🎯 Take profit calculator

Take-profit price, target pips and profit.

Set the pair, direction, entry and target at the top of the app. This tab shows the take-profit price, the target in pips, and the gross and net profit, all from the same engine.

Take-profit price

The take-profit is direction-aware. On a long (buy) trade you profit as the price rises, so the take-profit sits above the entry. On a short (sell) trade you profit as the price falls, so it sits below. Putting the target on the wrong side of the entry is the most common mistake, and the tool flags it inline rather than showing a negative profit as if it were valid.

How to Set a Forex Take Profit

Five steps, and none of them involve a server.

1
Set the pair, direction and entry

Direction decides which side the target sits on — above the entry for a long, below for a short. The entry price and pip size come from your platform.

2
Choose how you set the target

A take-profit price, a distance in pips, a profit amount, or a risk/reward ratio against a stop. Whichever you pick, the tool fills in the others from the same engine.

3
Enter the pip value and position

Gross profit is the target distance in pips times the pip value, and pip value is not $10 for every pair, so enter the one that matches your position and account currency.

4
Read the price, pips and profit

The take-profit price on the correct side of the entry, the distance in pips, and the gross profit at that target, with an inline flag if the target is on the wrong side.

5
Subtract the costs for net

Spread, commission and swap are shown apart from the gross profit to give a net profit, and a net-profit target adds them back so the price you get truly clears the costs.

From Target to Price to Profit

EUR/USD long at 1.10000, a 50-pip target, 0.20 lots.

StepValue
Price movement (50 × 0.0001)0.00500
Take-profit price (1.10000 + 0.00500)1.10500
Pip value (0.20 lots)$2.00 / pip
Gross profit (50 × $2)$100.00
Trading costs (spread + comm + swap)−$10.00
Net profit ($100 − $10)$90.00

The target sits above the entry because this is a long, and a target below it would be a mistake, not a small gain, and the tool flags that inline. Gross profit is the target distance times the pip value; the trading costs come off separately to give the net. Turn it around and a net-profit target adds the costs back, pushing the take-profit a little further so the price you get truly clears them.

Your 1:2 Is Not a 1:2

Every row is drawn on the chart as 1:2, with a round-trip cost of 1.7 pips and a pip worth $10.

Target Stop A win actually pays A loss actually costs Real risk to reward
10 pips 5.0 pips 8.3 pips 83.00 6.7 pips 67.00 1 : 1.24 short by 0.76
25 pips 12.5 pips 23.3 pips 233.00 14.2 pips 142.00 1 : 1.64 short by 0.36
50 pips 25.0 pips 48.3 pips 483.00 26.7 pips 267.00 1 : 1.81 short by 0.19
75 pips 37.5 pips 73.3 pips 733.00 39.2 pips 392.00 1 : 1.87 short by 0.13
100 pips 50.0 pips 98.3 pips 983.00 51.7 pips 517.00 1 : 1.90 short by 0.10

The reason every row falls short is that costs work against you twice, in opposite directions. When you win, the spread and commission come out of the target, so it pays less than it should. When you lose, they are added on top of the stop, so it costs more than it should. The distance on the chart is symmetrical. The money is not.

What matters is how quickly that gap grows as the target shrinks. A 100-pip target barely notices, coming in at 1:1.90 instead of 1:2. A 10-pip target is a different trade entirely: it is really 1:1.24, which needs a far higher win rate to break even than the number on your chart suggests. Nothing about the strategy changed. The costs simply take a much larger share of a small move.

Two practical consequences. If you trade short targets, set the take-profit past the level rather than at it, because the cost has to come out of the move before anything reaches you. And when comparing your results against a plan, compare the net ratio rather than the drawn one, or a system that looked like a 1:2 and behaved like a 1:1.24 will look like a discipline problem when it was arithmetic all along.

The Formulas, With Worked Numbers

EUR/USD, one entry, a 50-pip target.

WhatFormulaWorked example
Long take-profit price TP price = Entry + (TP pips × Pip size) 1.10000 + 50 × 0.0001 = 1.10500
Short take-profit price TP price = Entry − (TP pips × Pip size) 1.10000 − 50 × 0.0001 = 1.09500
Target pips Target pips = |Price diff| ÷ Pip size 0.00500 ÷ 0.0001 = 50 pips
Gross profit Gross = Target pips × Pip value 50 × $2 = $100
Required pips for profit Required pips = Desired profit ÷ Pip value $100 ÷ $2 = 50 pips
Net profit Net = Gross − Spread − Comm − Swap − Other 100 − 5 − 3 − 2 = $90
Net-target gross Gross needed = Desired net + Total costs $100 + $10 = $110
Risk / reward Ratio = Reward pips ÷ Risk pips 50 ÷ 25 = 1 : 2
Risk-based target TP = Entry ± (Risk pips × Ratio × Pip size) 1.10000 + 25 × 2 × 0.0001 = 1.10500
Break-even price BE = Entry ± (Total cost ÷ Pip value × Pip size) 1.10000 + 10÷2 × 0.0001 = 1.10050
Return on position Return % = Profit ÷ Position value × 100 $100 ÷ $22,000 = 0.45%

Things Worth Knowing

The assumptions behind every number on this page.

The take-profit is direction-aware. On a long (buy) trade you profit as the price rises, so the take-profit sits above the entry. On a short (sell) trade you profit as the price falls, so it sits below. Putting the target on the wrong side of the entry is the most common mistake, and the tool flags it inline rather than showing a negative profit as if it were valid.
A target can be set four ways. A price, a distance in pips, a profit amount, or a risk/reward ratio against a stop. Whichever you choose, the others follow from the same engine, so set the profit you want and the tool gives the price; set the price and it gives the profit.
Pip value is not $10 for every pair. It depends on the pair, the pip size, your position size and your account currency. The gross profit is the target distance in pips times the pip value, so an incorrect pip value throws off the profit and the required price alike.
Gross and net are kept apart. The target distance gives the gross profit; spread, commission and swap are subtracted separately to give the net profit. The two are never blended silently, and a net-profit target adds the costs back on top so the price you get actually clears them.
Risk and reward come from real prices. The risk is the distance from the entry to the stop, the reward the distance to the take-profit, and the ratio is reward over risk. A ratio is a description of a setup, never a recommendation, and the tool does not call any ratio good or bad.
Break-even is where the target starts to pay. Before the market moves you have paid the spread, and usually commission and swap, so a trade opens slightly behind. Break-even is the price that just covers those costs, the point past which the take-profit begins to show a real net profit.
Profit may be earned in another currency. Where the quote currency differs from your account currency, the profit has to be converted, and the rate needed is a live market number this page will not invent. Enter it, and until you do, the account-currency figure is withheld rather than guessed.
These are estimates from the numbers you type. Actual results differ because of spreads, commissions, swaps, slippage, execution prices, liquidity, broker specifications and currency conversion. Check every figure against your own account before relying on it.
None of this is financial advice. No trade, direction, target, ratio or profit level is recommended, and no setup is called good or bad. The tool works out the price and the profit from the numbers you enter, and the judgement stays with you.

What This Calculator Does

And, just as importantly, what it refuses to assume.

Correct side, every time

The target sits above the entry for a long and below for a short, and a target on the wrong side is flagged inline, not turned into a negative profit shown as valid.

Four ways to a target

Set the take-profit by price, by pips, by a profit amount, or by a risk/reward ratio against a stop, all from one engine, so the numbers always agree.

Gross and net apart

Spread, commission and swap are subtracted separately, so gross and net profit are always shown side by side rather than blended silently.

Risk, reward and break-even

The reward against a stop as a ratio, and the break-even price that the target has to clear before the profit is real.

Targets and scenarios

Several take-profit levels with a combined profit, and scenario tables showing how the profit grows as the target widens.

About the Forex Take Profit Calculator

A take-profit is the price at which you close a winning trade and bank the gain. Setting one well is a small piece of arithmetic that is easy to get subtly wrong: the target has to be on the right side of the entry, the pip value has to match the position, and the trading costs have to come off before the profit is real. This calculator ties those together so a target is never just a hopeful line on a chart but a known price for a known profit.

The core relationship runs both ways. Forward: a target distance in pips times the pip value is the gross profit, and the take-profit price is the entry plus or minus that distance. Backward: a profit you want, divided by the pip value, is the pips you need, which placed on the correct side of the entry gives the price. Every tab draws on the same engine, so the take-profit price, the pips and the profit always agree with one another.

Direction is where take-profit maths most often slips, so the tool is strict about it. A long trade profits as the price rises, so its target sits above the entry; a short trade profits as the price falls, so its target sits below. A target placed on the wrong side is flagged inline rather than turned into a negative profit dressed up as a valid setup, because a long target below the entry is not a small gain, it is a mistake.

Costs are kept honest and separate. The target distance gives the gross profit, and spread, commission and swap are subtracted to give a net profit, each with a toggle so you can see its effect. Gross and net are never blended silently, and a net-profit target works the other way, adding the costs back to the figure you want so the take-profit price truly clears them. Pip value is treated as a real input rather than an assumed $10, and where the account and quote currencies differ, a conversion rate is asked for instead of invented.

Around the core sit the tools that use it. A risk/reward view that measures the reward against a stop and shows the ratio. A break-even price that the target has to clear before the profit is real. Multiple take-profit levels with a combined profit, and scenario tables that show how the profit grows as the target widens, each one a calculation and never a recommendation.

What the tool does not do is fetch a live price or rate, assume a broker's costs, or recommend a trade, a target or a ratio. It works out the take-profit price and the profit from the numbers you enter, keeps the target on the correct side of the entry, and shows its working.

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions that come up most often about forex take-profits.

Take the target distance in pips and multiply it by the pip size to get the price movement, then apply it to the correct side of your entry. For a long you add it, so a 50-pip target from an entry of 1.10000 gives a take-profit of 1.10500; for a short you subtract it, giving 1.09500. This calculator does that from any of four inputs: a price, a distance in pips, a profit amount, or a risk/reward ratio.

On a long (buy) trade you profit as the price rises, so the take-profit sits above the entry. On a short (sell) trade you profit as the price falls, so it sits below. Putting the target on the wrong side is the most common mistake, so if a long target is below the entry, or a short target above it, the tool shows an inline error rather than presenting a negative profit as a valid setup.

They come from the chart rather than from a calculator, and they come in that order: the stop goes where your reason for the trade stops being true, and the target goes where you actually expect price to reach, usually the next level, swing or range boundary. Once both prices exist, this tool works out what they are worth and what the risk to reward really is after costs. Setting a target simply because it makes a round number multiple of the stop is doing it backwards, and it produces targets the market has no reason to visit.

Because costs work against you in both directions. Winning takes the spread and commission out of the target, so it pays less than the distance suggests. Losing adds them on top of the stop, so it costs more. The distance is symmetrical and the money is not. On a wide target the effect is small, but a short target can be badly distorted: a 10-pip target against a 5-pip stop is drawn as 1:2 and, with 1.7 pips of round-trip cost, is really about 1:1.24. The table above shows this across a range of targets.

A fixed ratio is a useful discipline and a poor instruction. Insisting on 1:2 keeps you from taking trades that pay less than they risk, which is worth something. The trouble starts when the target is placed at twice the stop regardless of what is on the chart, because the market does not care about your multiple: a target sitting just past a major level will be rejected far more often than one placed before it. Use the ratio to reject setups, not to invent targets, and check what the ratio becomes after costs rather than before.

Divide the profit you want by the pip value to get the pips you need, then place that distance on the correct side of the entry. For $100 of profit at a pip value of $2, you need 50 pips, so a long take-profit sits 50 pips above the entry. The tool does this in the Target Profit tab, and a Net Profit tab adds the trading costs back so the price actually clears them.

Gross profit is the target distance in pips times the pip value, which is the profit from the price move alone. Net profit subtracts the trading costs: spread, commission and swap. The tool shows them separately and never blends them silently, so you always know whether a figure is before or after costs. A net-profit target works backwards, adding the costs to the profit you want so the take-profit price truly clears them.

The risk is the distance from the entry to your stop-loss, the reward the distance to your take-profit, and the ratio is reward divided by risk. A 25-pip risk with a 50-pip reward is a 1:2 ratio. You can also work the other way: set a ratio and a stop, and the tool places the take-profit at the reward distance that produces it. It describes the setup but does not recommend any particular ratio.

Ten dollars a pip is only true for a standard lot of a pair quoted in US dollars. Change the pair, the lot size or the account currency and the pip value changes with it. Because the gross profit is the target in pips times the pip value, an assumed $10 can throw off both the profit and the required price, so the tool takes the pip value from you and derives the per-lot figures from the pair.

Then the profit has to be converted into your account currency, and that needs an exchange rate. This page will not use a live rate silently. Enter the conversion rate and it is applied; leave it out and the account-currency figure is withheld with a note that a rate is required, rather than a misleading number being shown.

No. The take profit level and the gain it implies come from your own entry, lots and target, worked out here.
