Missing some nice trade is part and parcel of trading. Each trader have same feeling many times.

Sure, but I wasn't placing orders for fear of large drawdowns and large drawdowns would damage my confidence. I would find some excuse not to place the order. Risking approx 0.5% eliminates that fear for me.
