Need opinions on what am I doing wrong?
So, I've been playing for a year very on/off. Especially recently I've studied a lot watching youtube and playing with gtowizards free version so I know something about theory but somehow I am losing player in NL2. When I played like over six months ago I managed to break even / slightly win with rakeback at NL10 but now no matter what I do I lose. I post some stats so maybe you, more experienced players, could help me beat these stakes and fix my leaks. Notice that these ~20k hands are only the most recent ones, I have totally played around 100k hands but didn't include them as this is kind of fresh start. Feel free to ask anything that might help you find the mistake(s) I'm making

RFI too tight, calling too much vs 3b in some spots overfolding in others, your check back range is gutted. Way overfolding BB.
Most who crush 2nl and 5nl have red line losing and blue (grey) line winning, so I'd guess your approach may be wrong for these stakes. I really think crushing these stakes is almost a separate game in terms of strategy and how to apply theory that if you aim to move up in stakes and already have the money it may be counterintuitive to spend your time learning how to do it.
Thanks for your answer. So what would you suggest for me to do here since? Continue playing and trying to beat these stakes (but how?) or do something else, even quit poker? I don't have bankroll big enough to start from nl10 etc where the game starts to look more like what i've been studied so I have no clue what to do.
I aim to bet mostly for value here but somehow my redline is much higher than the grey one which seems odd. Seems that somehow I end up in showdowns with hands that doesn't really beat anything.

What site and format are you playing? How many tables?
If you want can send me a .zip through pm of last 500 hands and I will go through it. I'm a microstakes player so would benefit me also.

Playing on Pokerstars. Mostly 2 tables at the same time. Sounds great if I could send em but seems that my account is still not able to send pms
Post some hands https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/69/on... until you can PM.
I recently moved up from 2NL to 5NL( on GG poker) and like the other dude said:
Positive blue line, slightly losing red line.
Value bet when you have something and fold when you dont. Sounds boring but atleast it's winning poker in micro's nowadays.
Hire a coach! ImmortalCedrique is a good option for lowstakes on a budget https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/290/c...
My advice for you is to fold alot more on the flop and turn. Also you could open less from the utq and more from btn. Don`t feel obligated to 3bet marginal hands.
Interesting red line is positive and grey is negative
