Risk $200.00, reward $400.00. Break-even win rate 33.3%. Take-profit price 1.08400 40 pips from entry Stop distance: 20 pips Risk / reward in dollars $200.00 / $400.00 Before commission Break-even win rate 33.3% Win more often than this at 1:2 and the trades are net positive before costs Spread, commission and slippage are not deducted. How it works ## The formula behind the numbers. The stop sets the risk. The ratio sets how far away the target is. The two together set the win rate the trade needs. **Stop distance** = |entry − stop loss|. **Take profit** = entry + stop distance × R for a long, entry − stop distance × R for a short. **Break-even win rate** = 1 ÷ (1 + R): at that win rate the winners exactly pay for the losers, before costs. **Worked example.** Long 1 lot of EUR/USD at 1.08000 with a stop at 1.07800 is a 20-pip stop, or $200 at risk. At 1:2 the target sits 40 pips away at 1.08400, worth $400, and the trade breaks even winning 33.3% of the time. Short 0.2 lots of gold at 3,500 with a stop at 3,510 risks $200; at 1:1.5 the target is 3485.00 for $300. A ratio says what a trade pays if it works. It says nothing about how often it works - that part is the strategy, and no calculator supplies it. Reference ## Break-even win rate by ratio. The win rate each reward-to-risk ratio needs just to break even, before spread and commission. | Reward to risk | Break-even win rate | 20-pip stop: target distance | | --- | --- | --- | | 1:0.5 | 66.7% | 10 pips | | 1:1 | 50.0% | 20 pips | | 1:1.5 | 40.0% | 30 pips | | 1:2 | 33.3% | 40 pips | | 1:3 | 25.0% | 60 pips | | 1:4 | 20.0% | 80 pips | The rules behind the maths ## Where this meets a GFN account. The dollars at risk are what a stopped-out trade takes from the day. On a $100,000 1 Step the daily loss limit is $5,000, so a $200 stop uses 4% of it - and commission counts too. - [Daily Loss Limit Rules](https://getfundednow.com/rules/daily-loss-limit) - What is the daily loss limit? - [Commission and Costs](https://getfundednow.com/rules/commission) - What does trading cost? - [Margin and Lot Size Rules](https://getfundednow.com/rules/margin-and-lot-size) - Is there a maximum lot size? - [$100,000 1 Step account](https://getfundednow.com/challenges/1-step/100k) - The daily loss limit and drawdown, in dollars. - [Forex profit calculator](https://getfundednow.com/tools/profit-calculator) - The dollar result of any entry and exit. - [Risk of ruin calculator](https://getfundednow.com/tools/risk-of-ruin-calculator) - What a win rate and ratio do over many trades. Common questions ## Risk and reward, answered. Measure the distance from entry to stop, multiply it by the reward-to-risk ratio you want, and add it to the entry for a long or subtract it for a short. There is no single answer. It depends on the win rate: a 1:1 trade needs to win more than half the time, a 1:2 trade more than a third, a 1:3 trade more than a quarter - before costs. You stand to make twice what you stand to lose. With a 20-pip stop, the target is 40 pips away. The dollars at risk are what the trade takes out of the day's loss buffer if the stop is hit. On a GFN 1 Step account the daily loss limit is 5% of the starting balance, and commission counts toward it. Ready when you are ## Your capital stays yours. The risk is ours.
