I'm trying to understand the concept of '1 pip' and I'm looking for a clear example that can help me visualize or grasp this idea better. Could you provide me with such an example?

A pip is a unit of measurement in financial markets that represents a small change in value.

Specifically, a pip is equivalent to 0.0001. This means that a one pip move in a currency pair represents a change in value of 0.0001.

It is also worth noting that a pip is the same as a basis point (bps), which is another common unit of measurement for percentages.

Basis points are often used to measure changes in interest rates or other financial metrics, and one basis point is equal to 1% of 1%.

To illustrate the concept of a pip, let's consider an example. If the CAD/USD exchange rate were to move from 1.2014 to 1.2015, this would represent a one pip change in value.
