2. Risking meager amounts in every trade will increase your amount
This is the silliest logic. Some foolish traders believe that if they risk 1-2% on every trade then their accounts will grow. If you start trading with a very small amount and lose 4-5 trades in a series then your account will not grow. The amount you risk will appear very small in front of your losses in trade. % risk model has its own drawback. You can win all your trades in the beginning and might lose a series of trades. All your gains will be wiped out in this process. But then it has a flip side to it. It will check you from trading emotionally. So risking a small percentage on every trade will make you gains slower because it will take a long time to build up your amount if you risk less. If you risk less, you gain less and this is the logic.
