Is there a way to take symbols out of the tickerid in pinescript?

Question

I would apply this to Forex of course, so for example if i had chart of AUDJPY and

A = security(tickerid, period, close)

is there a possibility take the "AUD" and "JPY" from tickerid and store them as separate variables? thanks in advance

Answer 1

You need to use syminfo.basecurrency and syminfo.currency .

Example script:

//@version=4
study("AUDJPY split", overlay=true)

if (barstate.islast)
    var1 = syminfo.basecurrency
    var2 = syminfo.currency
    myText = "First=" + var1 + "\nSecond=" + var2
    label.new(bar_index, high, text=myText)
    
plot(na)
