5k hands is like nothing so your winrate is likely off. Just really depends how you're comfortable with moving down back down rather than grinding at a stake you're getting owned at trying to rostucko. I usually do around a 5-8bi stoploss too when I take a shot.

If it were me, I'd take a shot at a higher stake if I have the roll for it. The jump between stakes isn't that big at micros. If I feel like I'm doing poorly at the limit or hit my stop loss, I'd just drop down.
