How the tick value calculator works
A tick is the smallest price movement a futures contract can make. Each futures contract has its own tick size and tick value.
Total dollar value = ticks × tick value × contracts
Example: NQ has a tick value of $5. If NQ moves 10 ticks and you are trading 1 contract:
10 ticks × $5 × 1 contract = $50
A tick value calculator is useful for quickly estimating profit, loss, stop-loss risk, slippage, and trade size.
