Calculation of profit and loss
100 pips of EURUSD is not the same as 100pips of XAU/USD. This is why we provide our monthly results not only in pips but also in real percentage change.
For example:
We buy GBP/USD at 1.50 and close the trade at 1.60. This means we made a profit of 1000 pips. In percentage change we made profit of 6.67% - no leverage!
Now if you have a account $10.000 and you trade with us, let's assume you bought $30.000 worth of GBP/USD ( using leverage 1:3). This would mean that you earned 20% on your account balance. This would be $2.000 of profit.
Now we buy Gold ( XAU/USD) at $1000,00/oz. and sell at $1010,00/oz. This time you also make 1000 pips of profit. But in percentage change it is different:
1000 pips= 1% of real percentage change.
So if you have an account balance of $10.000 and use 1:3 leverage to buy gold, you would make 3% return, i.e. $300.
The table below shows our real percentage profits for Months in 2010.
Assuming you have $10.000 balance on your account and use 1:3 leverage, this is the profit in USD that you would achieve, while following our trades:
| Month | Real % profit | Profit after leverage in % | Your account balance on the beginning of the month | Profit made and withdrawn. |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| March | 6,47% | 19,41% | 10000 | 1 941,00 |
| April | 3,28% | 9,84% | 10000 | 984,00 |
| May | 7,14% | 21,42% | 10000 | 2 142,00 |
| June | 1,01% | 3,03% | 10000 | 303,00 |
| July | 19,57% | 58,71% | 10000 | 5 871,00 |
| August | 9,30% | 27,90% | 10000 | 2 790,00 |
| September | 23,06% | 69,18% | 10000 | 6 918,00 |
| October | 3,15% | 9,45% | 10000 | 945,00 |
| TOTAL | 72,98% | 218,94% | 10000 | 21 894,00 |
So in 8 months you would make 21894.00.
