I can't be the only one thinking,

"Why the hell did I sell?"

when you speculate you actually gamble, there is no right or wrong. at that point of time you couldn't know that
maybe tomorrow everything will collapse by 50%

Did you consider to become a long time investor? (maybe have specific written exit points like a year from now and ect...)

Do you play poker? If someone raises you pre flop and you have 2J than you should fold. Why? Because in most of the times you will lose. So if you lose and on the flop appears JJ2 you did not make a mistake.

If I had bought an substantial amount of bitcoins with 10$/BTC and the course is now at 60$ I would sell 1/3. So if the course crashes tomorrow I would have made a nice profit. The problem is: I did not have buy. So now I have to consider if I buy. I think it is too risky for me... :(

your not. permabear here. relax, this shit will stabilize -nothing really changed, btc is still 100% speculation driven. lots of hype recently (6months) regarding asic, have to understand btc is still in its infancy, many fundamental problems still need to be addressed.

I'm confident that most btc is horded, and will come back to earth at some point. seeing sub 20.00 btc??? i sure as fuck hope so :(

EDIT: errrr, not sure how much has change since March 06, 2013 :( you may be in for rough ride my friend...
