Points VS Pips - page 153

 
Taras Slobodyanik:

1 pip is a constant:

1 dollar
1 barrel
1 cent
1 yen
1 euro cent
1 kopeck

and the accuracy of quoting (point MT) has nothing to do with it

Then why are you dragging this pip into forex?

 
Taras Slobodyanik:

because there are no other Points

point MT is not a Point, it is a technical term, an instrument scale

Everywhere else point is a term.

There are as many other clauses as you like, look in the dictionary. Let's also talk about the verb get...

I am not dragging it, it was MQ who started promoting it.

once again:if MQ hadn't started using the word pips instead of points, there would be no questions for them, at all.

The point is that the term pips appeared in the terminal (and on the site in Signals), which is not described anywhere (neither in the site documentation nor in the terminal helps).
Question - why introduce a new (undefined) term into the terminal?
And why, the value of this new pips, does not correspond to the value of pips at other brokers and monitors?

Someone has clearly screwed up somewhere at some point.

clear


He only understood it after the explanation when they added the word "... distance ..."
