    Hi Sir,

    Can you please give me an idea of what is the standardized tick size ?

    In some books I have seen 1 tick= 0.00001 while in others it is 0.000001 ??

    This is all explained in my free lectures!!!!

    For foreign exchange futures, one tick = 0.0001

    For interest rate futures, one tick = 0.01

    (Although as I explain in my lectures, you never actually need to use ticks in the exam – I personally find it easier not to!)
