\u201cMake more when you\u2019re right. Lose less when you\u2019re wrong.\u201d \u2013 That\u2019s the core of profitable trading.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

\ud83c\udfaf Lesson Objective<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This lesson helps you understand how using support and resistance (S\/R) levels can help you identify high reward\u2013low risk<\/strong> trades through a simple but powerful tool: the risk-to-reward ratio (RRR)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

\ud83d\udcca What is Risk-to-Reward Ratio (RRR)?<\/h2>\n

The Risk-to-Reward Ratio<\/strong> compares how much you risk (potential loss) vs. how much you stand to gain (potential profit).<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    A 3:1 ratio<\/strong> means you\u2019re risking 1 unit to gain 3 units.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    If you\u2019re wrong, you lose 70 pips.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    If you\u2019re right, you gain 210 pips.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The higher the reward relative to the risk<\/strong>, the fewer winning trades<\/strong> you need to be profitable overall.<\/p>\n

    \ud83e\udde0 Why It Matters<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Even with a low win rate, you can be profitable if your wins are larger than your losses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    \n

    For example:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

      10 trades with 30% win rate (3 out of 10)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Each win earns $600<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Each loss costs $200
      \u2705 Profit = $1800 \u2013 $1400 = $400<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n

          \n

          \u201cRRR isn\u2019t about being right more often \u2014 it\u2019s about being smart when you\u2019re wrong<\/strong> and disciplined when you\u2019re right<\/strong>.
