Trading for 5 points is too risky. When you have a bad trade it will be very difficult to recover your losses.
Instead of reducing your profit and taking 200 quantities, you can reduce the quantity and go for 50 quantities with 20 points. Trading is about mastering both Greed and Fear. It is pure mathematics.
When you play with 5 points, with 4 trades you make 20 points. But with one bad trade with a loss of 20 points, your five winning trades are lost.
So in options and Futures never play with 5 points.
You will not learn. Finally trading is about a positive aggression.
In other words if you are sure that you will never loose more than 5 points then going for 5 points is fine
