What is this tool?

The Risk/Reward Calculator measures how much you stand to gain versus lose on a trade — the core metric for evaluating setup quality before sizing a position.

Enter entry and stop loss — the tool computes risk per unit and risk as % of price.

Add a take profit to see the R:R ratio, reward distance and break-even win rate.

How to read the results

Add a take profit to see the R:R ratio, reward distance and break-even win rate.

Set a target R:R (e.g. 2) to get the take-profit price required to hit that ratio.

Optional risk USD shows dollar reward at each R-multiple in the scenario table.

Load a PEPS trade plan to pre-fill entry, stop and TP from Trend Following or Breakout engines.

Key signals and metrics

Set a target R:R (e.g. 2) to get the take-profit price required to hit that ratio.

Optional risk USD shows dollar reward at each R-multiple in the scenario table.

Load a PEPS trade plan to pre-fill entry, stop and TP from Trend Following or Breakout engines.

Advanced usage and combinations

Formula: R:R = |TP − entry| / |entry − stop|. Long stops must be below entry; short stops above.

Break-even win rate = 1 / (1 + R) — e.g. 1:2 needs ~33% winners to break even before fees.

This tool does not size positions — use Position Size Calculator for units and margin.

Frequently asked questions

How reliable are the signals from this tool?
Treat every reading as a hypothesis. Strong setups usually agree across multiple rows, timeframes or linked PEPS engines — not from a single highlighted value alone.
Is this tool suitable for beginners?
Yes. Start with one symbol or one ranked row, read the labels and confirmation panels, then open linked tools before sizing a live position.
How often is the data updated?
Refresh cadence depends on the engine — many trading scanners update every few minutes; on-chain and mining feeds may run on hourly timers. Check the Updated timestamp on the tool page.
