Pips
A pip is the smallest unit of price for any foreign currency. Pips are sometimes also called points.
Nearly all currency pairs consist of five significant digits and most pairs have the decimal point immediately after the first digit. For example EUR/USD equals 1.2812. In this instance, a single pip equals the smallest change in the fourth decimal place, that is 0.0001. Therefore, if the quote currency in any pair is USD, then one pip always equals 1/100 of a cent. One notable exception is the USD/JPY pair where a pip equals 0.01 USD.
