Most traders aim for at least 1:2 (risking $1 to make $2). A 1:3 ratio is considered strong. Even with a 40% win rate, a 1:3 R:R is profitable. Anything below 1:1 means you need to win more than 50% of the time just to break even.
R:R = (Target Price - Entry Price) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss). For a long trade: entry at $100, stop loss at $95, target at $115 = ($115 - $100) / ($100 - $95) = $15 / $5 = 1:3 ratio.
The minimum win rate needed to not lose money at a given R:R ratio. Formula: Breakeven Win Rate = 1 / (1 + R:R). At 1:2 R:R, you only need to win 33.3% of trades to break even. At 1:1, you need 50%.
Yes. For short trades, your stop loss is above entry and your target is below entry. The calculator handles both directions — it uses absolute values to compute the ratio correctly.
