UNDERSTANDING BASIC TERMINOLOGIES

WHAT IS A PIP
What is a pip? In order to trade successfully you need to understand what a pip is and how to calculate its value. A Pip stands for
percentage
In = smallest price change
point
It is the smallest price change that a given exchange rate can make. An increase or decrease in pips represents a profit or loss in your Forex trade. Let me explain further. When currencies are quoted they are mainly quoted to the fourth decimal place, this is also true for silver. Exceptions of pairs that include the Japanese yen (JPY) as well as commodities such as gold, oil Brant and gas which are quoted to two decimal places.
When we look at the EUR/USD pair and see it move from 1.3130 to 1.13131, it has moved 1 pip because the fourth decimal point has increased by 1.
A 1 pip move for the USDJPY we can see is 77.60 to 77.61 because the second decimal point has increased by 1.
In major pairs quoted against the US dollar we calculate the value of a pip as follows
The EUR/USD has an exchange rate of = 1.3130
If one pip = 0.0001
We divide
which gives us a pip value of ā‚¬0.0000761
Letā€™s turn this into a forex deal to see what the Pip would represent in either a profit or loss.
Deal 1: Sell ā‚¬100,000 worth of EUR/USD at 1.3130
Pip value = ā‚¬0.0000761 Ɨ ā‚¬100,000 = ā‚¬7.61 ($10)
if the deal is closed at 1.3120 with a 10 Pip profit the total profit will be: -
ā‚¬7.61 Ɨ 10 = ā‚¬76.10...
