A 50% loss requires a subsequent 100% gain to break even

A 50% loss requires a subsequent 100% gain to break even
A 90% loss requires a subsequent 900% gain to break even. That is a reason why avoiding losses is so important.

Nigga I think your maths are off.

No his maths is correct

dork

You have $100 - you lose 90% of that, you have $10.

To get from $10 to $100, what percentage gain do you need?

>To get from $10 to $100, what percentage gain do you need?
Compound interest or not?

(Change/Starting amount) * 100

( (100-10) / 10) * 100 = 900%

wat

When people like this are trading I start to worry about the bubble being true

Dude nah, your maths is off

You're right. This is why you always buy AFTER the dip

You are right but is not thay bad a coin droping 90% is likely to bounce back and get a new ath if you're lucky unless is a shitcoin if you bought a shitcoin you're fucked

>>subsequent gain
not gain from principle

kek

I hope people are joking...otherwise there are some certified grade A retards on here

Yeah just like EOS right?

get up to 80% in this crypto p&d group discord.gg/tUZVSCv

This is true if you sell at the bottom only. The lesson here is HODL.

Invest in 10 coins $100 each.
9 coins loose 90% and one coin gains 900%.
Tell me the impact on portfolio

+9%

What a dumbass.

You started with 1000 and end up with 990. Thats a loss not a 9% increase.

Yup, this is impact of time and diverse portfolio.
If u give time to good coins then u will gain from it.

Unless of course you buy the dip.
In which case a 50% loss can be regained with a 50% gain. 25% gain if you double down.

Or I just take some new 100$ dollars and make a 90% profit with that. It's not like anybody is ever gambling with all their assets.

900% gain on 100 converts $100 into $1000

Jesus, some of you guys need to learn basic math.

You are starting with say $1000
If you lose down to $100 (90%)
Then you only have $100, getting back to $1000 is hard as fuck, think about it.

Taking losses is bad, very bad.

900% gains on 100 gives a net value of 900? Are you retarded? Breaking even isn't a 100% gain, gains, AS THE WORD FUCKING SUGGESTS, are gains in value, ie profits. If you gain 900 percent on your initial investment of 100 on one coin you now hold 10x that 100, and given the other 9x$10 holds, you have a 9 percent increase in value.

Braindead cunt

really makes you think

> It's not like anybody is ever gambling with all their assets.

No the lesson is don't invest in shit coins

This is what happens when dumb anons try to act too smart for their own good

are you all fucking retarded?????

if you bought at 10 sat and it goes to 5sat just wait it goes back to buying price. if you re holding shitcoins it will never tho and u fuked

BUT if you can avoid that loss you can rebuy at the low and make 10x more gains
It's very easy, you just have to time the market

he's right you fucking mongo
I swear this board has more retards than /b/

Yeah I'm agreeing with him you fucking moron

literally every pink wojak ever posted on here

reeeee percentages are the work of jews and sjws eeeee
