In my opinion lot size alone is all relative to the size of one's account. I think you see way too many with small undercapitalized accounts trading way too many lots for the size of their account. But, I also think for the most part these are the traders who are trying to hit home runs, double up, etc..... And there is a lot of crash and burn in trading like that.

My typical trade is 3 lots/pair and at any given time I will have 2-3 trades going on. I trade a $300K plus account and feel very comfortable with this

3+3+3 =9 so your total largest volume on daily basis is 9 ,

which is perfectly normal volume on on 300k account , you never went for 10 or 20 lots.
