I wonder if you HODL because you believe the price will go up? Or are you lost too much already so you don't see any reason to sell because you won't be satisfied with the money you will cash out?
I have this self-conflict for a few months already
Many do not sell their bitcoins because they believe that the price will rise and it will be possible to earn more money, some simply do not know what will be right, sell or hold the coins. It seems to me that you can leave some of the coins for the future, and use some for trading.
