UpStocks Pip Value Calculator
How It Works
This tool calculates the monetary value of 1 pip for your trades. Essential for risk management across forex, crypto, and indices.
Formula:
- Forex: (0.0001 ÷ Exchange Rate) × Trade Size × 100,000
- JPY Pairs: (0.01 ÷ Exchange Rate) × Trade Size × 100,000
- Crypto/Indices: 1 point × Trade Size × Contract Size
Key Concepts:
- 1 Standard Lot = 100,000 units
- 1 Mini Lot = 10,000 units
- 1 Micro Lot = 1,000 units
- JPY pairs use 0.01 for 1 pip
Example (EUR/USD):
1 standard lot at 1.0850:
(0.0001 ÷ 1.0850) × 100,000 = $9.22 per pip
