## What USDSGD is

### US dollar / Singapore dollar

**USDSGD** is the US dollar priced in Singapore dollars: a price of 1.3500 means one US dollar costs 1.3500 Singapore dollars. It is an exotic pair: a major currency against a smaller or emerging-market one, usually with wider spreads and larger swaps than the majors.

### When it trades

Forex trades around the clock from Sunday evening to Friday evening, New York time. USDSGD is busiest when New York and Tokyo are open, and most of all where two sessions overlap.

## USDSGD pip value, step by step

Pip value = 0.0001 × 100,000 ÷ USDSGD price, in US dollars

### Find the pip

A pip on USDSGD is 0.0001, the fourth decimal place. MetaTrader 5 quotes one more digit, so a point is a tenth of a pip (0.00001).

### Multiply by the lot

One standard lot is 100,000 US dollars, so a pip is 0.0001 × 100,000 = 10 SGD per lot; 0.10 lot is a tenth of that, 0.01 lot a hundredth.

### Convert to dollars

The quote currency is Singapore dollar, so divide by the price: at 1.3500, 10 ÷ 1.3500 = $7.41. The dollar value moves with the price.

### USDSGD: one pip and common moves, by lot size

1.00 lot **$7.41** (per pip) 0.10 lot **$0.74** (per pip) 0.01 lot **$0.07** (per pip) 30 pips on 1.00 lot **$222.22** (the stop in the example below) Worked example

### Risking 1% of $100,000 with a 30-pip stop

One lot loses $222.22 if a stop 30 pips away is hit (30 pips × $7.41 a pip). Risking 1% of a $100,000 account, $1,000, buys $1,000 ÷ $222.22 = **4.50 lots**, rounded down to the 0.01 lot step.

The $1,000 is a quarter of the $4,000 Max Daily Loss on a $100K Edge 1 Step, so four such losses in one day would reach it. Example price 1.3500: a round figure for the arithmetic, not a quote.

Money at risk **$1,000** (1% of $100,000) Loss per lot at the stop **$222.22** (30 pips) Lot size **4.50 lots** (rounded down to 0.01) Commission **$22.50 / $18.00** (round turn, Edge and Instant / Prime) Position value **$450,000** (at the example price 1.3500) Share of Max. Exposure **36%** (of $1,250,000 on a $100K account)

### Commission, leverage and margin on every CFD plan

Commission is round turn: half when the trade opens, half when it closes, the same in the evaluation and once funded. Margin is the position value divided by the plan's leverage ceiling, for 1.00 lot at the example price of 1.3500 ($100,000 of USD); the margin MetaTrader 5 shows when you place the order is the one that applies.

| Plan | Commission | Per side | Leverage | Margin, 1.00 lot |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Edge 1 Step | $5 per lot | $2.50 | 1:100 | $1,000 |
| Edge 2 Step | $5 per lot | $2.50 | 1:100 | $1,000 |
| Instant Pro | $5 per lot | $2.50 | 1:33 | $3,030 |
| Instant Go | $5 per lot | $2.50 | 1:25 | $4,000 |
| Prime 1 Step | $4 per lot | $2.00 | 1:50 | $2,000 |
| Prime 2 Step | $4 per lot | $2.00 | 1:100 | $1,000 |

## Rules that apply when you trade USDSGD

### Max. Exposure

Every open position counts at its full value against a cap set by account size: $1,250,000 on $100K. At the example price one lot of USDSGD is $100,000, so about **12.50 lots** fill the whole cap with nothing else open. Going over is a warning, and resets any profit to the starting balance; a second closes the account.

[The rule](https://whitepips.com/rules#rule-cfd-max-exposure)

### News trading

Allowed on every CFD plan. Not allowed: straddling, opening both directions (or offsetting positions on correlated instruments) within 15 minutes either side of a Red or Amber release to catch the spike. It is reviewed by the risk desk, never penalised automatically.

### Weekend holding

With the Weekend Holding add-on, keep USDSGD open over the weekend. Without it, positions still open at 4:45 PM New York time on Friday are closed by the system: the first time is a warning, the second closes the account.

[The rule](https://whitepips.com/rules#rule-cfd-weekend-holding)

### The thin-liquidity window

At most 20% of your profit may come from trades opened and closed between 21:00:00 and 22:59:59 UTC, every night, on every instrument. While it is over, payouts on that account are paused; once profit from outside the window brings the share back inside the limit, they open again by themselves. Overnight holding is allowed; swaps count like any other cost.
