Rookie mistake.. Got into BTC (and some ETH) Jan 2nd at the later part of the boom. Bought at 32k and again 34k. Reading here, CoinDesk, BitcoinTalk, Anton and the likes on Twitter/podcasts... It is a lot to assimilate but I wrote heartedly believe in the value of crypto and decentralization. BUT after being up 3.5k (small potatoes for some) fast when it was tanking this morning and speculation was of a 25-28k correction I panic sold for a loss. Now it has stabilized around 34k. I was ready to pump more, probably should have held but when with the emotional decision.

So now what? When should I get back in? How? Put half my previous portfolio in and commit to hodl long term (not ocd check coinstats trying to get rich quick) with the other half ready to pump when there is a dip again? Wait to see if it dips again? Or pump now bc "time in the market is more important than timing the market?

The monetary loss is not significant at all. I am irritated I made a mistake and thought I was smarter than I realize was. I am a crypto rookie.
