I think I have mine set correctly, I am trying to break some bad habits of involuntary movement of the machine sort of leaning on it and flipping
for competition play I had lost a LOT of games that way
I can make a movement to get the ball out of danger with a nudge but if I shift the machine to hard it will tilt
Quoted from Durzel:For example, on TZ, I quite often lose balls down the left off the pops. Frustrating, yes, but luck is a valid part of the game for me - even when it goes against you.
The only concession I'd be happy to make is where young children are playing.
luck favors the skilled in my experience. (Generally always in my opponents favor 
) Proper nudging skills are part of the game as well.
Quoted from GotAQuestion:I set it differently game to game. I believe each game has a different level of nudging that should be appropriate. Not every game has the same rule set or layout, not every game should have the same level of tilt strictness either.
PAPA provides a list of recommended game setups for tournaments that frequently mentions tilt tightness, and I think their tilt recommendations are generally great: https://papa.org/learning-center/directors-guide/
Game Notes on that page.
Some great insight about adjusting the game so it is balanced between those more skilled aiming & those more skilled at recovering.
