If broker gives prices in format like 1.37341 on all pairs and like 135.992 on pairs with Japanese yen, then it is 5 digits broker, eg Alpari NZ Ltd. If price is quoted like this: 1.3734 on all pairs and like 135.99 on pairs with Japanese yen, then it is 4 digits broker. So for 4 digits broker the pip is 1/10000 or 0.0001 for any currency pair exept of those with Japanese yen. For pairs with Japanese yen it is 1/100 or 0.01. If EURUSD bid price is 1.3734 (4 digits broker) then last "4" is 4 pips, last "34" is 34 pips etc. If you want to see what you'll get if you add 50 pips to 1.3734, then just make simple calculation 1.3734+50/1000 = 1.3784. For 5 digits broker 1 pip still the same 1/10000 or 0.0001 for any currency pair exept of those with Japanese yen. But because of 5th digit on your screen it will be displayed like 10, however in essense it is still the same 1 pip. Hope it clear, if not, just ask :arrow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
