# Risk of ruin calculator: your real odds of blowing an account.

Win rate and reward:risk alone don't tell the whole story - the size of your losing streaks does. This runs thousands of simulated sequences of your own trading stats to estimate your real risk of ruin.

How it works

## A real simulation, not a guess.

Risk of ruin doesn't have a simple formula once wins and losses are different sizes, so this runs an actual Monte Carlo simulation instead of a shortcut.

This runs 1,000 independent simulated sequences of your trades, each one risking your chosen percentage of the current balance on every trade - so a losing streak shrinks your risk in dollar terms the same way it would in a real account. A run counts as “ruined” the moment balance drops to or below your ruin threshold.

This is a statistical estimate based on the win rate and reward:risk ratio you enter - real trading results vary and are not guaranteed to match your historical stats going forward.
