    Of course they do!

    But in most answers it is done indirectly because most of the answers use ticks.
    I explain in the lectures that the value of 1 tick is the contract size x 0.01 / 400, and so the dividing by 400 is taken into account there.

    You are welcome to use ticks in the exam, but I think it is easier to do it the way in the lectures – it gives always exactly the same answer.
