You can try changing your formula to


PIP VALUE (For Forex Pairs)= ((B7 * FX!B2) / FX!E2) * FX!C2 * B8REQ Margin= (B4 * B7 * FX!B2 / B5)

Thanks Brenda... My problem now is how can I combine the formula... so it would work with gold and also with forex pairs?

You can use the if condition to check whether it is Gold or forex pair and it will apply the formula accordingly. Pip Value: =IF(A1="XAUUSD", ((B7 * FX!B2) * FX!C2) * B8, ((B7 * FX!B2) / FX!E2) * FX!C2 * B8)Required Margin: =IF(A1="XAUUSD", (B4 * B7 * FX!B2 / B5) * FX!D2, (B4 * B7 * FX!B2 / B5))

Might be having issues due to data structures. Try this one Formula=IF(A1="XAUUSD", ((B4 * B7 * FX!B2) / B5) * FX!D2, (B4 * B7 * FX!B2) / B5)- For XAUUSD: (B4 * B7 * FX!B2) / B5 calculates margin, then it’s multiplied by FX!D2 for adjustment- For Forex Pairs: (B4 * B7 * FX!B2) / B5 without extra multiplication

Hi brenda,


 


I added the new formula on the sheet please check it out...


everything works except for the required margin when using gold, it seems sheet formula doesn't follow the calculations even if we put the correct formula... how can we fix this?

Just curious -- why not use a lot size calculator provided by myfxbook?
