I agree. I’d like to remind myself every time I place a trade I could always be wrong. So that makes me want to minimize my exposure by trading smaller lots. So far it works but I’m not going to lie I do get tempted form time to time to trade bigger lots just in case if I was right. So it’s tough to teach yourself that disciple but I guess it’s very crucial
