Euro / Japanese Yen

EUR/JPY Pip Value

The most traded yen cross, pairing the euro against Japan's low-yielding currency.

EUR/JPY is the most liquid of the yen crosses — effectively the market's benchmark for trading European currencies against Japan's. Like all JPY-quoted pairs it uses a 0.01 pip size, making a standard lot worth ¥1,000 per pip; at a USD/JPY rate of 150 that is about $6.67 per pip in a dollar account, and the value moves as the yen does.

The cross sits between its parents in temperament: livelier than EUR/USD, calmer than GBP/JPY, with typical daily ranges around 100 pips. It carries a strong risk-sentiment signature — when equities rally, yield-seeking flows lift EUR/JPY, and in risk-off episodes the yen bid knocks it lower — so it often functions as an FX expression of the broader risk trade. ECB policy on one side and Bank of Japan policy shifts on the other set the longer trend; BoJ surprises in particular have produced some of the pair's largest single-day moves.

How EUR/JPY pip value works

Pip value is the monetary change in a position from a one-pip move in the exchange rate, for a given position size.

pip value (quote currency) = pip size × units traded. EUR/JPY is JPY-quoted, so pip size is 0.01.

Because the quote currency is JPY (not USD), pip value must be converted at the current JPY/USD rate — enter that rate in the pip value calculator.
