Pip value calculator
How much does each pip of price movement earn or lose in my account currency at this size?
Needed to convert pip value from JPY to USD.
0.01 × 100,000 = 1,000.00 JPY
Account currency is the base; pip value changes with this symbol's price.
Assumptions: pip and contract sizes from the site's symbol table (or standard values); conversion rates are indicative and should be replaced with live prices. Commission, spread and swap are not included.
Why pip values differ between symbols
Pip value = pip size × contract size, in the pair's second (quote) currency. If the quote currency differs from your account currency it must be converted at today's rate — that is why USDJPY's pip value moves with price while EURUSD is a fixed $10 on a USD account.
