I am currently in a live trade on the USD/CHF and i entered at the price of 0.91823 it's currently showing I have a gain of 11.00 pips so far. I'm trying to figure out how much profit in US dollars that is . From what I've gathered, that would be $50 profit right ? I bought into this position with the full $50 I had gotten for free when I initially opened an account with FXCM strategy trader. Anyways, are my calculations way off, or am I close? Thanks man How have you been ? Thankv you guys for the help, I really appreciate it - Mike

What size is the position? How many lots?

Before you attempt to beat the odds, make sure you can survive the odds beating you.

Mike, this depends on your position size. NEVER, EVER TAKE A TRADE WITHOUT KNOWING THIS BASIC INFORMATION. This is numero uno.
