Risk management calculator

Risk-Reward Ratio Calculator

Enter an intended entry, stop, and target. The calculator compares the absolute price distance to the stop with the distance to the target.

Reward : risk

2.00 : 1

Price risk 5.0000 · potential reward 10.0000

Formula

Reward-to-risk ratio = target distance ÷ stop distance.

Important limitations

  • •A larger ratio does not automatically mean a better trade.
  • •The calculation does not estimate the probability that the target or stop will be reached.
  • •Spread, slippage, commissions, gaps, and partial fills are not included.
