Make upside targets explicit and consistent with the risk you defined at entry.
Launch Target Price / ROI Planner →Purpose
Make upside targets explicit and consistent with the risk you defined at entry.
When to use it
- You know entry and stop and want TP levels
- You plan partial takes at 1R / 2R
- You compare targets to fee break-even
- You build a take-profit ladder next
How to use it
- Enter entry and invalidation. Stop distance defines 1R.
- Choose R-multiples. Map 1R, 2R, etc. into prices.
- Check fees. Ensure first target clears round-trip costs.
- Size the position. Use position size so dollar risk matches your cap.
Benefits
- Consistent R-based targets
- Links risk to reward prices
- Works with TP ladders
- Free calculator
Pitfalls to avoid
- Stops get hunted; plan still needs discretion
- Fees shrink effective R
- Not a signal generator
- Informational only
Target price vs take-profit ladder
Target price gives levels; a take-profit ladder allocates size across those levels. Use both when you scale out instead of all-or-nothing exits.
Worked example
Long entry 100, stop 95 → 1R = 5. 2R target = 110 before fees. If round-trip fees need ~1% move, a tiny 0.5R scalp may still be negative — check fee break-even.
