The moment you accept yourself as a trader. You should stick to your guts, stick to your plan. I know what seems to be the problem now. You are lack pf self confidence and you are indeed scared of any negative results. Make sure you are a risk taker if you want to become successful in trading

Always remember that you must go on with your decisions. If you are kinda hesitant with it, give a break. That is why I am always saying that stop loss is really helpful in this kind of situations (sideways and sudden pump or dump).
