Example - Trade the XAUUSD.r symbol with my broker (with suffix)

• Goal: My broker provides the XAUUSD.r symbol for the gold market as in general my broker offers the symbols with the .r suffix for trading. I want to trade the XAUUSD.r symbol when a signal for the XAUUSD comes in.
• How-to: Here is an example EA configuration how to achieve the above:
  1. Attach the EA to a FOREX pair with the .r suffix, e.g. EURUSD.r
  2. Leave empty the Signal Market Symbols as no symbol replacement is required.
  3. Leave empty the Broker Market Symbols as no symbol replacement is required.
  4. Market Name Prefix/Suffix Handling = Automatic: Prefix & Suffix Discovered By EA
• Description: The EA picks up automatically the suffix of .r from the EURUSD.r chart name. A signal comes in to trade the XAUUSD symbol. The EA keeps the XAUUSD name and appends the .r suffix and executes the trade on the XAUUSD.r symbol with my broker.
  Note: A signal may come in for other symbols as well. If you want to replace any of those other symbols then list them at the Signal Market Symbols and Broker Market Symbols in order to get them replaced.
