<p id="isPasted">In the forex market, a "lot" is a standardized trading size. The size of one standard lot is 100,000 units of the base currency. The base currency is the first currency in a currency pair, and its value is expressed in terms of the second currency, which is known as the quote currency.</p><p><strong>For example:</strong></p><ul><li><p>In the currency pair EUR/USD, if you buy or sell one standard lot, you are dealing with 100,000 euros.</p></li><li><p>In the currency pair USD/JPY, if you buy or sell one standard lot, you are dealing with 100,000 U.S. dollars.</p></li></ul>
