Frustrated with no results

Started my "improved" strategy this week. Did some backtesting and it turned out pretty good. When i switched to using this strategy live, i start with small quantities and they move slow but i do end up getting my profit goal of 0.10-0.20 per trade. Once i size up under very close conditions my trades just turn to shit. I think my issue is that i am waiting for confluence before entering these trades which makes me miss where my real entry point should've been. 

Confluence ? Edge

I have to figure out what my core triggers are and enter a trade based off of that and THEN size up once i get confluence. I think. Now that i wrote that out it sounds counterproductive because then id just end up doing the same thing i was doing before but with a smaller position beforehand.

Im really frustrated and I feel like im gonna blow up. i try to walk away from my computer when im tilted but it is very difficult because all i end up doing is thinking about it the entire time i am away from it.

Im unsure about what lesson i even learned today. I gotta reflect over this weekend and figure out what went wrong.
