Atm I can only stream 185-200 bpm with OK acc. below 185 bpm ill get like 60-70% acc on the streams cause i cant control my speed. Above 200 bpm is just too fast for me..
For slower streams try pressing down on your keys harder. I don't know if it's just me, but I find it much easier to regulate speed if I use more force.
For faster streams (assuming you have linear key switches) try not to bottom out the keys. I try to only push it as far as the actuation point. It's a little harder to be accurate when pressing lightly however.

should I change the keys I use?
What keys you use doesn't really matter, just use what feels best to you. (I use F and G)

When I practise my streams I often dont know what to play should I play maps with long streams or maps with short streams and should I start with really low bpm (120-140) or bpm just below my comfort level (175-180).
It seems everyone has a different way of learning in osu! so I can't really say for sure. Personally, "garbage long stream practice maps" seemed to help quite a bit, along with just regular streamy maps of course. I used the long stream practice maps to build stamina and I play maps like Ice Angel, Defenders, etc. to practice overall control. As far as what bpm to practice, I usually played the fastest bpm I could without completley getting rekt.
I'm no pro player so I could be wrong, but I
am pretty confident in my streaming ability. Hope this helps!
