I read that in order to break the trace from the sender of my Monero to the recipient of my Monero, I need to make several transactions between my wallets, for example:

someone sent me 1 XMR --> my wallet 1 --> my wallet 2 --> recipient of my 1 XMR

(that i consider 1 additional transaction in aim to break the trace)

Can anyone explain so even layman understands chance/probability of breaking the trace when doing 0,1,2 such transactions between own wallets?

    I would argue that splitting an input into 2 outputs that’ll both go in the same wallet and could be used together would severely harm your privacy and make tracing easier

      I have just a shallow understanding of XMR
      With one Input and two Output you would set two addresses of the anonymity set.
      With time correlation tecniques etc an attacker might be abel to infer traces.
      Also you cant use this combination, or any of these out keys again.
      Increasing the anonynity set makes a transaction stand out even more.
