Plan your stop-loss and take-profit levels before entering. Know the risk/reward ratio and the minimum win rate you need to be profitable.
Entry costs you the spread immediately, and every night you hold adds the swap. Break-even is the point where the move has paid both back β everything to the right of the marker is profit.
The default numbers are a one-lot EUR/USD trade held three nights. Put your own instrument's spread, swap and pip value in β all three are on its page, and the calculator above gives the pip value in your account currency.
The P&L above is calculated on price movement alone. Your actual trade profit is lower by the spread β FxPro's typical USD/ZAR spread of ~3 pips means your real entry is 3 pips worse than the quoted price. Subtract spread cost from your take-profit target when planning entries.
cTrader account on FxPro offers tighter raw spreads with a separate commission β worth checking for active traders.
