Forex profit and loss calculator

How forex profit is calculated

Profit = (Exit − Entry) × Units for a buy, and the reverse for a sell. The answer is in the quote currency (the second currency in the pair), which is then converted to your account currency. Real results also include the spread, any commission and swap (overnight financing).

Risk–reward ratio

Compare your potential profit with your potential loss (to the stop-loss). A 1:2 ratio means you aim to make twice what you risk, so you can be profitable even if only 40% of trades win.
