No, I believe the OP was using the $1000 to $2000 as an example to say you should always expect double what you are risking. I am saying a better risk should be 1:3 RR. It is surely bad trading to be risking $1000 on a trade if that is all your capital, even if your capital is slightly higher than $1000. If you have a high risk appetite to be risking such an amount, your trading capital has to be huge. If you have a high risk appetite with small trading capital, your account will be liquidated quickly. You trade with a margin as high as $1000 doesn't mean that you are risking everything in that trade, because you can be willing to lose only $100 dollar from that $1000, by placing your stop loss at $100 dollar, but the key reason why you will see a trader using $1000 to trade instead of that $100 is because it's more better to trade with such a high margin, than trading with only the $100 but with 10x leverage that increases your chances of liquidation. So if a trader is talking about risk to reward ratio, he is talking about the amount he is willing to lose, not his entire margin. That means the OP is only misleading people into what is very wrong, he supposed to explain better. There is no need to say 2 times more profit should be what traders should be looking for. If a trader is having $10000 in his trading account and he is risking $1000 to trade, he should still use $10000 for the calculation. I mean having $10000 but using 1000 to trade, to make other people understand, your calculations should still be based on $10000 for other traders to understand.
