1 Pip Value – Profit and Loss

You can use the following formula, to calculate the value of 1 pip.

Amount of Base Currency * Pips = Value in Quote Currency

Here are some examples of pip value.

Value of 1 pip in EUR/USD = 1 Lot (100 000 €) * 0.0001 = 10 USD

Value of 1 pip in USD/CHF = 1 Lot (100 000 $) * 0.0001 = 10 CHF

Value of 1 pip in EUR/JPY = 1 Lot (100 000 €) * 0.01 = 1000 JPY

To calculate pip value, required margin, swap points and other numbers, you can also use XM’s online calculator.
