Pip Value
The monetary value of a single pip movement for a given position size and currency pair. Pip value depends on the lot size, the currency pair being traded, and the account's base currency. Understanding pip value is essential for calculating risk and profit targets.
Example
“Trading one standard lot of EUR/USD, a pip value is $10. So a 50-pip stop loss represents $500 of risk on that trade.”
