Frequently Asked Questions

How much is 1 point worth on NAS100?

On a 1.00 standard lot (1 contracts), 1 point is worth exactly $1. Scale down to a 0.10 mini lot, and it drops to $0.10 per point. On a 0.01 micro lot, you are looking at $0.01 per point. If your account currency matches the quote currency (USD), this payout is fixed.

How do you calculate the point value for NAS100?

Multiply the contract size (1 contracts) by the minimum price increment (1). That gives you the base dollar value per point. 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-point stop on a 1.00 lot of NAS100 risks $30.00. 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 NAS100 adhere to standard retail and prime broker conventions (1 contracts 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.
