How do I calculate profit/loss?
When a trader buys a currency that later appreciates in value, the trader must sell the currency back in order to lock in the profit. An open trade or open position is one in which a trader has either bought/sold one currency pair and has not sold/bought back the equivalent amount to effectively close the position. Once a position is closed, the profits or losses can be calculated. For example, if a trader sells 100,000 EUR/USD at 1.2340 and then buys 100,000 EUR/USD at 1.2760, his net position in EUR is zero (100,000-100,000) however his USD is not. The USD position is calculated as follows 100,000*1.2340 = $123,400 long and -100,000*1.2810= -$128,100 short. The profit or loss is always in the secondary currency. In this case the profits and losses are in USD. The example shows a profit of $4700.
