To compute how much percent you gained, just get the amount in dollars you gained and divide it by your account balance before the trade. For example, if you risked a dollar per pip, and gained 100 pips, your account would have gained 5% (100$ / 2000$).

You can use this handy formula for computing the percentage gain in your account:
[ (Dollars per pip) x (Number of pips gained) ] / (Initial account balance)
