I found out using lot sizes scare me most emotional even when I understand what I'm doing

Have you ever been scared using big lot size even when you know your trading strategy is 80% accurate.

Offcourse because bad decision and the bad trade takes out the money from my account.

Then the problem is to get back even.

To get there I think about even larger lot size but then the trade signal does not look like 80% accurate.
Fingers start to tremble a litlle bit.

I still scared every trade. Last 6 months though I believe in myself and my tp and sl

80% accurate but what risk/reward?

My risk/reward is 1-3% but sometimes it vary depends on the support and resistance level.

I can relate.

No. Because I trade in %s. So no matter what my lot size is, I only ever risk 1% of my account. Which in the whole scheme of things is absolutely nothing lol. Just 1%.
