How it works
Price movement times units gives P&L in the quote currency, which is converted to your account currency.
If your account currency isn't in the pair, enter a conversion rate.
Formula & methodology
Pips = (Exit − Entry) ÷ Pip size (× −1 for sells) P&L (quote) = (Exit − Entry) × Lots × Contract size Net = P&L (account) − Commission
Pip size is 0.0001, or 0.01 for JPY-quoted pairs.
Illustrative example
Buy 1 lot EUR/USD
1.0850 → 1.0920 is +70 pips. On 100,000 units that's $700.
