Well if Ballard at current prices is a good thing buy more.
Or is it too risky for you to buy now? At $10 Ballard could
only drop $10. At $160 Ballard can drop $160. In my world
the investment risk is higher at $160.

Invest $1.000 into a stock at $10, same amount into a stock at $160. Both base at $0. What's the difference? Risk is not in share price, but in your own capital: Falling from $1000 to $0. (Remarks aimed at the original poster, not you, Meghan.)

What does weigh more: one kilogram of iron or one kilogram of feathers? :-)
