** See more about units below

A "unit" typically ranging from 1% to 5% of your total bankroll, and serves as a standard measure for the amount wagered on each bet. Smaller bankrolls typically use 1% or less per unit, larger bankrolls can go up to 2% for balanced risk, and experienced bettors may bet 3% or more per unit. For example, if your bankroll is $1,000 and you set one unit as 2% ($20), you would bet $20 for each unit.
