#RiskRewardRatio **#RiskRewardRatio** is a core concept in trading that helps you evaluate whether a trade is worth taking based on potential loss vs. potential gain.
### **What is Risk-Reward Ratio (RRR)?**
It’s the ratio between how much you *risk* and how much you *expect to gain*.
**Formula:**
`Risk-Reward Ratio = Potential Loss / Potential Profit`
### **Example:**
- You enter a trade at $100.
- Stop-loss is at $95 (risking $5).
- Take-profit is at $115 (potential gain is $15).
**RRR = 5 / 15 = 1:3**
You're risking $1 to potentially make $3.
### **Why It Matters:**
- A good RRR means you don’t need to win all the time to be profitable.
- With a 1:3 RRR, even if you’re right only 33% of the time, you can still make money.
### **Tips:**
- Aim for at least **1:2 or higher** depending on your strategy.
- Combine RRR with **win rate** for a full edge.
- Don’t force trades to fit a ratio—look for setups that naturally align.
