Identifying pairs that have the "FXF" in the symbol()

[Deleted] 2012.10.04 13:20

I am trying to work out how my EA can identify if the current Symbol() has "FXF" in the title, for example "EURUSDFXF"

This is what I have tried using and its all I can think of using:

if(Symbol()== ""+"FXF"){return(0);}

Can anyone suggest any ideas?

Thank you

You need to extract the last 3 characters of the string and see if it equals "FXF"

Something like this . . .

if( StringSubstr(Symbol(), StringLen(Symbol()) - 3, 3 ) == "FXF")
   Print("Symbol ends in FXF ! !");

if (StringFind(Symbol(), "FXF") >= 0)
