Pip Value=(size of a Pip)/(Exchange Rate)*(Lot Size) [6] For example, .0001 divided by a USD/CAD exchange rate of 1.3600 and then multiplied by a standard lot size of 100,000 results in a pip value of $7.35. Having 100,000 USD bought against the Canadian dollar at 1.3600 and sold at 1.3601, gives a profit of 1 pip or $7.35.
If the tick is too big then the opposite happens and time priority is given far too much of an advantage. The size of a tick is picked to basically balance those two priorities. Tick sizes can be fixed (e.g., USD 0.0001) or vary according to the current price (common in European markets) with larger increments at higher prices.
Tick size is important as it determines the possible prices available. For example, each "tick" for the grain market (soybeans, corn and wheat) is 0.25 cents per bushel, on one 5,000-bushel futures contract.
The dynamic lot-size model in inventory theory, is a generalization of the economic order quantity model that takes into account that demand for the product varies over time. The model was introduced by Harvey M. Wagner and Thomson M. Whitin in 1958.

Lot quality assurance sampling (LQAS) is a random sampling methodology, originally developed in the 1920s [1] as a method of quality control in industrial production. Compared to similar sampling techniques like stratified and cluster sampling , LQAS provides less information but often requires substantially smaller sample sizes.
The pips on the top faces of these dice can be quickly counted as totalling 9. On dice, pips are small dots on each face of a die. These pips are typically arranged in patterns denoting the numbers one through n, where n is the number of faces. For the common six-sided die, the sum of the pips on opposing faces traditionally adds up to seven.
