you're arguing semantics. profit loss = trade size multiplied by leverage.
If you use low trade sizes, with high leverage, you are gambling on small movements in the price. BTC goes up 1 sat, you make or lose 10 dollars.
If you use high trade sizes, with low leverage, you are basically owning the asset. You own 1 BTC and it goes up 1 dollar, you make 1 dollar..

Reducing risk to 2% per trade just means it takes longer to blow up your account. The math is still against you. Moonboys will never stay on 2% though because they quickly realize they'll only make pennies a day doing that. That's the scam. Making $1 a day on low leverage is not attractive, making it rich quick on lottery ticket trades is enticing.
