>>> Obviously it is better to use less capital to make the same money, but that can't be helped sometimes. <<<

Using this strategy in managing money will make one a loser over the long run. The law of probability says you don't put 80 cents at risk to make 20 cents. You put 20 cents at risk to earn 80 cents.

An amateur looks to profits, a professional manages risk. Take care of risk and the profits come. Focus on profit by taking on additional risk, and one will eventually give back everything they gained.

Your dollar for dollar example increases risk exponentially.
