Calculate the trade in R before the P&L tricks you.

Dollars are noisy. R-multiple tells you whether the trade paid for the risk you accepted. Use this before journaling a setup or reviewing a losing day.

How to read it

Use the output as a review prompt, not a signal.

  • Above +2R: strong trade if the setup followed plan.
  • Between 0R and +1R: small positive outcome, review whether management was efficient.
  • Below -1R: rule violation unless slippage or gap risk explains it.

Risk disclosure

This tool is educational. It does not place trades, recommend trades, or know your personal financial situation. Trading stocks, options, futures and crypto involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. You can lose more than you invest in leveraged products. Only trade money you can afford to lose. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
