# Forex profit calculator: what a trade is worth.

A trade calculator for forex and gold. Enter an instrument, a direction, a lot size and the two prices, and this works out the result in pips and dollars, after commission, and as a share of your account. It shows what a given move produces - it does not predict one.

Move in your favour: 50 pips

Gross result: +$500.00

Commission: $7.00

How it works

## The formula behind the numbers.

Profit is the price difference times the position size, in the quote currency, converted to dollars and less commission.

**Gross** = (exit − entry) × lots × contract size, reversed for a short. Where the US dollar is the quote currency - EUR/USD, gold - that is already dollars. Where it is the base currency - USD/JPY, USD/CAD - divide by the exit price. **Net** = gross − (lots × round-turn commission).

**Worked example.** Long 1 lot of EUR/USD from 1.08000 to 1.08500 is 50 pips: 0.005 × 100,000 = $500.00 gross. Less $7.00 commission, that is $493.00, or 0.49% of a $100,000 account.

Long 1 lot of USD/JPY from 150.00 to 151.00 makes ¥100,000, which at 151.00 is $662.25. Short 0.5 lots of gold from 3,500 to 3,510 loses 10 × 100 oz × 0.5 = $500.00, and $503.50 with commission - 10.1% of the $5,000 daily loss limit on a $100,000 1 Step.

This calculator computes what a price move you choose would produce at a size you choose. It does not estimate how likely that move is, and it is not a forecast of what anyone will make. On a GFN account the result is virtual profit or loss on a simulated account.

The rules behind the maths

## Where this meets a GFN account.

Commission is $3.50 per side, $7 per lot round turn on every GFN programme, charged on the simulated account, and it counts toward the daily loss limit - so the net figure is the one that matters.

Common questions

## Profit and loss, answered.

Take the price difference between entry and exit, multiply by the lot size and the contract size (100,000 units for a standard forex lot), and flip the sign for a short. If the US dollar is the quote currency the result is already in dollars; if it is the base currency, divide by the exit price.

Yes. It defaults to GFN's published commission - $3.50 per side, $7 per lot round turn - and you can change it. Spread and slippage are already in the prices you enter, so they are not deducted a second time.

One lot of XAU/USD is 100 troy ounces, so every $1.00 move in the gold price is $100 per lot. A $10 move on 0.5 lots is $500 before commission.

No. It computes what a specific price move would produce at a specific size. Whether the market makes that move is the part no calculator knows. On a GFN account the result is virtual profit on a simulated account.
