Your profit or loss on any XAU/USD trade is determined by: the price movement in pips, your lot size and the pip value for that lot size.
P&L = (Exit Price - Entry Price) ÷ 0.01 × Lot Size × $1
For long trades. Reverse for shorts.
Professional traders never enter a trade without knowing exactly what they will make or lose. This discipline separates consistent traders from gamblers.
Profit = (Exit Price - Entry Price) × Lot Size × Contract Size. For a long trade, if gold rises from $4710 to $4730 with 0.1 lots, profit = 20 pips × $0.10 = $2.00.
In XAU/USD, a pip is $0.10 and a point is $0.001. Most brokers quote gold to 2 decimal places, so pips are the standard.
Yes, broker commission and spread both reduce your net profit. Always factor in your broker spread (typically 3-10 pips on XAU/USD).
Floating P&L is unrealised profit/loss on an open trade. Realised P&L is locked in once you close the trade.
Calculate USD profit first then divide by the current GBP/USD exchange rate.
