What is pip?

what is pipForex pip is the minimum price movement of a Forex trading pair, based on which, profit or loss from a trade is calculated. Usually, we get 4 decimals while showing a price quote of a definite pair. However, pip is the last decimal (4th decimal) in the price of a given pair. Please note that in case of the most major pairs, pip is the 4th decimal, but in case of dollar/yen, pip is the 2nd decimal.

That is, if the euro/US dollar is traded in a determined moments of 1.1352 price quote, i.e. every euro equals to 1.1352 US dollar, the pip would be 2. In the case where the price moves from 1.1352 to 1.1355, the movement of the price corresponds to 3 pips.

If you trade the full contract (100k of currency) the EUR/USD and GBP/USD are worth approximate $10. In other words if you have a trade with 50 pips in profit, it means the gain is $500. ($10 per pip x50 pips). If you trade a mini account is 1/10th of the size, 50 pips will worth $50.
