### Comment:
Averaging down means to be putting more money into this sinking ship, to lower your average cost, in hopes of it rebounding and turning a profit or reducing your losses. 
  
 Honestly, if you didn't know what that was you probably shouldn't be playing with options.

Ohhhhhh, k. What if you don't sell and hold and this stock shoots up and you've got a good profit, is that realistic? Why not do that, eventually it has to go back up right?
