HOW DO YOU CALCULATE THE PRICE OF ONE POINT?
The price of one point is calculated using the following formulas:
pair(i.e. USD/JPY).
The price of one point is calculated by multiplying the order volume with the minimal change in the exchange rate (0.0001) and dividing it by the current quotation of the currency pair. Formula: Order Volume × Minimal Change in the Exchange Rate / Current Quotation Example: You have an order for 2 lots, USD/JPY is 105.810. The price of a single point is 0.00000189 USD.
The price of one point is calculated by multiplying the order volume with minimal change in the exchange rate (0.0001). Formula: Order Volume × Minimal Change in the Exchange Rate Example: You have an order for 2 lot. The price of a single point is 0.0002 USD.
The price of one point is calculated by multiplying the order volume with the minimal change in the exchange rate (0.0001), then by the current quotation of the base pair to USD and divided by the current quotation of the currency pair during the opening of the position. Formula: Order Volume × Minimal Change in the Exchange Rate × Base Currency Exchange Rate to USD / Current Quotation Example: You have an order for 2 lots, the EUR/USD is 1.12000, and EUR/JPY is 118.700. The price of a single point is 0.000001887 USD.
The price of one point is calculated by multiplying the order volume with minimal change in the exchange rate (0.0001). Formula: Order volume × Minimal Change in the Exchange Rate Example: You have an order for 2 lot. The price of a single point is 0.0002 USD.
The price of one point is calculated by multiplying the order volume with the minimal change in the exchange rate (0.00001) and multiplying by the current quotation. Formula: Order Volume × Minimal Change in the Exchange Rate / Current Quotation Example: You have an order for 2 BTC and the quotation for BTC/USD is 11,753.41 USD. The price of a single point would be 2 USD × 0.00001 / 11,753.41 = 0.000000002 USD.
The price of one point is calculated by multiplying the order volume with the minimal change in the exchange rate (0.00001) and dividing it twice: by the current quotation of the base pair to USD and by the current quotation of the currency pair during the opening of the position. Formula: Order Volume × Minimal Change in the Exchange Rate × Base Currency Exchange Rate to USD / Current Quotation Example: You have an order for 0.1 lot of ETH/LTC, ETH/LTC is 2.47229 and ETH/USD is 226.57780. The price of a single point would be 0.1 × 0.00001 × 226.57780 / 2.47229 = 0.000091647 USD.
The price of one point is calculated by multiplying the contract volume with minimal change in the exchange rate (0.00001). The contract size is 10 contracts multiplied by your order size. Formula: Contract Size × Minimal Change in the Exchange Rate Example: You have an order for 2 lots. The price of a single point would be 2 × 10 × 0.00001 = 0.0002 EUR.

Forex Trading FAQ's
Frequently asked questions about the Forex Market and Forex Trading
WHAT IS A CURRENCY PAIR?
A currency pair consists of a base currency and a quote currency (or counter currency). It’s a way to display and price one currency against another. Currency pairs are conventionally shown as two abbreviated currency names, separated by a slash. For example, with the “EUR/USD” currency pair, the euro (EUR) is the base currency and U.S. dollar (USD) is the quote currency.
WHAT IS A PIP?
A “PIP” (percentage in points) is the term used in the Forex market to represent the smallest incremental move an exchange rate can make. For example, if an exchange rate was previously 1.2510 and increased by one pip, the exchange rate will be 1.2511.
WHAT IS A SPREAD?
The spread is the difference between the bid and the ask price. The bid is the price in the market that a Buyer will pay, and the ask is the price a Seller is willing to accept. For example, the USD/JPY bid/ask spread is 110.00 / 110.02. Currency pairs that are less actively traded have wider spreads.
