There are two traders.
The first trader opens a position of 0.10 lots and closes it with a profit of 30.0 pips, earning $30.
The second trader opens a position of 0.01 lots and closes it with a profit of 300.0 pips, also earning $30.
Both traders apply a risk-to-reward ratio of 1:1.

Personally, I prefer the second trader’s approach. Although the first trader has a shorter trading period, there is still the risk of a moment where market movement could be twice as fast as usual. If this happens, their initial $30 profit could turn into a loss of more than $60 if the market moves against them.

On the other hand, the second trader, despite having a longer trade duration, is in a safer position. A longer target allows for greater tolerance against rapid market movements, especially when using a smaller lot size.

Overall, both traders have the same profit target of $30, but their risk profiles are very different.

I personally don’t like large lot sizes; it’s not good for heart health. Especially when there are other tasks to handle, it feels uncomfortable to leave a trade open with a large lot.

I’m just a small trader, and even if my funds grow in the future, I would still prefer smaller lot sizes. They don’t make me anxious when trades are left open because of other obligations.
