few hours from now it will be back to $500 again. Buy more now if would you like in order to have more open doors to a decent profit from your strategy. Don't give up your faith and hope because for sure your labor of patient will not in vain.

Its not a nice one to sell now i know its very painful and you would be a very big lose when you sell now just hold on soon enough there will be a boost and a rise in eth so do not sell just hand in there for the moment thanks

I saw numbers that brought the author to tears) Now ETH 106$ and I think this is a significant turn because it began your turn with 90$. I think this is the beginning of a new ascent and rise of ETH to the new top of the crypto industry.

the number of altcoins has dropped which is followed by etherium down so many have cut losses on the coins they have.

Today's events have occurred at the price of digital currencies, especially Etherum and Bitcoin are experiencing a very sharp decline since a few months ago. but for someone who bought etherum at a high price beforehand, try to save it now, hold it and don't sell it now. this will make you very loss if you sell your assets. wait a good time for a few months later.

If you are sure that ETH will going to go further lower, then cutting loses is good, but if the market suddenly do something good again, expect much loses when you sell your current holdings of ethereum coins.

This is why it is not good to take or give certain advice, while he was to to hold at above $270 the coin had dropped to more less than $100 and it would require another long wait to get to the former price if at all it would. The best is to follow one's instinct and leave whenever you find comfortable

I think the strategy depends more if you are a trader rather than just a buy and hodler. What would you move into if you sold ETH and would that currency also depreciate at a similar rate or take the safe haven choice of going to cash instead? If you are a trader then you should always set stop losses to reduce your risk exposure when a coin is falling. If you are a buy and hold investor then acquiring more coins at a lower price will help reduce your overall cost average and lessen the pain of the fall in price.

I want to ask you, why you buy eth at 600 $? is it for investment? if it's for investment then selling it is the wrong thing what you need to do in investing is time and patience.
if you are a trader and sell your assets when prices fall very deep then you are an amateur trader.

Stay calm and wait for the better market conditions. I mean, you cannot do something right now, but I would not recommend to cut the loses, because the market can still recover within several years.

Lol. As if you're always talking to a long term investor dude. It doesn't work for everybody. That's why we have a stop loss function to save us from losing a lot and get in at another, better time.

Instead of selling at low price and buying back, it would be good if you hold and buy more so that the average buy price gets reduced.
For example, if you had bought 1eth at $600, now buy 2eth for $100 each, then you have 3eth with investment of $800. So your buying price will be 800/3= $266.

few days ago i just cut loss for Waves i bought Waves when the price in $16 and few days ago i can't hold it anymore, i'm sell all of my Waves in price $1,5/Waves, i'm loss more than 80% from all of my waves asset  :'( :'(

The price was still good then and now that it is below $80 and if hold then that show their is more loss and holding is the best answer now as the market is yet to show anywhere to recover soon.

Before trading you should learn first about how to manage crypto assets properly so that bad things like this won't happen, this is my tips for you. Do not cut loss if your portofolio value has dropped above 50%, because it will be difficult to recovery (ideal range for cut loss is 10-20%). So next time, if you have experience the same thing it's better to buy more or just hold it until the value returns.

haha I agree with you that you can buy more to store ETH now. But I'm very much looking forward to when ETH returns to $ 500, I'm betting a lot on this market, so that's the best hope for me at the moment.

Now is a great opportunity to fix the losses and buy those coins that will cover at least some of them. The market began a small move to the top. Do not miss it!

Cryptocurrency needs to be bought at the lowest possible prices, and sold at the highest possible. Only in this case, we can hope for a profit. If you bought ethereum at a price of $ 600, then selling it for $ 275 will bring a loss. In order to make a profit in this case, it is necessary to sell it when this coin will cost more than 600 dollars. Given the current state of the cryptocurrency market, it will not be soon.

Of course this option is also possible. If you sell your eth at a higher price and buy it back at a lower price, then in time you will have much more coins than you did with the original purchase. And when the price of the eth finally begins to recover, you will get a good profit.

Sometimes when we are told to sell the coins we have and take our profits, we behave like it is not good and useful to us, until we eventually lost.
Although, i lost part of my investment during the initial bear market in this year, but afterwards, i sold them off, so as not to incur more losses.
I then decided to keep part of the fiat, which is what i am now using to purchase the bear market.

A deep decline. Moreover, the market is saturated, if the cut loss then buy back, the recovery will be long enough. The decision is in your own hands, dwyor. Hopefully there are good developments so that your capital can return.

I don't think it's a good idea. You gonna lose too much if you sell at this time, better for you to hold it until the price recovers from the recent decline.

If you didn't planning to hold your coins for long time period, you should sell your coin when it dropped more than 20%.
Cutting loss is necessary if you are not a long time holder. Now ETH price is around $100, you will need long time to hold if you want to keep holding until it hit your buying price. Cutting loss now is too late, your ETH has dropped from $600 to $100, better keep holding for long.

Sense to sell cheaper than buying?
Should always be additional free funds for buy with interesting drawdowns.

It depends on your decision and your strategy mate if you think that you can get benefits from it you can do it,because there is also a cutlosses that the purpose is to increase the tokens we hold.

It is now too late for you to cut your loss on Ethereum because the current price now is only at 100 dollars. If you’re so patient enough to wait for the price to come back at 600 dollars or beyond that then that’s good.

Of course there must be free funds. But the OP is not a pro and he has not yet understood that there should always be free funds for purchases.
He is great that he is trying to find a way to improve his financial condition now. In his situation, such a strategy is good. I think that he will draw the right conclusions for the future. I see the potential in OP to be a great trader.

Just wait a little longer. If you have bought some crypto currencies at the high prices, relax and wait at least till the prices will recover. If you cut your losses you will only decrease your portfolio without any benefits.

it's true that most people can stop the loss in their own hands, because if you make a good decision you can stop losses and get income so that the main capital can return

in my opinion, the cut-up above 10% is already very severe and should not be repeated again, especially if it occurs in ETH, BTC, EOS or other major coins which of course still has the potential to recover. Cut loss at a major coin like that is the most careless thing.

if I think it's a bad idea, because I've lost 50% more. I think then it is necessary to hold, because ethereum is long-term

Of course correctly, you can do so, and when the market rises, you get your profit in full, that's just have to wait when it will be, I hope that ten years for this too long.

it's hard to find a reasonable price in the near future, but 10 years in my opinion is too long. 2 years I think the price will go up and not easy for the coin for that long unless you really have a strong trading principle.

Sometimes it is better to sell off your investment to avoid further loss. Instead of just holding it and watching your investment value go down, if you think the price will dip further, then just sell off your investment. Once the minimum point has been reached, buy back the equivalent value. This time you will be having more coins than before and will actually be making more profit than what you would have made holding before selling.

as we see selling for 275 dollars then it would be a great idea that would bring you a lot of money

I think you can now sell part of the eth, and try to buy below, I think we have a good fall , and then it will be possible to reduce your losses, still can not see the bull market and you can try to use the chance

in my opinion ethereum holder who wants to increase the amount of ethereum can use ethereum for investment in the ico project and also use it to trade on the dex exchange but you have to take risks

This is not a loss until you do not sell (it is only a paper loss).
You can sell and buy back cheaper if it drops further or you can buy more to have a better average.

I hurried and sold promising coins, which, even with such a market, are growing, so I won’t risk with ethereum — let it still lie in my wallet))

we have to make sales at the right time to sell or reinvest the ETH we hold. $ 275 is quite high, we don't know that prices will continue to rise or fall, consider also because the market moves very fast. sell and invest in several ICO projects to take advantage.

It's completely ridiculous to be talking about cutting your losses in the circumstances like this. If you have been patient so far and kept the coins through everything that we have been through for the last couple of months, keep it for a couple of months longer.

it’s probably too late to sell cryptocurrency in the hope of re-purchasing it later I think now we are seeing at the absolute minimum

It is quite logical to just wait for the support zone and buy more Ethereum, and not sell the existing one. Falling below $ 50 is unlikely, and therefore sell at current prices you have no sense.You have to go into the build-up phase.

Moreover, cut loss is really dangerous because the market can make a reversal and you'll lose your money! We'd better wait cause we won't go down below $50-60 for 1 ETH! The worst is over!

the bottom is hard to say where , but to sell now is not the time I agree with you , better hold and wait for market reversal , I think the Ethereum maybe next bull market easy to reach up to$3000

Well, today's market value it is better to hold for you who are newbie to know..When we say cut losses it means you need to made a decision correctly to make profit. A very good example is buy at low price and sell it when the price is high more than the amount you buy it.

yes, it's better to wait for the market to be safe and always hold it, don't be easily affected, because if you sell it, you will definitely lose.

This condition will definitely end and will recover like last year, just praying that there will be kindness from Crypto. Now it's better to think about what makes you safe, than you lose, you have to wait and be patient. in my opinion it might be the best, but everyone thinks differently, so whatever makes you safe and can be profitable.

Well obviously you just have to chill at the moment its not the right time to sell any either the market will surely power back up and then you can dish out your coins for sake but not at this point in time

Of course, you need to do it. If you are sure that the price will fall even more, then it makes sense to sell your coins and wait a bit. It does not matter at what price you bought. Only the number of coins is important. There is no doubt that Ethereum will grow in value and in the end you will win. The crypto market is very unpredictable.

Well i think you should sell it and then wait for the market to drop to its lowest. Obviously that is tough to figure out but once the market stops falling and starts improvement, only then jump in.

Wait until it recovers.

Theres still hope that eth can reach $600 again but not this year. You need to be patient until that happen again.

It is even difficult to imagine how many people lost their money because they entered the crypto at the wrong time. And someone earned a lot on this or are still earning...

So it happens. There are those people who earn and there are those people on whom earn. I'm sorry that many people lost their money by investing in cryptocurrency, but let's not remove the blame from themselves. After all, each of us made the decision to buy crypto currency. And one people thought that they were smarter than others and didn't want to spend their time learning and gaining skills to trade in the crypto market. Only in fact it turned out that they were wrong and it was necessary to strain in order to earn money all the time and that the crypto market is not a roulette game and thay have to take responsibility for thay actions.
While others strained every day to understand the crypto market and learn how to earn money on it.

now there is no need to do anything since it is already too late to do something if you have not done it before

It was a great idea and I think that this was exactly what every investor should have done at that moment.

i agree with you,,
for the OP :
if you want to sell your ethereum, now is too late,,
now is the time to buy more eth, if you have enough capital buddy

as long as we can get profit in this bear market why don't we sell it. Even if it's a small profit it's not a problem because it reduces risk. we don't know whether the next day will go up or even actually it will actually go down we don't know.

Ethereum should always be in your wallet. This is the main coin through which all other coins and tokens are traded.

Therefore timing is everything for trading and investment. We must do market analysis and adjust it to our Bep. Even if we have to cut it we have to find the right strategy, whether it can buy back or wait and see until there are proper timings before the price bounces. Risks are always there, we must be patient and do our best.

Selling is not a good step for you to do, you better buy eth again while the price is still low, at least it cannot cover the losses you experience. But if you sell it you will lose everything, a huge loss.

if you didn't sell your eth yet,,
i think now is too late for sell my friend
there is only one you can do for now,, just hodl your eth,, do not sell it in current price,, you will lose a lot of money
i believe ethereum will be back and grow more than $600 in the next year my friend

People will stop buy again while he still hasn't made a profit from what he's holding. It's easy to say that, if it is you, you will definitely be preoccupied with the panic feeling, because the price has dropped so deep and you have imagined how much loss you have received. What you want to do is just how to minimize the loss.

Ethereum is still a good bet but there is increasing competition from NEO, Cardano, EOS, and LISK. I would not invest purely in ethereum, but in all of it's competitors as well just in case it fails to scale well

I would now start investing in cryptocurrencies in the long term, well, I mean for a year or two. Ethereum is also worth buying. I think that now the price should fall, but closer to spring will begin to grow.

I fully agree that Ethereum has descended very strongly and in the new year of course I as well as you expect great growth from Ethereum.

But I think it is worth waiting for growth only by the end of the year , but the fact that Ethereum is not necessary to sell now is a fact)

A coin of $ 270 could be sold, so that later Ethereum could be bought cheaper. But at the current price below $ 100 to sell Ethereum is not necessary. I believe that now Eth has already reached its minimum level, will continue to only go up. Therefore, I prefer to hold coins for at least a year.

You can of course choose to develop such a trading strategy, which I think is also very suitable for the current cryptocurrency market.

I think that the only strategy today, to avoid losses in the cryptocurrency market, is to calm down a bit and leave all your coins in long-term storage until the market recovers. Any trading actions can lead to losses and carry a large proportion of risk.

if you sell now the loss is too big, or you can follow my habits when I get a loss. for example you now have a capital of $ 500 after that is divided into 2, for which $ 250 you buy eth at the current price (1eth = $ 134) and the second you can pending buy orders at $ 85 only as an example you try to analyze and take steps to reduce losses

many people expect the price of ETH will drop even lower, but for some reasons today it has begun to grow. and growth is going very well. Now the price is already 133 dollars. I still keep USDT

I'm just like you in the usdt, the growth now all altcoins is, you need to calm down and wait for a lower price, it is unlikely that we will now see a bullish trend , and who is in eth I would have sold now about 50% , and I think it will be possible to buy below $80

It surely mean that you can earn profit a more faster, but its risk are high. Because you have no assurance that it would expect to go on your expectation. Making investment on pumps and dumps, are smart yet difficult move.

I believe that Ethereum will continue to remain one of the main coins in the modern crypto market. In any case, will be able to survive and grow in the future. Therefore, at the current price below $ 100 you cannot sell Eth, you just need to continue to hold and buy coins.

You buy ethereum at such an expensive price and if you apply cut losses it seems that it will only make you lose, you better wait until the price goes up again because the cryptocurrency price can definitely be very expensive again, you just need to be patient because if you panic it will only make you lose.

It is quite difficult to explain this situation. To begin with, why did you sell at this level? This is a good resistance that he can not break and you believe in his imminent fall? What is the rationale for your decision?

Ethereum is good coin and the network used by many token in market. I think i will keep it for long term and not selling it at this time because we just realizing our loss. Better wait and see market condition. Most coin drop the price including ethereum but we should not panic with this condition

I bought Ethereum for 500 , and sold it for 300 , and now I think when to buy, I think that this price is very good to buy but more likely we can see $50

With this situation, cut losses is the worst decision because the price of market is low, if you cut losses that means you are cutting your hand.

I also think it's better to be patient, wait for prices to rise and not to worry too much, coins will continue to fall as long as the coins you have are indeed coins you choose based on your own observations.
try to trust yourself with your own choices.

Sometimes it's a good decision if you can't wait for that long to recover the coin that you have bought. This depends on your situation on how you are taking the patience into the next level. Like anyone else, bought some coins at the highest price and now it's more than 80% at loss. I don't have to cut loss because I've already lost that much and I'm not willing to take my money back with the very few left on it. I can't wait until it recovers because I believe in the market reversal.

The game in any market is based on patience and greed. Few people manage to wait for the lowest asset price.

Be careful with psychological decisions such as that one. You need to focus on important financial indicators of risk management and diversification.

Cutting losses is never an easy thing to consider and really go through. Some situations though are indeed better to resolve using this method. Like when something bad and urgent happens in your life and you are in need of money, something like this and you should sell your bags.

If you don't have any real need to sell your crypto bags, you should think twice before selling.

Looking back to 2018, it was a good move. But no one knew what would happen, also now, nobody will tell you if we are close to the end of bear market or what. There are just tips, speculations.   :(

In the present case, instinct should also be useful to find the right decision. Because the analyzes are not enough to find the next move. Definitely one day everything will be fine, but we do not know how far away that day.

And these people who have been buying at the bottom always wins and to those impatient investors, they fall to their own mistake.

ETH prices have dropped dramatically from the previous highest price with the current price of only $ 137, for long-term holders it is certainly not profitable to sell it now, but in my opinion it takes a long time to recover. All our own decisions determine, it's better to hold a little longer and buy other coins to trade.

so we have to be careful in doing everything, right even though the market in the future will be fine but we don't know for sure when the market will recover, and we during and until the time comes we must be patient and able to do other activities that can help.
anyone does not know anything will happen in the future, but if you can start from now to do any activity that can produce, of course in the future the market will rise and you can get big profits.

It depends on the situation because if you think that it will go deeper then cutting loses will be an option and just buy again at lower price if it hits bottom so you can accumulate more. It's just risky because you can lose big depends on the drop. Just be careful doing cutting losses.

Cutting loses is one of the best strategies anyone could apply in crypto trading. Looking back at the current ETH price, you will be happy if you had cut your losses when it was over $270. It's currently at half that price imagine bewteen then and now, you would have lost half of the value even more.

That's right, if you master this system you will be able to allow yourself making things still favors you even the situations is not doing well with your current holdings, you need to workout learning deeper to take advantage of this strategy, after that you'll be familiarize with any events.

Cutting losses is not that easy with cryptos since these are so volatile. It may work for some top coins but for smaller coins one has to buy and hold with patience.

It means I still lucky when I bought ETH at 300$+ and add when it fall to 160$ and still I keep holding and no plan to sell my coins but I didnt able to add when it fall less than 100 I thought it would fall deeper.
I'm not a fan of cut loss I usually doing average down to keep my total buying price low. And I invest only in too 10 coins in market cap.

not all pieces will be better than leaving it. for small coins, we have to patiently hold it until it gives us a little profit.
indeed sometimes cutting losses will save you, but we have to think well and move forward.
the market will improve soon if we cut losses we will not get it in the future, so we must be patient to get profits so wait until the coins you hold are profitable.

I'm late and you probably know the answer now. You would have doubled the amount of ethereum if you sold at 275 and bought back at current prices.

Hindsight is always 20/20.

In the current situation on the cryptocurrency market, it seems to me, it would be more correct to buy Ethereum at $100 - $110. Then sell ETH at levels $130- $140. It is possible to leave part of the deposit for a long HODL to sell on the possible achievement of 1000 USD by Ethereum.

And now did you cut the losses?
Or you try hold and hope?
The price level of 275$ now looks like a great gift.

Don't cut your trade in loss because this is crypto market and every body have to keep patience for the profit. This is that place where crytpo market is standing at very low price and if any person entered at this time then he is very lucky person and your selling your investment. So don't sell and wait for while.

Sometimes cutting losses is necessary, but you need to think about your next plan before deciding to cut bigger losses. In my personal opinion I would prefer to hold it for some time and if I have to cut losses at least the price of the coin when I sell it is not too much different from the price when I bought it.

Sometimes it is good to cut losses. This is the main reason why every investor or holder of a coin must know the potentials of the coin in possession. Not all coins are worth holding because not all of these coins entering the crypto market survives for long term. Some coins continue to fall and never rise again until they die off completely. Research into the project and ascertain the potentials of the coin, if it is not likely to rise, it is better to trade it for a more valuable coin on the market - perhaps for any of the large cap coins.

I dont think that selling is the good way to save some of your money, if i were you instead of doing cutlosses i will buy again alot of eth because the price is so cheap, hold until the price bounce back again etheruem have a bright future.

For the better keep hold it because ETH have strong fundamental and when they solve scalability issue so this coin has potential to riase to the top price again. Cut loss more than 50% is bad idea ,trend of  crypto market will change to bullish later.

At that time you should sell ETH coins because now the price has dropped significantly. The strategy to cut losses is sometimes done if the coin falls freely. Currently the Crypto market is red and if you want to trade you can do it now.

do not cut loss, wait until the price falls and you buy it when the price reaches the lowest point. then hold down with the coin you bought before. then when the price goes up, sell them together.

Need long times for ETH to going up to $600 and my idea is use that ETH to trade with others altcoin to increase the amount of ETH, so when ETH going up to $600 we can make some profit.

ETH these prices will travel a lot. increase the number of ETH around here. But my suggestion is that you can carry out transactions with ETH in altcoins and increase your hand.

the more transactions it will build the greater the ethereum market. if a loss at ethereum might trade altcoin with an etheruem pair is the right choice to return our losses. but in trade you have to be careful about choosing assets.

you are late if you want to sell and buy back,
if according to the chart ETH should be up shortly, because the candle chart is above ema 21,
for me one of the coin indicators will go up if the candle is above that.
but all returned to their respective beliefs.

The problem is you may buy high and sell low if you try to "cut losses" so it may not be the best thing to do.

yep that's right, i think cutting losses right now is a bad decision.
we will regret it in the future, now the market is starting to show good growth. just waiting a little more, i'm sure the market will recover completely and when that happens we will sit there.

You should always evaluate the current market situation, which is constantly changing. Now we are really in a situation where the market can start its upward movement. Therefore, if anyone still has available funds, it's time to buy promising coins and tokens. However, reinsuring does not hurt, and therefore it is better to do it in stages, acquiring cryptocurrency in small lots.
Ethereum is still one of the best coins and its cost is now relatively low.

I agree, it is very important to make an analysis of the situation on the market every week. I like to analyze data and factors of cryptocurrency market development.

Are you sure if he can understand about what are you talking about? i don't even understand what are you saying right now.

Trade is another good way but remember trade will involve a lot of risks and that means we must try to put only some percentages of our amount to trade it with another altcoin.

never think if cutloss is the safest way, especially in trading ethereum, ethereum has very good trust, it would be very unfortunate if you panic and hurry to cutloss

Observed and take a lots of review before taking any position, the market continue to show some strength, doing any actions without knowing the the potentials will stress you out while seeing some good momentum, but if you do have good understanding and you can cope up which you can take advantage of market sway, best to make sure that you have the edge if you will proceed doing some adjustment with your current position, cutting loses in order to buy back or to start with a much better sets of plans.
