    Hello Christian,

    PIP stands for "Percentage in Point" or "Price Interest Point" and is a unit of measurement used in forex trading to indicate the smallest price movement that a currency can make.

    In forex trading, currency prices are quoted in pairs, such as EUR/USD or USD/JPY. The pip value for each currency pair is different, and it is typically measured in the fourth decimal place. For example, if the EUR/USD currency pair is quoted at 1.2020, and it moves up to 1.2021, that represents a one-pip increase in the value of the Euro relative to the US dollar.

    The value of a pip depends on the size of the trade, the currency pair being traded, and the exchange rate. It is important for forex traders to understand the concept of pips and how to calculate their value, as it is a key factor in determining potential profits and losses in forex trading.

    I hope this information will be helpful to you.
