Thyere are so many ways to get results

if(strfind(Name(),"JPY"))
{
  PointValue = 1000;
  TickSize = 0.01;
  MarginDeposit = 1000;
}
else
{
  PointValue = 100000;
  TickSize = 0.0001;
  MarginDeposit = 1000;
}

double check the values you had for PointValue for JPY symbols.
Easier to permanently place the values into the symbol information
though. Saves having to load the lines of code for every AFL.
