General
In general, spreads are tighter during higher volumes of liquidity. Spreads may become wider when there is a lack of liquidity or high volatility e.g. during news annoucements or holiday periods.
Slippage occurs when
1.When the price moved before it’s executed. You will be given the next best price which can be positive or negative.
2. When the liquidity providers are unable to accept the order due to insufficient volume. The order is then relegated to the next best price and is filled.
Calculations
A pip is a unit of measurement used to convey the change in value of a currency pair.
Pip value calculation = Contract Size X position size X price change (FX: 0.00010)
Note: price change is calculated in terms/counter currency, which is the back currency for FX pairs (or Margin Currency for CFDs). This will convert automatically to your trading account currency.
E.g.
All FX: 100,000 (units per lot) X position size X pips (0.00010)
All Equity index: 1 (contract per lot) X position size X price change
Energy/Oils: 1,000 (contracts per lot) X position size X price change
XAUUSD: 100 (ounces per lot) X position size X price change, etc.
FX pairs: Lot size X 100,000 (base currency).
Equity CFDs: Lot size X Price = Value in ‘Margin Currency’
Oil CFDs: Lot size X 1,000 X Price = Value (USD)
Metals (XAU, XPD, XPT): Lot size X 100 X Price = Value (USD)
Metals (XAG): Lot size X 5000 X Price = Value (USD)
Margin Required = Volume in Lots x Contract Size / Leverage
Margin Level % = Free Equity / Used Margin * 100
