Win rate alone says little
What matters is the win rate next to the size of wins and losses. Three traders, the same 100 trades:
| Win rate | Avg win | Avg loss | Break-even | Expectancy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 70 % | $50 | $150 | 75 % | −$10 per trade |
| 50 % | $100 | $100 | 50 % | $0 |
| 40 % | $300 | $100 | 25 % | +$60 per trade |
- Win rate = winning trades ÷ all trades
- Break-even win rate = average loss ÷ (average win + average loss)
- Expectancy = win rate × average win − loss rate × average loss
- Profit factor = gross profit ÷ gross loss
Before you trust the number
- Small samples swing: with 20 trades, one more win moves the win rate by 5 points (1 ÷ 20).
- Averages hide outliers. One huge winner can lift the average win and the profit factor of a strategy that loses on most days.
- Count trades, not deals: a position closed in three parts is one trade.

Questions
›What is a good win rate in trading?
There is no good win rate on its own: it depends on the size of wins and losses. 40 % makes money when wins are three times the losses; 70 % loses money when losses are three times the wins. Compare your win rate with the break-even win rate.
›How do I calculate my win rate?
Winning trades ÷ all trades × 100. 30 wins out of 50 trades is 60 %. Break-even trades count in the total, as in the MetaTrader 5 report.
›Where do I get the numbers?
From your MT4/MT5 report: its summary lists profit and loss trades and the average profit and loss trade. Or let a journal count them for you — by setup, hour and mistake.
