Trade Planning
Risk Reward Calculator
Estimate the relationship between planned risk and potential reward before opening a trade. Use the output as a planning reference, not a recommendation.
Scenario Inputs
The calculator uses absolute price distance, so it can estimate long or short scenarios. It does not account for slippage, commissions, taxes, borrow fees, liquidity, partial exits, or changing stops.
Compare scenarios
Small changes in stop distance or target price can materially change the ratio and break-even win rate.
Pair with sizing
A strong ratio does not control risk by itself. Pair it with position sizing and a defined risk budget.
Account for execution
Real fills can differ from planned prices because of spreads, slippage, liquidity, and market gaps.
Educational use only
This calculator is for research and education. It does not tell you whether a trade is attractive, whether to buy or sell, or how much risk is appropriate for your financial situation.
