Emotions are difficult to control mid-stream, but if everything was laid down on the table before the trades were made, it would have been relatively easier to manage. Now that you're neck deep in loss, it is already too late to consider a stop loss, because the price might pick up soon after you threw in the towel.

By the way, which altcoins did you commit your money to? If it's the more stable ones like ETH, LTC, XMR, DASH, NEO and a few others, I would suggest you maintain you hodl and even raise money to buy more at current rate. The altcoin market is for now paying homage to their king - Bitcoin, over its hard fork slated for November 16th, subsequently the price of altcoins, especially the top ones are sure to pick up, unless you had bought shitcoins, Don't regret taking the huge loss, keep buying a little bit more of the altcoins should they drop further and remain positive, reversal is near!

Buy and keep for at least the next 3 years. The value then will be over $100000

You should buy now. There is no reason for waiting. How can you know BTC price will decrease after hard fork?

of course you can buy   you can not see the future 10k $ is coming like winter is coming john snow see but other peoples can not see : we said now : buy and wait . see you next 3 later

As now bitcoin is getting popular day by day and irs price also increasing daily. As per me i think this is the time where you should start your bitcoins and sell them when you get maximum returns.

I believe alot of people here are giving some great advice. As you start your journey in this world, first of all welcome to some really exciting stuff.

I would recommend buy the dips that others have already mentioned. The BTC run is way above the trends seen from fundamental analysis perspective. As others said, there is an impending correction which is healthy for BTC.

Before the next hardfork we are going to experience a drop in bitcoin pricing and maybe next week we would have a correction and within those times bitcoin will be fluctuating between $6500 and $7,500. However, any break out from these support and resistance will lead to another market direction. I will advise you to hold on before buy bitcoin because the time you buy a coins do matter and since we are expecting a pull back in price.

There are conflicting opinions with this question. Some people say, especially those seasoned traders to hold them up because although the fork would maybe bring about a slump in the price of bitcoin, it would soon ease up, and bitcoin would return to its normal value. On the other hand, some people say that, it is better to sell them as it is currently in its best price margin in years. So, having said, it actually depends on you, are you short-term or long term kind of investor?

I think buying bitcoin is always advisable if you are thinking about the long term. Although it's volatility, it's price is increasing in the long term, so if you buy it now, and the price drops, it will mos likely still move up again and give you profit. Of course that if you have limited resources, like most people do it's important to try to get the best price, so you can get more coins. I do think the price will go down a bit, right after the fork, and then it will move up again.

In my view I say we are humans and we always think some thing better like a greedy so we should think in same logic with a business ethics.

We strongly recommend you if u have already invested then check for the rate, if price increases and u understand u r in profit then hold the profit and withdraw the capital which u invested this helps u a stress relief also u can go with your profit rate increments.

Hope I'm done with my best, hoping u are glad.

The advice you'll always receive is buy low and sell high, I could be wrong but I feel bitcoin is close to the top with regards to its current price, I expect a fall of some extent in the coming weeks, however it is impossible to predict with anything even close to certainty.
