RISK REWARD RATIO - Trade like a professional.

[@kapitalidea]

I have honestly learned more from your channel than any other trading channel on KZbin! I can’t thank you enough! In 2020 I decided to learn how to lose weight, I lost 75 pounds and have kept it off. In August of 2021 I decided to learn how to make money in the Stock market. I found your channel 3 months ago roughly and have designed a strategy based on your videos and I’m up with just under 40% returns in that time. I cut losers quickly and let winners run with a strategic understanding of a exit point. I absolutely love your videos! This is the best channel on KZbin as far as I’m concerned! Thank you 🙏 so damn much for your time and teachings! You have my utmost respect and loyalty!

[@FinancialWisdom]

Wow that's great feedback thank you! Glad to know you are gaining or should I say losing 😊

[@ddtrader1755]

for me it is the other way around. I have lost 7.5K in cash and gained 40% in fat.

[@Yan-rh7mj]

Reward to Risk is definitely the cornerstone of my strategy. Everything else should be working for it. Momentum, tight setups, timing, relative strength, industries and market conditions. Great video. Thanks.

[@FinancialWisdom]

Well said!

[@kippsguitar6539]

Yes but do you make money!!

[@Yan-rh7mj]

@@kippsguitar6539 That's right, we trade for money but the primary goal is to find great trades, positive balances between reward and risk, and money will follow. We can't expect to earn money at all cost ! Not here to tell how much I profit or lose :D Wish you the very best.

Sir, probability is also is important R:R 1:2.25 has 25℅ probability of hitting target and R:R 1:1.33 has 40% probability of hitting target.

its all dependent on the way you trade and how you enter aka your accuracy of entries and time spent in a trade

[@ianbrown5955]

I have an RR of 2:1 win/loss ratio with a 40% to 50% win rate, month to month. 6% to 15% gains per month depending on number of set-ups I get. Forex market at the moment (EUR/USD)

[@ianbrown5955]

With those ratios and win rates, you wouldn't profit.

[@sameer-111]

@@ianbrown5955 Is your trading method simple?

[@williamkz]

Thanks Gareth. Perfectly explained. Another technique, for the non breakout trader (like me), is to buy close to support, or around the 20 week EMA, and calculate risk as distance to support whilst reward is the distance to top of Donchian channel.) If the ratio is better than 2 to 1, it's worth a punt. (Other factors have to be taken into account too, like the MACD.)

[@FinancialWisdom]

Hi William. Thanks for sharing!🙏

Yes but you are blinding yourself with science, strategy isn't nearly as important as people believe, it's risk management and psychology they make money consistently

[@TeganHoney]

Thanks for sharing. So my take away from this video is having an almost full proof set up. I’ve watched many trader videos and a lot of them screen for consolidations and breakouts, but entry for their trades vary using a combination of technical analysis. I am current working on better entry/timing. I am going to create a spreadsheet to help me managing risk after watching your video and seeing how a small breakout can make a huge difference.

During a market crash a novice trader will keep hope that one day his portfolio will come to break even, but when market crashes even more he panic sells all his position and loses money. And when market begin to rise the same novice trader is afraid that anytime the market can change the direction and can go bearish, and this results in the trader locking in the profits very early missing out on big gains.

[@FinancialWisdom]

Very true

[@kippsguitar6539]

You seem to also be a novice trader with that simplistic and obvious statement, remember what Charlie munger said, be aware of your circle of competence and realistic, be very careful, good luck

[@falconryforever]

Its all sounds great, on paper.....but only have a meaning in hind site. One never knows what the next hours or day brings, you won't wait for the brake out price to extend too far, then the number of your stopped out trades will increase, loosing less more often.All you can control is the risk, the reward ratio, can only be determined afterwards if there was any at all....

[@FinancialWisdom]

Not so much on paper, I have applied this approach for many years. Its all about putting probability in your favour, therefore improving the win rate too. limit loses and maximise wins is ultimately the goal.

[@kippsguitar6539]

[@richardkay62]

Hello Gareth, Excellent video! I understand how you came up with the risk % based on the prior basing and the breakout candle height. But how do you determine what the reward % should be for a trade? For example, do you project based on some fibonacci projection, analyst projections, or do you assume a sell at a particular RR ratio of say 2.5:1 and move on? Thank you.

[@FinancialWisdom]

I base my assumption on my historical trades which is on average 4:1 - If you build up your database or backtested data you can do the same based on your own longer term average too ;-)

[@DorianGreer]

How do you determine the reward target? Or do you just go for a set return at which you exit regardless of how good the trade is or isn't going?

[@FinancialWisdom]

Backtest data or your own previous trades (the average reward)

[@therapeutika8989]

Great videos. Is there one that explains of how often it happens that she stock gaps down in aftermarket and never sells at the stop loss level and what to do in that case?

[@FinancialWisdom]

Not that I know of. To be honest its a very rare occurrence for me, perhaps more so on small/micro caps

[@szlpharmacology1330]

i use a robot that does well with an RR of 5:1. it requires the trade to 'breathe' before hitting the TP

[@ScottieBeans63]

I'm a little confused and I hope someone can explain. In the example he has both trades with a 50% win rate. To me entering the trade later in #2 would confirm the breakout. #1 it would seem would be more apt to have a false breakout. If that's the case #1 would have losing trades that #2 would avoid and therefore #2 should have a higher win rate. What am I missing?

[@FinancialWisdom]

The breakout of the upper resistance line is at #1, and will have lower risk. If the rationale for a stop loss is at the lower of the consolidation both would have equal chance of being stopped out 'in theory'. It is always a trade off between risk reward and win rate

[@kippsguitar6539]

That's the trade off, false breakouts v highly gains

[@nobbystevens]

Another great video. However, in practice, keeping the loss at 1 % max is not feasible in my specific case. The transaction costs combined with the tax fee is putting me already at -1.2 %. Essentially, the batting rate and risk reward ratio must be higher in order to make a profit.

[@FinancialWisdom]

Hi Nobby, 1% is max equity risk, not positional risk.

[@nobbystevens]

What if the price action never reaches the stop loss or profit price and just ping pong back and forth. At which time would you cut your profit or cut your loss below your limit. You can’t hold forever and prevent other opportunities.

[@FinancialWisdom]

Staying within a positive trend i.e 20 week moving average will help, as does the MACD. Of course you cant be right all the time, we can only move the probabilities into our favour using a positive expectancy approach. Just like a casino.

You don’t always have to think long term. Investing/Trading is as much a tool for shaping your present financial situation as it is for forming your future one. Do you want to buy a BMW next year? Do you want to go on a cruise? Wouldn’t a vacation that was paid for with dividends feel nice?

[@constanciacollene9585]

If you are investing in the hope of buying a house, you will almost certainly be looking at longer-term instruments. If you are investing to buy a computer in the new year, you may want short-term investments that pay dividends or some high-yield bonds.

In market trading, many experts emphasize the importance of Risk Reward Ratio in Stop Loss Level design, with all sorts of arguments & rationale. Isn't it true that the more fundamental thing is the competency & skills in market projection which may bring profit. If this projection is wrong，the best Reward Risk Ratio does not work.
