I have a protostar.I was wondering if anyone had a tightening problem.There are to arrows that line up on the yoyo that tell you when its tight. The problem is even if I don’t tighten it fully it’s still stable.  
Should I loosen it or does it matter. It came on its tightest setting.

The arrows don’t matter. Just tighten like it seems like you’ve been doing.
