Scaling up trade size — how do you manage the mental game?
Been trading micro lots for a while, just starting to move into standard lots on $EURUSD. The percentage risk is the same, but the dollar value feels… different. Logically I know it's just a number, but the psychological hurdle is real. For those who've made that leap, what was your biggest mental adjustment, and how did you overcome it?

It's completely normal to feel that shift. I found that strictly sticking to my defined risk per trade, regardless of the lot size, helped quiet the mental noise. Focusing on the process rather than the potential dollar outcome on any single trade was key for me.
