it's ok if you bought your dash with USD, but if you traded it with bitcoins you actually lost way more than 50

>Buy XEM @ 11k
>hold for 50 days while it falls to 5500
>sell @ 5500
>it's at 7800 a day later, even higher now
At least I bought Bitcoin Cash @ $200 with the money... but still...

Well it was my first week, so I was trading it in USDT to DASH on Polo at the time. Anyway I had plenty of other holdings, but I remember that as my first real lesson in crypto to research good coins and then just hold.
I fucking hate Dash now though and would never touch it again.

honestly I've only had two good trades and 10+ bad ones.
sold bitcoin cash for 0.096 last night, that was dumb, was obviously going to break out
I make a lot of mistakes when I get emotional

Also didnt buy bitcoin when it was $1 a coin because I didnt know how exchanges worked
