GBPCAD Pip Calculator

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

GBPCAD prices the British pound in Canadian dollars. The pound side is driven by Bank of England policy and UK inflation and growth data, while the Canadian side responds to the Bank of Canada, oil prices and North American data. That combination gives the pair wide daily ranges and makes it sensitive to both European and North American news. Liquidity peaks from the London open through the New York morning, and Canadian data releases at 8:30 New York time often bring sharp moves. The Canadian dollar is the quote currency, so a pip (0.0001) on 1 standard lot equals CAD 10. A USD account converts at USDCAD, so each pip is worth less than $10, and the exact amount moves with the loonie.
