RISK & REWARD:
Why Everything You Learned About Risk is Wrong
Learn how to stop treating risk‑to‑reward as a buzzword and start using it as a real edge in your trading.
Wed, 22nd April, 10:00 AM (GMT+0)
Joint hosting with Jonathan Kibbler & Lyndsen Kow
Online (Live Webinar)


A 2025 study found that 65% of traders actually had a win rate above 50%… but still lost money overall because they took small profits and held large losses. Add to that:
Transaction costs – spreads, commissions, and swaps quietly eat into small accounts.
Psychology – fear and greed push traders to move stops, cut winners early, and break their own rules.
Under‑capitalisation – many retail traders simply don’t have enough capital to survive normal market volatility, so they over‑leverage to “make it worth it.”
The result? Even with a decent strategy and a positive win rate, the account curve still trends down.
What You’ll Learn
HOW TRADERS GET RISK & REWARD WRONG
Why focusing only on a 1:5 or 1:10 R:R without win rate or context can be dangerous.
Common mistakes like forcing big R:R on bad setups or moving stops to “protect” a high R:R trade.
HOW TO FIGURE OUT YOUR REAL RISK PER TRADE
Simple ways to decide how much of your account to risk on each position.
How position size, stop distance, and instrument volatility all affect your true risk.
WHAT IS A "GOOD" RISK-TO-REWARD RATIO?
How win rate and R:R work together (and why there’s no magic number).
Examples of realistic R:R profiles for different styles (scalping, intraday, swing).
PRACTICAL STOP LOSS AND TAKE PROFIT PLACEMENT
Logical areas to place stops using structure instead of random pip distances.
How to set take profit levels that respect volatility, liquidity, and key levels on the chart.
