Pending Pips

About Pending Pips

Pending Pips is a set of forex calculators that give you the answer in seconds and show you how they got it.

What it is

There are 16 tools here, from position size and pip value to margin, risk/reward and drawdown recovery. Each one is meant to answer a question a trader actually asks, such as "how many lots should I trade?".

How it works

  • Everything is calculated in your browser. The numbers you type are not sent to us and are not stored on a server.
  • Every calculator page shows its formula, a worked example and the limits to keep in mind, so you can check the answer yourself.
  • The logic behind each calculator is checked against hand-worked examples before it is published.

Where the numbers come from

Pre-filled exchange rates come from the European Central Bank's euro reference rates (source: ECB statistics). They are daily figures published for information only, so each page shows the date they are from, and you should replace them with your broker's current price for an exact result. Some pages also show a live price from TradingView, which you can hide.

What Pending Pips does not do

  • It does not give trading signals, market news or financial advice.
  • It does not recommend or review brokers.
  • It does not ask for your money, your account details or your trading history.

Please read the risk disclosure. Trading carries a high risk of loss.
