How to use the Forex Profit Calculator
- Choose Long or Short.
- Enter your position size in lots and the entry and exit prices.
- Read profit in dollars, pips moved, and pip value.
Worked example
Long 0.1 lot EUR/USD from 1.1000 to 1.1050. That is 50 pips; at $1/pip (0.1 lot) the profit is $50. A full 1.0 lot would be $500.
What is Forex Profit Calculator?
In a USD account on a USD-quoted pair, one standard lot (100,000 units) is worth about $10 per pip. Profit equals pips times pip value, times your direction. For cross pairs the pip value differs — convert it to your account currency.
Profit = (Exit − Entry) × 10,000 pips × (10 × Lots) × Direction
Frequently asked questions
Why does pip value assume $10?
That is for a USD account on a USD-quoted pair like EUR/USD. For JPY pairs (2 decimals) or cross pairs, the pip value changes — adjust accordingly.
Does this include spread or swap?
No. The spread is paid entering and exiting; swap is an overnight carry cost. Both reduce real profit.
Is leverage included?
No. Leverage changes margin required, not the pip profit — but it changes how fast losses hit your account.
