Quick Answer

On a 1 ETH contract, a $1 move is worth $1 per lot (100 pips at a $0.01 pip size). Crypto traders usually think in price levels, so enter your entry and stop prices in the calculator above and it converts them; contracts of 0.1 or 0.01 ETH per lot are also common.

Margin Calculator Formula

Margin = (Contract Size × Lots × Price × USD Rate) ÷ Leverage

Example (ETH/USD): 1 lot at 2,748.00 = $2,748 position; at 2:1 leverage: $2,748 ÷ 2 = $1,374

About ETH/USD — Ethereum / US Dollar

Ether is the native asset of the Ethereum network and the second-largest cryptocurrency. It usually moves in the same direction as Bitcoin but with larger swings, and it trades 24/7 — including weekends, when liquidity is thinner and price can gap through stops.
