UK100 Lot Size Calculator (FTSE 100)

Calculate UK100 pip value, points, lot size, margin and profit for any account currency.

UK100 is a CFD on the FTSE 100, the index of the 100 largest companies on the London Stock Exchange by market value. It is heavy in energy, mining, banking, pharmaceutical and consumer-staples shares, and most of its members earn a large part of their revenue abroad. As a result, a weaker pound often supports the index, while commodity prices and global growth also play a big role, along with Bank of England policy. Activity is concentrated in the London cash session, 8:00 to 16:30 UK time, with extra moves when US markets open. The index is priced in pounds, so a point is worth £1 per lot at many brokers and must be converted with GBPUSD for a dollar account.
