What happens in this moment

First of all, you could scale a few different ways. You can scale by increasing the account size, right? More money. So maybe you started your account with a thousand bucks. Maybe now you put in 5,000 or you put in 10,000. So you're actually growing the amount of money in the account. Another option is actually increasing the percentage that you're risking per trade. When you're learning, you might only be risking .25 to .5 percent. Now we're going to up that maybe to 1 percent or even 2 percent per trade. So you're scaling up how much you're risking on every trade. If you're risking a static amount, like I was showing you with my trading journal, where it's a hundred thousand dollar account, but I'm risking 2k per trade, that's 2k, no matter how big the account is, maybe you go from static to using the actual account balance.
