"If it gets to $100 I can finally buy that island I've been looking at!"
To confirm that you are on the right track to take a peek at your portfolio and
"Holy dear mother of god"....
The price is low and getting lower by the second. There are a few things you can do:
1) Go into 'Gordon Gecko' Mode
One time your friend told you about how the candles work and you remember something about an article you read once that said that thing on the chart means a bull flag? Or wait was that when you sell? Oh shit. Well you do have live charts on your phone and desktop and you're almost completely sure you've got that arbitraging worked out as soon as you learn to code so all you have to do is trust your gut and you'll inevitably wind up 'buying the dip' and telling everyone how your brand new mcmansion is practically paid for.
2) Go into 'Anxiety Zombie' Mode
Yes, this one is a blast. You try to stay strong but the inside of your brain is doing unnecessary math and trying to factor in how much it would either benefit you to sell right now and then double up later with the money you make from selling your collection of half used vape juice in the linen closet.
"Also, I wonder how much ransom we could get for the neighbors dog?"
The important point here is to be less talkative but then when you do say something it's filled with anxiety and trails off into a diatribe about the blockchain.
Do a test sell order, then stop it. Then get anxious about stopping it. It's fun.
3) Go into 'Smart Guy' Mode
You remember why you bought into the things you did. Yes, yes the islands but also you dug the idea. For good god sake that coin that uses the blockchain to anonymize your porn surfing is worth it. And you know what, PornCoin has a nice ring to it. Keep on HODL'ing my good human and then you can get that island, or at least Islanders season tickets and maybe, just maybe, a little bit more sanity.
As a side note I recommend option 3 although sometimes I go full 1 or 2, sometimes at the same time.
