About

Pip Almanac is an independent reference for traders in South Africa: calculations, trading conditions and local specifics in one place.

What is here

Calculators for position size, pip value and trade result; an instrument reference with contract sizes; and a breakdown of local rules — taxation, regulation, funding methods, market hours.

How the data works

The site rests on 9 verifiable facts about the country and 44 about the broker's conditions, each with a source and a date. Exchange rates refresh automatically; instrument specifications are listed on the methodology page.

What this site is not

This is an information resource. It is not owned or operated by the broker. There is no investment advice here and no promise of returns: leveraged trading loses money quickly for a large share of retail accounts.
