How do I work out the strike rate required to be profitable if I know my average gains and average losses?
I know if I win £10 (After commission) and lose £10 on average then anything above a 50% strike rate will be profitable (given a large enough sample). What about if I was £12 (After commission) positive and £8 negative (on average)?
Probably a really stupidly easy formula I just don't have the brain power for this evening and instead of searching, I figured I'd be lazy and come to the forum. Any help please?

Brilliant, thank you!
Interesting Formula..Just. to turn it round though, and similar to Callum, trying to work it out but struggling or just lazy.
How do you transpose the formula to work out your break even average loss, so if I win £7 on average and have a strike rate of 92%, what should my losses be limited to to break even?

Batters' ability to score runs without being dismissed is more important than their strike rate in Test cricket slope unblocked. This means that batting average, rather than strike rate, is prioritized when assessing a batter's performance in a Test setting.
