13 Jan 2022, 15:51

Hey there,

I would like to know, how i can calculate the costPerPip with 1 Lot?

So eg for GBPUSD, I want to know how much money would be worth the change of 0.0001 in my base currency (EUR)

(Same for other instruments, eg US500, ...)

Thanks in Advance

Hi,

For calculating the monetary value of a symbol pip/tick please follow this tutorial: Profit/Loss Calculation - Open API (spotware.github.io)

Thanks,

Got it.

I saw this tutorial before, but hoped there is an easier way for this :D

So, there is no easier way, I coded it that way. Thanks again
