The first step is to determine the value of one pip. Typically, one pip is equal to 0.0001. This figure can vary depending on the currency pair being traded.

The next step is to divide one pip by the current market value of the forex pair. This will give you the value of one pip in terms of the quote currency.

Once you have this figure, you need to multiply it by your lot size. Lot size refers to the number of base units that you are trading.

For example, if you are trading a standard lot size of 100,000 base units, you would multiply the pip value by 100,000 to get the total value of one pip for your trade.
