Yeah, this is a misunderstanding. Obviously, you can't risk $375, if you're only shooting for $62.50.
Think of each unit added as a new trade. On the 1st unit (or trade), we're risking 5 ticks...

Not trying to start an argument, and I do appreciate your help, but I didn't really feel I was "adding to a losing position" or "averaging down". I had a stop at $375 or 1.5% of the account. It was...
