Trading Calculators
Margin Calculator
What it does:- The margin calculator helps with calculating the exact margin (capital) needed to open your trading position (i.e. the “deposit” your broker holds).
Formula:
Required Margin = (Trade Size × Price) ÷ Leverage
Example: You want to buy 1 standard lot (100,000 units) of EUR/USD at 1.1781, with 1:1000 leverage.
(100,000 × 1.1050) ÷ 1000 = $117.81 required margin
Pip Value Calculator
What it does:- The pip value calculator helps with finding the value of each pip (the smallest price movement) in the account currency you want to trade in.
Formula:
Pip Value = (Pip Size ÷ Exchange Rate) × Lot Size
- For most pairs, Pip Size = 0.0001
- For JPY pairs, Pip Size = 0.01
Example: 1 standard lot (100,000) of EUR/USD at 1.1050, account in USD:
(0.0001 ÷ 1.1050) × 100,000 = ~$9.05 per pip
For a USD-quoted pair (like EUR/USD), it simplifies to:
Pip Value = 0.0001 × 100,000 = $10 per pip (when account is in USD)
Lot Size (Position Size) Calculator
The lot size(position size) calculator helps with finding the amount of currency units to buy or sell to control your maximum risk per position.
Profit & Loss Calculator
The profit & loss calculator helps with finding the potential profits and losses depending on the outcome of the trade.
