ROI (Return on Investment)
Percentage return on your total wagered amount
Definition
ROI (Return on Investment) measures the efficiency of your betting strategy by calculating the percentage return on the total amount you wagered. Formula: ROI = (Net Profit ÷ Total Wagered) × 100%. Unlike simple profit/loss which shows absolute gains, ROI shows relative performance - how much you gained per dollar risked. A positive ROI means profitable strategy, negative ROI means losing strategy. Even small positive ROI (2-5%) can be excellent if sustained over hundreds of rounds.
Example
You wager $1000 total across 50 rounds (average $20/round). You end with $1080. Net profit = $80. ROI = ($80 ÷ $1000) × 100% = 8% ROI. This is excellent - it means every dollar you bet returned $1.08 on average. Compare to -15% ROI losing strategy.
💡Strategy Tip
Target ROI depends on risk level: Conservative strategies aim for 3-8% ROI with low volatility. Moderate strategies target 5-15% ROI. Aggressive strategies might aim for 15-30% ROI but with higher variance. Anything above 10% sustained ROI is exceptional performance.
