2. Returns true or false depending on whether a function is successfully performed. In case of success, the value of the property is placed into a recipient variable, passed by reference by the last parameter.

bool  SymbolInfoInteger(
   string  name,        // symbol
   int     prop_id,     // identifier of a property
   long&   long_var     // here we assume the property value
   );

Parameters

name

[in] Symbol name.

prop_id

[in] Identifier of a symbol property. The value can be one of the values of the ENUM_SYMBOL_INFO_INTEGER enumeration.

long_var

[out] Variable of the long type receiving the value of the requested property.

The value of int type.

Example:

void OnTick()
  {
//--- obtain spread from the symbol properties
   bool spreadfloat=SymbolInfoInteger(Symbol(),SYMBOL_SPREAD_FLOAT);
   string comm=StringFormat("Spread %s = %I64d points\r\n",
                            spreadfloat?"floating":"fixed",
                            SymbolInfoInteger(Symbol(),SYMBOL_SPREAD));
//--- now let's calculate the spread by ourselves
   double ask=SymbolInfoDouble(Symbol(),SYMBOL_ASK);
   double bid=SymbolInfoDouble(Symbol(),SYMBOL_BID);
   double spread=ask-bid;
   int spread_points=(int)MathRound(spread/SymbolInfoDouble(Symbol(),SYMBOL_POINT));
   comm=comm+"Calculated spread = "+(string)spread_points+" points";
   Comment(comm);
  }
