I'm trying to understand the relationship between ticks and pips in trading. Specifically, I want to know how many ticks are equivalent to 1 pip. Can someone clarify this for me?

The concepts of Pip and Tick are often used interchangeably in financial markets depending on the asset in question.

Notably, in the context of Darwinex and similar brokers, 1 pip is equivalent to 10 ticks. This means that a movement of 10 ticks in the currency pair equates to a change of 1 pip.

For currency pairs offered by brokers like Darwinex, which feature 5 decimal places, understanding these terms becomes crucial.

Specifically, when dealing with such currency pairs, 1 pip is defined as the smallest increment of change in the exchange rate.

Additionally, for Japanese Yen (JPY) pairs that have 3 decimal places, the pip still represents the smallest change but in a different magnitude.
