anyone who uses the term "weak hands" is a novice and does not belong in trading.
this term is loaded with emotion. There is no room for emotion in trading. Its not your girlfriend or your wife. Let it go.
Since you don't know when individuals bought the coin, its absurd to say they have "weak hands"
you don't know their trading strategy, account size, or their risk management strategy.
Anyone who holds a coin as the price continues to decline has not strong hands, but a weak mind unable to calculate how much btc they are loosing.
these are the same people who think the price is always manipulated by whales.
Its so much easier to scream "weak hands" or "wales manipulating price" than to actually take a few hours and learn the basics of markets, volume, chart patterns, and price. These people are like a blind dog at a farmers market chasing every scent in every possible direction but not really knowing what the hell is going on.
stop being emotionally and mentally weak. the coin is not your momma, or your girlfriend.
Make a trading plan and follow it. Use risk management and if price falls below your stop loss SELL THE BLOODY COIN and minimize your losses.

sounds like another hubris filled statement from another person who wants to manipulate....weak hands.

sorry to say but you're wrong. metagnosis is just showing you how to be practical and make logical decisions in trading.

bankroll management and minimizing your losses is a must.

Well I don't know if he was specifically talking to me, I do appreciate his concern but I'm doing great already. People can think differently and still make money on trading. Being devoid of emotion and full of greed is not the only solution to the trading game, it just fits perfectly with the current bot/wall street mindset.

I'm just saying that you can't just say that someone who says a specific phrase is a bad trader because just like his example, you don't know who is on the other end. Even if they do say the phrases that he despises.
