Margin and Cost per point calculations

Margin

Margin calculations depend on the type of trading instrument: “Forex Trading”, “Metals”, “Energies”, “Indices”, “crypto”,“Stocks”.

• 1. For instruments mentioned on the “Forex trading” tab margin depends on the leverage of the trading account, base currency, contract size and Margin percentage of the specific trading instrument. In MT4 specification such Margin calculation mode is called “Forex”.

  Margin: lots * Base Currency * contract size / leverage * Margin percentage / 100
  For example: Margin for 1 lot for EUR/JPY at 1:3000 leverage= 1 * 1.2152 * 100000 / 3000 * 100 / 100 = 40.5 USD

• 2. For “Metals” margin depends on the leverage of the trading account, contract size, market price and Margin percentage of the specific trading instrument. In MT4 specification such Margin calculation mode is called “CFD-Leverage”.

  Margin: lots * contract size * market price / leverage * Margin percentage / 100
  For example: Margin for 1 lot for XAU/USD at 1:3000 leverage= 1 * 1808 * 100 / 3000 * 100 / 100 = 60.26 USD

• 3. For instruments from the tab: “Energies”, “Indices”,“crypto”, “Stocks” margin depends on contract size, market price and Margin percentage of the specific trading instrument. In MT4 specification such Margin calculation mode is called “CFD”.

  Margin: lots * contract size * market price * Margin percentage / 100
  For example: Margin for 0.01 lot for BTC/USD (leverage of the account doesn’t influence the calculations) = 0.01 * 1 * 54380 * 1 / 100 = 5.44 USD

Cost per point calculations

Calculation of price per point depends on contract size, Exchange rate of quote currency to USD and lot. All the calculations below are done for 1 point - minimum size of price movement. There are three main types of rates: Direct rate, Indirect rate and Cross rate based on which Exchange rate is calculated.

1 point value = (1 Point / Exchange rate of quote currency to USD) * Lot * Contract size per Lot (from trading instrument specification)

• 1. Direct rate - if the USD is in the denominator of the quote (gbp/USD, eur/USD and so on) price per 1 point per 1 lot always will be 1$. As the rate is direct - Exchange rate of quote currency to USD will be always 1: USD/USD = 1.

  gbp/USD
  Point value for gbp/USD: 1 Lot of gbp/USD: (0,00001 / 1) * 1 * 100,000 = 1 USD

  xau/USD
  Point value for xau/USD: 1 Lot of xau/USD: (0,01 / 1) * 1 * 100 = 1 USD

• 2. Indirect rate -if the USD is in the numerator of the quote (USD/jpy, USD/cad and so on), price per 1 point will be calculated a bit different way, as Exchange rate of quote currency to USD - is the exchange rate of the denominator currency to USD (USD/***)

  USD/jpy
  Point value for 1 lot of USD/jpy: (0,001 / 104.29) * 1 * 100,000 = 0.96 USD (usd/jpy = 104.29)

• 3. Cross rates - if the USD not in the denominator and not in the numerator of the quote (EUR/AUD, GBP/JPY, EUR/GBP), price per 1 point will be calculated by a slightly different formula.

  gbp/cad
  Exchange rate of quote currency to USD: (USD/CAD) = 1.27329
  Point value for 1 lot of gbp/cad: (0,00001 / 1.27329) * 1 * 100,000 = 0.79 USD

  eur/aud
  Exchange rate of quote currency to USD: (USD/AUD) - it will be opposite price of AUD/USD = 1/0.75383 = 1.326
  Point value for 1 lot of eur/aud: (0,00001 / 1.326) * 1 * 100,000 = 0.75 USD
