AUD/JPY FAQ

AUD/JPY lot size FAQs

How do I calculate the lot size for AUD/JPY?

Enter your account balance and currency, choose AUD/JPY, set your risk per trade as a percentage (for example 1%), and enter your stop loss. The calculator multiplies balance by risk% to get the money at risk, then divides that by your stop distance times the AUD/JPY pip value per lot. When your account currency differs from Japanese Yen (JPY), the pip value is converted with live exchange rates before the lot size is worked out.

What is one pip of AUD/JPY worth?

One pip of AUD/JPY moves the value of a 1.00 lot by 1,000.00 JPY. This is the contract size (100,000 AUD) multiplied by the pip size (0.01). Because AUD/JPY is quoted in Japanese Yen, that pip value is in JPY; the calculator converts it to your account currency automatically.

What is 1 lot of AUD/JPY?

A standard 1.00 lot of AUD/JPY represents 100,000 AUD. A 0.10 lot is a tenth of that and a 0.01 lot (a micro lot) is a hundredth. Brokers can define contract sizes differently, so confirm the specification in your MT4/MT5 symbol details before sizing a live trade.

Why does the calculator show an exact size and a broker-ready size?

The exact size is the pure mathematical answer, for example 0.0167 lots. Most brokers only accept volumes on a grid set by a minimum lot and lot step (often 0.01), so the broker-ready size is the largest valid volume at or below the exact size. It never rounds up, so your actual risk on AUD/JPY never exceeds the risk you set.

Does the AUD/JPY lot size depend on my account currency?

Yes. AUD/JPY is quoted in Japanese Yen (JPY), so unless your account is in JPY the calculator converts the pip value to your account currency with live exchange rates. Two accounts in different currencies can therefore get slightly different lot sizes for the same trade.
