Risk reward calculator

Estimate the distance from entry to stop and target so every trade has a planned R profile.

Result

Ready

Enter your numbers to get a clean trading estimate.

Plan the loss first

A clean R:R check forces the stop loss to be visible before you focus on profit.

Compare setups

Use the same R scale across forex, crypto, indices, and prop firm trades.

Journal the result

Save the R multiple with your screenshot so review days are easier and less emotional.

How to use it

Turn the ratio into a trade note.

A risk-reward number is useful only when it improves the decision. Save the result beside your screenshot, setup, mistake tag, and lesson so your journal becomes searchable later.

1. Add entry and stop

Use the real planned entry and invalidation level, not the level you wish price respected.

2. Add target

Enter the first target you would actually take, then compare the reward to the risk.

3. Save the context

Put the setup, session, mistake, and R multiple into your journal after the trade.

Common questions

Risk reward calculator FAQ

What is a good risk reward ratio?

Many traders look for at least 1:2, but the right ratio depends on win rate, setup quality, and execution discipline.

Should I take every high R:R trade?

No. A high R:R trade still needs a valid setup, clear invalidation, and enough liquidity to execute well.

Can I use this for prop firm trades?

Yes. Use it together with daily loss and max loss rules so a single idea does not break the challenge.
