Frequently Asked Questions
How much is 1 pip worth on USOIL?
On a 1.00 standard lot (1,000 barrels), 1 pip is worth exactly $10. Scale down to a 0.10 mini lot, and it drops to $1.00 per pip. On a 0.01 micro lot, you are looking at $0.10 per pip. If your account currency matches the quote currency (USD), this payout is fixed.
How do you calculate the pip value for USOIL?
Multiply the contract size (1,000 barrels) by the minimum price increment (0.01). That gives you the base dollar value per pip. For cross pairs or indirect quotes, our engine automatically divides by the current exchange rate so you don't have to calculate it by hand.
Why calculate pip value before opening an order?
Because stop-loss distance is only half the equation. A 30-pip stop on a 1.00 lot of USOIL risks $300.00. If your maximum planned loss is $100, entering that position will blow past your risk limit. Knowing the exact pip value lets you scale down to the right fractional lot size before you click Buy or Sell.
Market Specifications & Execution Reference
Contract multipliers for USOIL adhere to standard retail and prime broker conventions (1,000 barrels per 1.00 lot, priced to 2 decimal places). In disciplined trading, position sizing is dictated by technical invalidation levels rather than broker margin limits. Prop trading evaluation rules (such as FTMO, FundedNext, and 5%ers) enforce strict 5% maximum daily drawdown limits and 10% total trailing drawdown rules. Sizing each trade between 0.5% and 1.5% prevents losing streaks from breaching daily equity thresholds. All calculations execute client-side in your local browser for zero execution latency.
