Let's say that you are trading FOURS at $1 per pip & you make 2 macros.
Looking left, under the PIP column & in the same row, you see that you are trading the equivalent of $4 per pip; which means that your two macros are worth $8.
2 FOURS is worth $1 x (2 x 4) = $8
2 TWOS is worth $2 x (2 x 2) = $8
If you gain 2 FOURS then you have exactly 2 TWOS or 2 of any other macro or even 2 pips at $4.
Two of something is two of something else, there is no need to pull out your calculator.
If you make 2 SIXTEENS at $.25 then you have made 2 PIPS at $4...that is four doubles, but you can still do it in your head.
EDIT: if you gain 12 macros at the equivalent of $4 PIPS and you want to bump it up to $4.80 PIPS then:
(4 / 4.8)12 = 10
and then we check ---> $4 x 12 = $48, $4.80 x 10 = $48.
So your 12 macros is worth 10 macros at the next PIP level.
