Forex Pips and Spreads

The pip is the smallest measure of price move used in forex trading.

For instance, if the currency pair EUR/USD is trading at 1.3000 and then changes to 1.3010, the pair is said to move by 10 pips. It is an acronym for Percentage in Point (pip).

In the wholesale market, currencies are quoted out to four decimal places, with the last placeholder called a point or a pip. A pip in most currencies is one/10,000th of an exchange rate or in USD/JPY, it is one/100th, likewise you can find for others.

Spread on the other hand is the difference between buy (long) or sell (short) for a currency pair. The bid/offer spread is the difference between the buying (bid) and selling (offer) price. The ask prices are the immediate execution prices for quick buyers or traders and bid prices are for quick sellers.

In Forex market you will find brokers who generally do not charge any commission from you. But they get their money by charging you a spread. As spread is the difference between the bid price and the ask price for any currency being traded, the broker will add this spread onto the price of the trade and keep it as their fee for trading.
