Profit/Loss Calculator

The Profit/Loss Value Calculator is a tool that can be used to calculate the profit or loss of a potential trade.

This mechanism also allows traders to test different trading scenarios, enabling them to project the amount of profit or loss that a potential trade may be worth.

* On all profiting trades, the conversion rate will be the ASK price of USD/JPY at the time of the closing of the trade. On all losing trades, the conversion rate will be the BID price of USD/JPY at the time of the closing of the trade. You can modify the conversion rate accordingly.

* On all profiting trades, the conversion rate will be the ASK price of the second currency in the pair at the time of the closing of the trade. On all losing trades, the conversion rate will be the BID price of the second currency in the pair at the time of the closing of the trade. You can modify the conversion rate accordingly.

* On all profiting trades, the conversion rate will be the BID price of GBP/USD pair at the time of the closing of the trade. On all losing trades, the conversion rate will be the ASK price of GBP/USD pair at the time of the closing of the trade. You can modify the conversion rate accordingly.

The Equation for Euro/USD, GBP/USD, and AUD/USD is as follows :

Multiply the Unit Size by the decimal amount in which the currency is quoted:

For EUR/USD, calculate 100,000 EUR (1 Unit) x .0001 = $10 per pip
For GBP/USD, calculate 100,000 GBP (1 Unit) x .0001 = $10 per pip
For AUD/USD, calculate 100,000 AUD (1 Unit) x .0001 = $10 per pip

The Equation for USD/JPY, USD/CHF, and USD/CAD is as follows:

1. Value of the postion at the open price:
Buy 1 unit of USD/JPY at 111.00
100,000 USD (1 Unit) x 111.00 = 11100000 Yen

2. Value of the position at the close price:
Sell 1 unit of USD/JPY at 111.05
100,000 USD (1 Unit) x 111.05 = 11105000 Yen

3. P/L in Yen:
11105000 - 11100000 = 5000 Yen

4. The DealStation™ platform will convert the P/L into USD, using the current USD/JPY rate:
5000/111.05 = $45.02

5. $ P/L Divided By Pip Differential Equals Per Pip Value:
Z$ / 5 Pips = Per Pip Value (45.02 / 5 = $9)

The P/L calculation for EUR/GBP is as follows:

If a trader Buys 1 unit of EUR/GBP at 0.6747 and closes the position at 0.6757, the P/L will be calculated as follows:

Value of the position at the opening price of 0.6747 = 100,000 x 0.6747 = 67,470 GBP

Value of the position at the closing price of 0.6757 = 100,000 x 0.6757 = 67,570 GBP

P/L in GBP = 67,570 - 67,470 = 100 GBP

The DealStation™ platform will convert your P/L into USD, using the GBP/USD rate at that time:

100 GBP * 1.8331 = $183.31
