Do you account for spread when determining risk-reward of a trade?

9 pips! Jeez, you must be made of money.

Not at all mate - but that is a demo account as you can see and the system will not be considered as a real prospect until I get to $10,000 including the handicaps (It was at $9400 a few months ago and now sits at around $9850 ($ 100 is being used in that bet)

It will not go live until it gets to around $10,500 - With 1 x $50 bets going it equates to approx 6 pips per $ and with 2 going as you see there, one will be closed at a “Reasonable level” - the remaining half will run up towards the recent swing high

If you worried about broker floating spread, you can search zero spread broker. or a fixed spread broker.
