I'm pretty sure you're just suffering from variance. My suggestion would be to play some Turbo 45 man sit-n-gos, preferably omaha if you can find them. This should cut down your variance incredibly.

How many is quite a few? If you're new to sngs you're probably at best BE at the $5.50s. The thinking that you should move up where ppl respect your raises is the opposite way to think. As you move up you're not going to see someone 4 bet all in pf with QJs when you have AA at the 10/20 blinds as much, or ppl calling off their whole stack with 2nd pair. You want that to happen, the nature of the beast is if you play bad sng players you'll show down more hands that are big favs and have times where a majority of them lose.

My guess is that your bubble play isn't all that good yet (I'm still working on mine) if you haven't turned a profit given a big enough sample size.
