Frequently Asked Questions

How is forex profit or loss calculated?

For a long (buy) position, profit increases when price rises: the difference between exit and entry, measured in pips, is multiplied by pip value for your lot size in your account currency. For a short (sell), profit increases when price falls: entry minus exit drives the pip count.

Why does pip value matter for P&L?

A pip is a fixed minimum price step, but its dollar value depends on the pair's contract size, your lots, and conversion from the quote currency to your account currency. The calculator uses the same pip-value logic as our pip calculator for consistency.

Does this include spread and commissions?

No. The result is a simplified estimate from prices you enter. Real trades pay the spread when you open and close, and may incur commission or swap—factor those in when planning.

Can I use this for metals like XAU/USD?

Yes. Pairs in the list use their defined pip sizes and contract sizes. Treat the output as educational; always verify P&L on your broker's platform for live specs.
