Calculate your R:R ratio, minimum win rate to break even, and expected value per trade.
R:R Ratio

Break-Even Win Rate = 1 ÷ (1 + R:R Ratio)
Example: At 2:1 R:R → Break-even win rate = 1 ÷ (1 + 2) = 33.3%
A higher R:R ratio means you can be profitable with a lower win rate. Most professional traders target ≥1.5:1 R:R on every trade.
