risk essential

R-Multiple

Profit or loss expressed as multiples of initial risk (1R = amount risked on the trade).


An R-multiple expresses outcomes relative to initial risk. If you risk ₹1,000 and make ₹3,000, that's +3R. If stopped out for −₹1,000, that's −1R.

R-multiples let you compare trades with different position sizes and stop distances. Swing Edge's position sizing tool plans targets in R terms alongside rupee risk caps.
