How to Calculate Pips for AUD/JPY
AUD/JPY traders need to know exactly how much a single pip or tick is worth before entering a trade. Use the calculator above to quickly determine pip value with live AUD/JPY rates by entering lot size and account currency. This tool is fast, mobile-friendly, and accurate.
The calculation uses the instrument’s tick size and contract size. For AUD/JPY, a typical tick size is 0.01 and a common contract size is 100,000 units per standard lot. The formula: Pip Value = (Tick Size ÷ Price) × Contract Size × Lot Size. Live rates are fetched for precision.
Example: If the price is 95.00 and you trade 1 standard lot (lot size = 1) with contract size 100,000, a single pip (0.01) is worth approximately $10.53 JPY (Pip Value = (0.01 ÷ 95.00) × 100,000 × 1). Use the calculator for exact results in your account currency.
Risk management tip: Calculate pip value before trading to convert stop-loss pips into a monetary amount and size your position, especially for prop firm compliance.
