USDCHF Pip Calculator (Swissy)
Calculate USDCHF pip value, points, lot size, margin and profit for any account currency.
USDCHF, the swissy, prices the US dollar in Swiss francs. The franc is a traditional safe-haven currency, so the pair often falls when global risk appetite drops, and it responds to Swiss National Bank policy, including its stated readiness to intervene in currency markets, as well as to Federal Reserve decisions and US data. It also tends to move in the opposite direction to EURUSD much of the time. The pair is most active in the European session and the London–New York overlap. Because the franc is the quote currency, one pip (0.0001) on 1 standard lot is CHF 10, and its dollar value is CHF 10 divided by the USDCHF rate, so it is not a fixed $10 as on EURUSD.

Calculation notes
- USD pip value per lot = 10 ÷ USDCHF; when USDCHF is below 1.00 a pip is worth more than $10.
- Margin in a USD account is price-independent: $100,000 ÷ leverage per standard lot.
- Profit is earned in francs and converted at the closing rate, so the calculator uses the exit price for the conversion.
FAQ
How much is 1 pip on USDCHF with 1 lot?
Pip value = 100,000 × 0.0001 = CHF 10. Converted to USD at a USDCHF rate of 0.88 that is 10 ÷ 0.88 = $11.36 per pip, or $1.14 for a mini lot.
What lot size for a 25-pip stop risking 1% of $10,000 on USDCHF?
Lots = $100 ÷ (25 × $11.36) = 0.352, so about 0.35 lots at USDCHF 0.88. The result changes slightly as the rate moves because the pip value does.
How much margin for 1 lot of USDCHF at 1:50?
With a USD account the notional is $100,000, so margin = $100,000 ÷ 50 = $2,000, whatever the current USDCHF price.
