Pip Value

How much money one pip of movement is worth for your trade.

Pip value is the cash amount each one-pip move is worth, based on your position size. It lets you translate a price move into profit or loss. For a standard lot of most pairs a pip is about $10, for a mini lot about $1, and for a micro lot about $0.10.

Example

On one mini lot of EUR/USD, a 10-pip gain is worth about $10.
