Why R-multiple changes everything
Stop counting dollars. Start counting R. One R is the dollar amount you risk on a trade. A 2R win means you made twice your risk. A 1R loss means your stop hit. By normalizing every trade to R, you can finally compare a $5 stock with a 50-pip forex trade with an ES contract — and see which setup actually has edge.
