hold the bag and hope, what else can you do now?
you have no other choice but to become, unwillingly, a long term investor.

I'm a short term trader.
One day I would like to be an investor. However IMO, this is not the time.

How long will I hold my position? I don't know. Might be gone tomorrow in premarket trading or I might hold it for a few weeks.
I got lucky here this morning but sold off most my position into the closing strength.

Only reason I kept any at all was because I believe there still remains potential for good trade. I don't think we've seen an absolute bottom yet.
I could be wrong on all counts too.
