Well, I am pretty much newb at this as well but still find myself wondering about this now. Most alts are down very much last few weeks. Seems to make sense to me that people would have sold on the news about getting free Bitcoin Gold. Either to get the free coins or on the expectation of everyone else doing it and prices going down. Now I am not sure how much more there will be drop before these events, so not sure whether to sell some at the dipped prices or just wait until after and see. Should probably follow these news better to react in time..
