I can relate. The going too large and going to revenge. It is ugly. It is embarrasing. The truth with me was that my Ego wanted to impress others and they really did not care. So, I am leaning toward balance. Will not trade everyday and going to trade small.
Sorry to hear about your account and I believe you are braver and have more potential than you though a few months ago when you posted about the crap day.

Would agree the Mind is your biggest Helper or Drag. So, working on that is Key.

In terms of Edge, Is edge anything other than bottling up an algo and letting it run in a system???

To me, an Edge is truly something you know that is not widely known or accepted by most other traders, allowing you to get into a move before it is obvious to everyone, which is usually the point when that move starts to end.
