AUDCHF Pip Calculator

Calculate AUDCHF pip value, points, lot size, margin and profit for any account currency.

AUDCHF prices the Australian dollar in Swiss francs. It sets a risk-sensitive commodity currency against one of the main safe havens, so it tends to rise when global growth expectations and metal prices improve and fall when markets turn defensive. Reserve Bank of Australia and Swiss National Bank policy, Chinese demand and Australian employment data are typical drivers. It is a lower-volume cross: the Sydney and Tokyo sessions bring Australian news, and the European session adds franc liquidity. The franc is the quote currency, so one pip (0.0001) on a 100,000 AUD lot equals CHF 10. Converting that into dollars uses USDCHF, which is why the dollar pip value on AUDCHF is often above $10.

Calculation notes

  • USD pip value per lot = 10 ÷ USDCHF; at USDCHF below 1.00 it exceeds $10.
  • Margin is based on 100,000 AUD, converted into your account currency at the AUD rate.
  • As a cross, spreads and swap rates are usually wider than on AUDUSD; check both before sizing.

FAQ

How much is 1 pip on AUDCHF with 1 lot?

Pip value = 100,000 × 0.0001 = CHF 10. At USDCHF 0.88 that is $11.36 per pip per lot and $0.11 for a micro lot.

How many lots on AUDCHF risking $100 with a 25-pip stop?

Lots = $100 ÷ (25 × $11.36) = 0.352, about 0.35 lots at USDCHF 0.88. The calculator updates this as the franc rate changes.

Is AUDCHF a risk-on or risk-off pair?

It is generally treated as a risk barometer because the Australian dollar is growth-sensitive and the franc is defensive. That affects direction, not the pip value formula.
