Ever since I've got into cryptocurrency, I've had several experiences on the prices on some of my holdings achieved ATH's in a matter of months alone especially on the 2017 bull market and was thankful I didn't sold out early when I got them. Having had a positive feeling about it, I became reluctant to sell some of these cryptos even at the height of its price thinking that I may gain more from them in the future and also believing that this projects have very good fundamentals and does have a room for growth!
Then at the beginning on the 1st quarter of 2018 (which started the period for bearish market), crypto prices nosedived sharply and in a matter of weeks my portfolio begun to shrunk and was reduced significantly but then again I was overpowered by my belief that crypto will have an eventual rebound in which I was wrong! Over a period of short time, I was forced to sell those cryptocurrencies at a significantly lower price and accepted my loss which led me to believe that hodling is indeed a form of gambling and thus has a risk / reward factors associated with it.
Until now, I don't have any regrets but only have lessons learned from this experiences and will remain having a positive outlook on cryptosphere because I know gambling will let us "win some and also lose some".
I know some of you had already been on the same kind of experience just like me.

Not only hodling but investing in Cryptocurrency is a form of gambling, this is the reason why you should only invest what you can afford to lose, I also experience that not selling some of my coins in their all-time high, I have a lot of opportunities to sell some of my coins and make huge profit, one of these coins is Kucoin it reaches $15, and was hoping that it will reach $50.
Unfortunately, it drops I was on vacation and only find out that it drops significantly after coming from vacation, it's really important to sell some at the right time.
