Risk–reward ratio is a specific Trading coordinate in the Bitcoin knowledge graph. In practical terms, it identifies the subject described here: The planned loss to planned gain of a setup; meaningful only together with outcome probabilities and costs. This definition is narrower than promotional usage and should be read together with the implementation, date and evidence attached to the entry.
Risk–reward ratio is best understood as part of a system rather than as an isolated definition. Its related coordinates show the mechanisms, incentives and historical records that give the term practical meaning.
Risk–reward ratio describes how participants value, trade or obtain exposure to bitcoin. Market behavior can affect adoption and mining economics, but it does not rewrite consensus rules. Price evidence and protocol evidence answer different questions.
Understanding Risk–reward ratio helps distinguish a verifiable Bitcoin mechanism or historical record from slogans, products and market narratives.
Primary or authoritative records make these details checkable: a risk-reward ratio compares planned loss distance with planned gain distance, but expected value also requires the probability and distribution of wins, losses, fees and execution. They should be verified before using the coordinate in analysis.
The practical limit is: a visually attractive ratio is not a profitable strategy and stop or target orders are not guaranteed fills; win rate, tail losses and selection bias matter. A definition, office, chart pattern or published claim is not by itself a prediction or Bitcoin consensus rule.
