GBPCHF Pip Calculator
Calculate GBPCHF pip value, points, lot size, margin and profit for any account currency.
GBPCHF prices the British pound in Swiss francs. It pairs a cyclical currency with a classic safe haven, so it often falls when European markets are under pressure and rises when risk appetite improves. Bank of England and Swiss National Bank decisions, UK inflation and growth data and any SNB comments on the franc are common catalysts. Most of the volume happens in the European session, from the Zurich and London opens to the London close, and the pair can be quiet in Asian hours. The franc is the quote currency, so one pip (0.0001) on 1 standard lot equals CHF 10. In a USD account that is divided by USDCHF, which often makes a GBPCHF pip worth more than $10.
