It's progressive Ocho so you keep raising by +1 Unit with every Loss...
START
1 Unit WIN => Loss so +1 Unit
2 Unit WIN => Another loss so +1 Unit
3 Unit WIN => Win so reset back to 1 Unit
1 Unit WIN etc etc
You will find that in practice, there will be instances of several losses in a row (even at high SR) so that you will not necessarily only recover the 1 unit. The point with the +1 unit per loss approach is that the 'pendulum' doesn't go spastic in your hand and blow up your bank ! If you can maintain the high strike >85%, it's the 5% starting stake which will keep the 'ocho-lations' under control.
