The reward-to-risk ratio (RRR) is like your hype meter 📈 for a trade’s potential gains versus the chill level of its risk of loss. 🤑

This ratio is basically calculated by dividing the expected glow-up money 💵 by the cash you might part ways with. 😬

Picture this: you’re vibing with the idea of making $100 by diving into EUR/USD trends. 💶

If you throw down a stop-loss to keep your loss at a max of $25, your vibe check is a reward-to-risk ratio of 4:1 (100 / 25). 🚀

  2. Suss out the distance between your entry and your stop loss (SL). That’s your “Potential Risk“ 📏
  3. Suss out the distance between your entry and your profit target (PT). That’s your “Potential Reward“. 💰
  4. Do the magic math 🧙‍♂️: Potential Reward / Potential Risk
