Can I grow a $1000 account to $100K?

Mathematically yes. At 5 percent monthly compound growth a 1000 dollar account reaches approximately 18000 in 5 years without withdrawals or additional deposits. To reach 100K faster you would need higher returns or to add capital along the way. Most traders combine trading returns with additional deposits.

When should I increase my position size?

Increase position size at every 25 percent account growth milestone. If you start at 1 percent risk with a 5000 dollar account maintain 1 percent risk as the account grows — the dollar amount per trade increases naturally with account growth.
