The best way to recover loss in my opinion are first invest only in stable coin those in the top 20 in coinmarket cap. I keep buying when price continue to fall to lower my buying average. And never ever try to go on hyped coins it can ruin more your investment the risk is very high in hype coins not recommended for newbie trader.
I think that a loss once can be instrumental in aiding you avoid the same mistakes again and there are more chances next time that you will win. You can recover the losses and on the average go above in terms of profits than the negative profits you have incurred.
Currently the best coins in the market should be your target and they can really be grate in giving some handsome return.
