Symbol.PipValue vs what's shown in the GUI
13 Apr 2022, 18:12

Hi,

Symbol.PipValue for GBPUSD returns 7.66...........E-05, but in the "New Order" dialogue in the GUI it shows the Pip Value as £0.07, is this because the minimum tradable amount (Symbol.VolumeInUnitsMin) is 1000? Confused!

Thanks.

Ahh, the pip value is based on the volume I enter. Got it!
