Forex Trading Calculators

Essential tools for forex traders - Major, Minor & Exotic pairs

Pip Value Calculator

Calculate pip value for 21+ currency pairs across Major, Minor & Exotic categories

?What is Pip Value?

A pip (percentage in point) is the smallest price movement in forex. For most pairs, 1 pip = 0.0001. For JPY pairs, 1 pip = 0.01. This calculator shows how much money you make or lose per pip movement based on your lot size.

📐 Formula

Pip Value = (Pip Size × Lot Size × Contract Size) / Exchange Rate

Standard Lot = 100,000 units | Mini = 10,000 | Micro = 1,000

Margin Calculator

Calculate required margin for Forex, Commodities & Indices with various leverage options

?What is Margin?

Margin is the amount of money required to open a leveraged position. Higher leverage = lower margin requirement, but also higher risk. Think of it as a good-faith deposit to hold your position.

📐 Formula

Margin = (Lot Size × Contract Size × Price) / Leverage

⚠️ Higher leverage amplifies both profits AND losses

Profit/Loss Calculator

Calculate potential profit or loss including commissions and swap fees

?How P/L is Calculated

Profit or loss depends on price movement, lot size, and direction. Don't forget to account for commissions and overnight swap fees which can impact your net result!

📐 Formula

P/L = (Exit Price - Entry Price) × Lot Size × Contract Size

Net P/L = Gross P/L - Commissions - Swap Fees

Position Size Calculator

Calculate optimal position size based on your risk tolerance

⚠️Golden Rule of Risk Management

Never risk more than 1-2% of your account per trade.This calculator helps you determine the exact lot size to use based on your account size, risk tolerance, and stop loss distance.

📐 Formula

Position Size = (Account × Risk %) / (SL Pips × Pip Value)

Use this calculator before EVERY trade for proper risk management

Swap/Rollover Calculator

Calculate overnight swap fees for holding positions

?What is Swap?

Swap is the interest paid or earned for holding a position overnight. It's based on the interest rate differential between the two currencies in a pair. Swap can be positive (you earn) or negative (you pay).

💡 Important Note

Wednesday = Triple swap day (accounts for the weekend). Swap rates vary by broker and are subject to change.

Compound Interest Calculator

Calculate the power of compounding on your investments

?The Power of Compounding

Compound interest is interest calculated on both the initial principal and previously accumulated interest. Einstein reportedly called it "the 8th wonder of the world" because of its exponential growth potential.

📐 Formula

A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)

P=Principal, r=Rate, n=Compounding frequency, t=Time

Drawdown Recovery Calculator

Calculate how much gain you need to recover from a loss

!Why This Matters

Drawdown recovery is not linear! A 50% loss requires a 100% gain to break even. This calculator shows why protecting your capital is more important than chasing gains.

📊 Key Examples

10% loss→ 11.1% to recover
25% loss→ 33.3% to recover
50% loss→ 100% to recover

Fibonacci Retracement Calculator

Calculate key support and resistance levels using Fibonacci ratios

?What is Fibonacci Retracement?

Fibonacci retracement uses horizontal lines to indicate key support/resistance levels based on the golden ratio (1.618). The most important levels are 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8%.

🎯 Key Levels

38.2%
Shallow
50.0%
Balanced
61.8%
Deep

Pivot Point Calculator

Calculate daily pivot points using Standard, Fibonacci, Camarilla & Woodie's methods

?What are Pivot Points?

Pivot points are calculated using the previous day's high, low, and close prices. They help identify potential support (S1, S2, S3) and resistance (R1, R2, R3) levels for the current trading day.

📐 Standard Formula

Pivot = (High + Low + Close) / 3

R1 = (2 × Pivot) - Low | S1 = (2 × Pivot) - High

Risk Warning: CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing capital rapidly due to leverage.
