Ethereum CFD Pip Value
Ethereum (ETH/USD) CFD pip values are highly broker-dependent. The values shown use indicative conventions. Always verify in your broker's MT4/MT5: right-click ETH/USD → Specification.
Most CFD brokers use 1 pip = $0.01 on ETH/USD, with 1 ETH per standard lot. This gives a pip value that changes with ETH price. At ETH/USD = 2,500: pip value = 0.01 ÷ 2,500 × 1 ETH × 100,000 units = variable depending on exact contract definition.
| Lot Size | Pip value (indicative) | ZAR @ 18.00 (indicative) |
|---|---|---|
| 0.01 | ~$0.01 | ~R0.18 |
| 0.10 | ~$0.10 | ~R1.80 |
| 1.00 | ~$1.00 | ~R18.00 |
Note: Live ETH price is fetched from CoinGecko in the ticker above. This provides market context but does not affect the pip value calculation (which uses a fixed contract convention).
Ethereum Volatility
Ethereum is significantly more volatile than traditional forex. Daily moves of 5–10% are common, and major catalysts (exchange hacks, regulatory news, protocol upgrades) can produce 20–30% single-day moves. Position sizing for crypto CFDs requires much smaller lot sizes than forex. Use the risk calculator above with a wide stop-loss (500+ pips) to reflect actual crypto volatility.
