UKOIL Lot Size and Pip Value Calculator: Contract Size, Tick Value & Kelly Sizing

Direct Technical Answer

UKOIL contract size is 100 or 1,000 barrels per lot, with about $10.00 per $0.10 on the 100-bbl CFD (matching USOIL). Typical spread is 2.5 to 4.5 ticks with a $1.50 to $2.75 daily ATR. For $100,000, lots = 1000 / (stop × 10) = 1.66 standard lots at a $0.60 stop (or 16.6 100-bbl lots).

Brent starts at 07:00 UTC on ICE London, 6 hours before NYMEX WTI. European session traders get the energy trend first, then EIA at 14:30 UTC still slaps both. Spreads 2.5 to 4.5 ticks are a bit worse than WTI. OPEC and Red Sea headlines gap Brent harder than Cushing inventory. Same $0.60 / 1.66-lot 1% math as USOIL if the barrel count matches; different clock, different geopol risk.

Same barrel math as WTI, slightly wider spread

If 1.00 lot is 100 barrels at $10 per $0.10, 16.6 lots at $0.60 is 1%. If 1,000 barrels, 1.66 lots. Confirm like USOIL. Spread 2.5 to 4.5 ticks ($0.025 to $0.045) is wider, so a $0.20 scalp is a worse fee than on WTI. ATR $1.50 to $2.75, a shade tighter than WTI's $1.60 to $2.90.

Handles 74.00, 75.00, 77.50. ICE London 07:00 to 11:00 UTC is the unique window. NYMEX overlap 13:00 to 17:00 UTC is when Brent and WTI trade as a pair.

London 07:00 UTC trend, then EIA, then OPEC/Red Sea

Unlike WTI, Brent can trend 80 cents in European morning before US inventory. That is the edge. EIA still matters because the complex is global. OPEC+ and Red Sea shipping headlines are Brent-specific gaps that Cushing EIA does not fully capture.

connect your MT5 account to Venasri and use Brent as the 07:00 UTC energy ticket, then decide whether WTI is needed at all in NY. Two full oil tickets are one crude bet with two spreads.

1.66 / 16.6 lots at $0.60, haircut if WTI is open

Same formula as USOIL once tick matches. 1.66 CL-style or 16.6 CFD at 1%, 0.83 / 8.3 at 0.50%. Scalp $0.20 to $0.35 only if spread is under 3 ticks in London, which is not guaranteed. Intraday $0.45 to $0.75, swing $1.15 to $2.00. Feed the tick to the Half-Kelly Lot Size Calculator & Equity Guard.

If USOIL is already 8.3 CFD lots, UKOIL is 0.00 or 3 lots residual. Correlation about 0.95. Red Sea days: cut 50% even if EIA is empty.

Trade ICE morning, reduce into EIA, respect OPEC geography

Best: 07:00 to 11:00 UTC after the ICE open settles, $1 handles, 8.3 CFD lots, $0.60-class stop. 13:00 to 17:00 UTC only if WTI is flat. Flatten or 4 lots into 14:30 UTC Wednesday. Flatten Friday into OPEC weekends if required.

Confirm barrel spec, unused WTI budget, EIA/OPEC/Red Sea calendar on the Pre-Trade AI Confluence Checklist. UKOIL is the European energy clock. It is not a delayed USOIL clone you size twice.

Frequently Asked Questions: UKOIL Lot Size and Pip Value Calculator: Contract Size, Tick Value & Kelly Sizing

What is UKOIL pip value per 1.00 lot?

Match USOIL: often $10 per $0.10 on 100 barrels, or $10 per $0.01 on 1,000 barrels. Spreads are 2.5 to 4.5 ticks, wider than WTI, so friction on a $0.20 stop is worse. Confirm MT5.

What lot size is 1% of $100,000 on UKOIL?

1.66 standard 1,000-bbl lots or 16.6 100-bbl lots at a $0.60 stop, same dollars as WTI if the tick matches. 8.3 CFD lots at 0.50%. Recalculate if your Brent spec differs from your WTI spec at the same broker.

Why trade Brent at 07:00 UTC instead of waiting for NYMEX?

ICE London is when Brent has its own trend, 6 hours before WTI pit. European energy flow shows up here first. Waiting for 13:00 UTC throws away the reason this symbol exists on a London prop desk.

How do OPEC and Red Sea change Brent lots versus WTI?

Pip value stays the same. Gap risk rises more on Brent for Middle East shipping headlines. Cut 50% or flatten into those stamps even if EIA is not due. WTI still moves, but Brent is the first gap.
