Most pairs have Ticksize = 0.0001. JPY is the only major to use 0.01 (some
minors do too).
Pairs typically trade in lots of 100000 of CCY1 (eg. for EURJPY it would be
E100000)
MarginDeposit is frequently 1% or 2% of lot size but this varies from broker to
broker. Often it is
further reduced if stops are used.
Pointvalue as it is used in AB was always a mystery to me given that the value
of one pip of price
movement is typically a multiple of CCY2 (eg. for AUDUSD it would be US$10; for
EURJPY it would be
JPY1000). Hope this helps. G
