Hi.
Does anyone have a way of using a symbol or security name inside a condition in an expert advisor?
So for example:
writeif(<symbol> = "$$USDJPY", blabla)
At the moment the expert advisor does not like the above syntax with the constant being used in the condition.
Before anyone asks why :roll:
I am doing this because my expert is optimised for each security in a certain way, and I would like to have one expert with all the code, only listing the information relevant to the security currently being viewed.
Thanks
Gerrit

There is no direct way to do that but I think it's quite easy to do as long as you are using your expert on a daily chart.
Just use : If(C = security("ONLINE:$$usdjpy",C) , blabla, no blabla)
That being said, I've never used the "Security" function and I'm not sure i've used it correctly but I think you've got the idea !
