Contract/ Leverage * Price , where

Contract is a size of contract in base currency

Leverage

Price - Opening price

Example:

There is a buy order on EURUSD with opening price 1.10294 and 1 lot volume. According to formula: 100,000/100*1.10294 = 1102.94

Note: 1 lot is 100,000 in base currency.

3. How to calculate cost of pip?

Cost of one pip can be calculated by the following formula:

Pip cost = (Contract*tick size)/ rate of quoted currency against USD

Contract is a size of contract in base currency

Tick size is a minimum change of quotation, for example, EURUSD has minimum tick size 0.00001

Example:

EURUSD = 100,000

100,000*0.00001 / 1 = 1$

Note: Pay attention that calculation uses rate of quoted currency against USD. Hence, rate of quoted currency for such pairs as EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, where quoted currency is USD, equals to 1. To calculate cost of pip of other pairs that do not include USD, you should take into account rate of quoted currency exactly against USD.
