How to survive if you lose more than 80% of your Capital?

[JeotQ]

You can recover is you belief, you should learn trading for fast recovery and I suggest you use Bitcoin not altcoins for trading, if you can keep buying Bitcoin at bottoms you will rise up fast, the most profitable investment now is bitcoin

[Ailmand]

What was we need to do there was only patience. Because every coin always give you a chance to be survive your self by bouncing back near your buy rates.

It is good to be positive, however, pet me break it for you. Not all coins, especially new altcoins recover or will cover from the bear market. That is why to survive, you must not stat in one project for too long. Expand your horizon and look for other opportunity once you have your profot from one project. If you trust a project, just buyback.

Some people are doing suicide after this and i can understand them

Anyways past can't changed. If you are still try to keep you alive in crypto is keep calm, Trust in your choice, and HODL it. One more thing you should be in
a very potential coin, if you are HODLING shit coins, So you need to be brave and jump into a better coins.

Hope this will help you.

There must be something on your trust, the project to be trusted there should be something on them that you will think that they can bounce back in any bad situation, so far only the top coins in the market has done, from these top coins you already have an idea, what to look for if you are going to add or dump coins that you are holding, you just don't hold coins just for FOMO.

it's hard if we have lost more than 80% of assets, of course psychologically very disturbed. but we may lose capital, but don't lose our confidence. therefore we must be able to analyze the project well, thus accelerating the recovery of our capital. especially if we are good at trading, certainly not a difficult thing to restore it

[Clark05]

Losing more than 80 percent of your capital is not really good because it means that you have only 20 percent left of your total capital that you invested to the coin, but they have instances that because market dump even you got a potential coin you will lose more of your capital. They have other ways to survive your money and this is only to hold until the price go back when you bought to get what you spend  in that coins.

If for now it is better to capture bitcoin at the lowest price, because it would be very risky if traders buy at the current price, because now bitcoin is experiencing price declines in all markets which results in traders being afraid to buy in large quantities.

[Mighty_crypt]

The quality of the coins you hold is what matters not there present value, if you are into crypto space for quick buck then learn trading, day trading is the best choice, if you are in for HODL then spend your time doing lots of research on popular projects and choose wisely

[BlackFor3st]

As per my perception here is a lot of investor/trader who was comes in at early 2018 or may be in mid of the year. That time was the best time of crypto and ALT coins too. But later on this scenario was converted into downtrend and all coins were falling simultaneously. It was cause of FUD, huge movements in Bitcoin due to whales manipulation. As a result our portfolio was reduced on daily basis. Mostly people were hoping to bounce back market around their buy potion but this was not happen at all.

In that time how we confirmed our loss? When we were realize that market is going up and our coin is not moving we sold it and jumped in running train,
there we confirm our loss.

What was we need to do there was only patience. Because every coin always give you a chance to be survive your self by bouncing back near your buy rates.

80% loss is not easy to recover especially if you have no plan on how to recover it but I agree with your statement that patience will surely help you to recover or even profit in the long run. As long as you are holding a potential currencies like bitcoin,ethereum and etc. then you still have chance to recover your 80% loss if you are ready to hold for a long term one.

Meaning you need to wait for another bull run in order to sell your investment in either the same price as you bought it or higher to it if the market will continue to obtain a new ATH record.

For me, the question int he OP feels a bit of a loaded one.
Capital for trading and investment shouldn't be a matter of survival, especially with crypto! It should be something of an amount, that based on the trader's income, could be afforded to be lost.

Expecting to always come up with revenues from activities such as trading is an excercice in futility especially when trading new coins. Those cary the most risk as they could go bust very easily. If someone wants to trade regularly with big amounts then markets with the best liquidity and support are the most viable alternative to avert catastrophe like loss of principal capital.

For what reason? Is it because you have a lot of losses? if indeed because of a lot of losses can make it to commit suicide, then it is very silly, because there were also many people who suffered losses but never did anything silly or committed suicide.

[GreenStox]

in mid-2018, the value of all cryptocurrencies decreased and lasted until the end of the year, and at the beginning of 2019 it was the worst, where BTC fell to $ 3200.Those who still hold their coins from the middle of the year now feel safe, with the exception of those who buy at the end of 2017, while still losing 50% of the value of their assets.

You need to stop and evaluate again your plan, find the mistakes and fix it, if needed change it. Even you only have 20% it will be enough to get your fund back, keep optimist and disciplines. I don't agree with " hold " because it's depend market volatility, chose wrong coin and keep hold it will create new bankrupt person. Every strategy need patience but sometimes you need to change it become " cut loss ".

Any new investor makes mistakes when trading in this market but if you take the time to think during the past period, you will gain a lot of new experience. Personally, I have encountered a similar situation in the past and it was actually the most difficult time for me so in the last 2 years I have become more confident and made a lot of good profits.

[xvids]

I think the best way is to do some day trading,
Take some small profit to gain back what you've lost.
But if you can't do or aren't good at making quick trades then I think the only option that you have is to wait for the market to go high again.
Whenever I do short term trades I would take about 2-5% profit and set up my cut loss at 2-5% too.

You're right! The only way out of this situation is exposure and the presence of top cryptocurrencies. However, I also managed to fly to the moon at the end of 2017 and later saw a fall, and also hold some coins from those times in the hope that they will increase their value. But now I understand that the crypto market has moved to a different state and now new cryptocurrencies may not give a price increase at all, but rather go down. To do this, you need to translate everything that you have and what you don’t believe, for example, in BTC and ETH.

Day trading is very risky, if you allso see the flow of the market, it is really hard to predict the outcome of the market, chances for you to take back your losses is really low. I don't think that this is the best way to take back your losses.
It is better to become patient and hold for the mean time until the time that your holdings will increase in price.

[DabsPoorVersion]

You can survive if you will exchange your holdings into a better altcoin,

Seeing a coin that drops more than 80% is more like losing a chance for that coin to go back or maybe it will take a lot of time to grow back.
In this situation, choosing a better altcoin is the best suitable option we have. We can avoid losing all of our funds and we can still have a chance to take it  back by that new altcoin.

Do not have this dangerous attitude my friend. Hope and belief has nothing to do with gambling (and yes,,, trading and losing 80% capital definitely means you have been gambling). I would stop. Clearly trading is not for OP and there is no shame to admit that. Take the 20% and tell yourself you learned a good lesson and you will recover when BTC goes x5:)

[FairUser]

Even in 2019, I lost over 90% of my total investment. But until now I still exist because I tried so hard to earn money. As long as you are not discouraged and give up, you will surely find a way to survive in this market and make a profit from it.
