Who is LAMM/RAMM for?

LAMM and RAMM appeal to investors who want to know exactly what reaches their account.

Who should look at LAMM

If your capital is comparable to the manager’s and you want one-to-one trade replication, LAMM is the simplest form. Just weigh the relative effect of lot sizes against your own capital.

Who should look at RAMM

If you have smaller capital or want less risk, a low RAMM multiplier shrinks the trades for you. Conversely, with higher risk appetite a bigger multiplier is your choice — with all of its consequences.

In both cases, read the manager’s sourced record and terms. Start comparing with the LAMM/RAMM list and the methods guide.

Frequently asked questions

For very small capital, RAMM or PAMM? If the broker and terms allow, low-multiplier RAMM is more flexible for small capital; but choosing the manager remains the biggest decision.

When is LAMM dangerous? When your capital is far smaller than the manager’s and the same lot size is repeated; the relative effect on you becomes oversized.

Do fees apply in LAMM/RAMM too? Yes; fees and settlement terms are set by that manager’s account.

What if I am still torn between LAMM and RAMM? Return to the two variables: your capital ratio to the manager, and your risk tolerance. If the capitals are comparable, LAMM gives a simpler picture; if yours is smaller, RAMM with a low ratio makes more sense. Being torn usually means you have not yet written one of these two variables down for yourself.
