Frequently Asked Questions

What is the R:R ratio and why does it matter?

Risk/Reward ratio is how much you stand to gain for every dollar you risk. A 3:1 ratio means a $300 potential gain on a $100 risk. Most systematic traders require at least 2:1 before entering — below that, you need a very high win rate just to break even.

How is position size calculated?

Position size = (account balance × risk %) ÷ |entry − stop-loss|. This ensures that if your stop is hit, you lose exactly your risk budget — no more. The calculation is independent of leverage.

What does the verdict mean?

Strong (≥3:1) — excellent setup, reward clearly justifies the risk. Good (≥2:1) — solid, acceptable for most strategies. Marginal (≥1.5:1) — borderline, consider tightening the stop or widening the target. Poor (<1.5:1) — the reward does not justify the risk at current levels.

What is liquidation distance?

How far price must move from your entry before the exchange force-closes your position. A wider distance means more buffer. It depends on leverage and the exchange maintenance margin rate (MMR). Lower leverage = wider liquidation distance.
