What is a Risk/Reward Calculator?

A risk/reward calculator compares the distance from entry to stop with the distance from entry to target. It helps traders evaluate whether a planned reward reasonably compensates for the amount at risk before placing a trade.

Formula

Risk/reward ratio = Potential reward ÷ Potential risk

Example calculation

Entry at $100, stop at $95 and target at $110 produces $5 risk and $10 reward per share, or a 1:2 risk/reward profile.

How to use this tool responsibly

  • Calculate before entering.
  • Do not move a stop only to improve the displayed ratio.
  • Consider realistic fill prices.
