Lot
A Lot is the standard unit of currency trading in the Forex market and typically includes 100,000 units of the base currency. So for example if we open a trade with one lot in the USD/JPY, then the value of this lot is $ 100,000. A pip therefore has $10 value and the value of a pip in a mini lot (10,000 units) or Micro-Lot (1,000 units) $1 or $0,10.
