Taras Slobodyanik:

If MQ didn't use the word pips, there would be no questions asked of them, at all.

ps. sorry, I couldn't resist.

Usually they say: the Dow J Index is down so many points.
Let's see now on investing : 25,082.25
Here the pips are on the left side altogether

Rather it's not a question for MQ, but a question for their individual pips member. It's just not clear why this bug isn't being fixed...

 
Vladimir Baskakov:
25.082,25

  1. In the Russian interpretation, a comma (,) separates hundredths, and a dot in this case separates thousands.
  2. In the foreign interpretation, a dot (.) separates the thousandths, and the comma in this case is not a dirty word.

Which option is closer to you?

In simpler terms, 25082.25 is fine.
You tell me, where are the clauses?

There are pips in general on the left.

the question is how does MQ apply this term and why did they start using pips, equating it to their points?

You have not answered
 
Vladimir Baskakov:
You did not answer.

I answer - on each instrument the size of 1 pip is different, on indices most often = 1 dollar, on currencies = 1 cent
(the number of decimal points does not matter for 1 pip)

Is that OK?

 
Vladimir Baskakov:
Well, if it's simpler, it could be 25082.25.
You tell me, where are the points?

A change of one point would be 25082.26 or 25082.24.

OK?

Not really, specifically gone. Well even if they are, it's kind of like natural numbers. What are they doing in the fractional part

No, 25083. No one looks at the numbers after the spt in the indices
