I'm trying to understand what a pip calculator is. I've heard the term before but I'm not entirely sure how it works or what it's used for. Can someone explain what a pip calculator is in simple terms?

    However, there are exceptions to this rule. Currency pairs involving the Japanese yen have a pip movement in the second decimal place, which is 0.01.

    For the majority of currency pairs, a pip equates to a movement in the fourth decimal place of the exchange rate, which is 0.0001.
