JP225 Lot Size Calculator (Nikkei 225)
Calculate JP225 pip value, points, lot size, margin and profit for any account currency.
JP225 is a CFD on the Nikkei 225, Japan's best-known stock index of 225 large companies listed in Tokyo. Like the Dow it is price-weighted, so a few high-priced shares carry a lot of influence. It is closely linked to the yen: a weaker yen tends to support Japan's exporters and the index, while a stronger yen can weigh on it. Bank of Japan policy, US markets and global risk mood also matter. The cash market trades during Tokyo hours, but the CFD follows futures that trade almost around the clock, so it often moves during European and US hours too. The index is priced in yen, so the point value is in yen and must be converted using USDJPY.

Calculation notes
- Default: 1 lot = ¥1 per point. Many brokers use ¥100 or other values per point; edit the contract size to match.
- USD value per point = (yen per point × lots) ÷ USDJPY, so it changes with the exchange rate.
- Margin is calculated in yen (contract × price ÷ leverage) and then converted to your account currency.
FAQ

With a ¥1 per point contract it is ¥1, or about $0.0067 at USDJPY 150. With ¥100 per point it is ¥100, about $0.67 per point at USDJPY 150.
What lot size on JP225 risking $100 with a 50-point stop?
With a ¥100 per point contract at USDJPY 150, each point is $0.6667 per lot, so lots = $100 ÷ (50 × $0.6667) = 3 lots.
Why does the yen matter for JP225 profits?
Your P&L is earned in yen, so a USD account converts it at USDJPY. The same point gain is worth fewer dollars when USDJPY is higher.
