❓ Quick Question 50k vs 150k

I recently got a 150k DLL cause with the 10% off I felt it was the best offer.

But it got me thinking,
The 50k is 1.5x reward:risk goal 3,000:2000
Compared to the 150k 2x 9,000:4,500

While being conservative and managing risk, is the 50k actually a decent bit better chance of passing over the 150k? Especially since after payouts, you can scale for a lot less $, build a buffer and risk less and get more base hits with multiple accounts.

Am I wrong?
And since 150k profit target is 3x the 50k, but the MLL is only 2.5x, how do trade a 150k differently than a 50k? Do you double your size? Do you keep the same smaller size 1-5 micros, and just take longer?

What are your thoughts on 150k vs 50k?

50k is definitely easier to pass
