#6 How to find the best risk to reward trading setups? 

Last Updated: July 31, 2019

Do you agree with the statement below?

“You must look for trades with a minimum of 1 to 2 risk to reward so that even if you lose more than half the time, you can still be a profitable trader.”

Now…

If that’s the case, why stop at 1 to 2 risk to reward?

Why not go for 1 to 1000 risk to reward?

Why not risk 10 pips to make 10,000 pips?

All you need to do is have a stop loss of 10 pips, and have a target profit 10,000 pips away.

And POOF!

You’re a consistently profitable trader.

Well, the truth is this…

The risk to reward ratio is an illusion. It is meaningless without taking into consideration this one thing — and I’ll explain more in this episode of AskRayner.

  • Hello sit Rayner. I am still on creating my risk model. I am still puzzled in choosing MDPT (maximum draWdown per trade) or percentage cut. considering i am novice in some of the set up what would be a good practice. do u buy on tranch and sell on tranch or one time order?
