Risk/Reward Calculator

Calculate risk-to-reward ratio, expected value, and breakeven win rate.

R:R Ratio 1 : 3.00
Expected Value $1.00
Breakeven WR 25.00%

Why this matters

If you risk $5 to make $3, you need to win 63% just to break even. This calculator shows you before you enter whether the math is on your side.

Looks obvious, actually bad

Entry $100, stop at $95, target $103. That's 1:0.6. Even at 55% win rate, your EV is negative. You'd slowly bleed money.

Looks scary, prints money

Entry $100, stop at $97, target $112. That's 1:4. You only need to win 20% to break even. Be wrong 2 out of 3 times and still profit.
