It makes sense that they are already divided by lot size).

I'm confused by the comma after "Logically" )

ZS: points per lot? )

30 pp with 1 lot =30 pp\lot ))

No, that's not it.

i see it as adding up points for all trades and dividing by the number of trades

100%

shockingly - it was a thoughtless adherence to the rules (tradition?) of punctuation // "before what - always a comma"

for me personally, I always use commas according to their meaning. I discovered long ago that this rule-based arrangement leads to communication difficulties.

How else? If we're saying how many points per transaction, we must also divide by lot. The price passed so-and-so points, I took them, and the lot is not important.) The cost of one pip is not regulated in the same way.)

[Maxim Khrolenko]

Maybe you should look at a parameter such as how much $ per trade on average, rather than pips per trade.

The price is not changed in dollars, but the logic is correct, a pip is approximately equal to a dollar, thus normalising for all instruments.

You said it yourself: "how many pips per trade" )

i.e. the number of pips from one trade, in order to find an average of two trades, add up the pips and divide by 2.

Well, even if lot is not taken into account, if trades overlap in time, then it's not two trades, but one).

The "***/per-trade" criteria are not quite clear for this very reason. "***/per-trade" seems clearer, but there is a problem in calculation and interpretation, given the possibility of volume changes during a trade (which is almost always the case for me).

Buy, sell are different.
