Worked gold example
Buy at 2,400 · stop 2,394 · target 2,412
Risk = 6 points · reward = 12 points
R:R = 1 : 2, so you only need to win about 34% of trades to break even.

Questions
What is a good risk to reward ratio?
1 : 2 or better. With 1 : 2 you can be wrong more often than right and still grow the account.
Does a higher R:R always mean a better trade?
No. Very far targets are hit less often. Combine R:R with structure and liquidity.
