Comparing Risk and Reward

Understanding risk and reward is at the very heart of trading but few traders formally assess these relationships. The new trader, and even experienced investors, tend to focus almost entirely on the reward side of the equation. They start with an idea of how much they could make from the trade of the investment. For the trader this is often based on the price regaining old highs. For the investors, it is most often based on compounding interest, yield and dividends.

These figures are moved up a little in a bull market, but in general these are the types of returns we aim for with a blue chip stock.
