How it works

R-multiples keep targets proportional to risk. A 2R target aims for twice the dollars you would lose if stopped out — useful for journaling expectancy.

Formula

Risk per unit = |Entry − Stop|. Long TP = Entry + (R × risk). Short TP = Entry − (R × risk). Reward = R × (risk × units).

Examples

2R long

Entry $65,000, stop $63,000 → risk $2,000/unit. 2R TP = $69,000. On 0.1 BTC, risk $200 and reward $400.

1.5R short

Entry $65,000, stop $66,000 → risk $1,000/unit. 1.5R TP = $63,500.

FAQs

What R-multiple should I use?

Many systematic plans look for at least 1.5R–3R when win rate is moderate. Match targets to market structure, not vanity numbers.

Can I scale out at multiple targets?

Yes. Calculate separate TPs (e.g. 1R and 2R) and split size. This tool shows one target at a time.

Does take profit guarantee a fill?

No. Limit targets may not fill in fast markets. Educational math only — not execution advice.
