Syminfo.Type

Hello traders

Earlier this week I discovered a new built-in variable called syminfo.type

What is it for?

This variable returns the type of the current symbol. Possible values are cfd, stock, futures, indices, forex, crypto, fund.

Cool bro but... should we care?

Well... we all should. Imagine you have a generic script and you want a different configuration whether you're trading FOREX or Crypto.
I designed a dummy example in that script that will preset the inputs according to the asset type from the chart.
Here I want 12/26/9 for forex and 20/50/50 for crypto - 30/60/90 otherwise

Quick caveat

It seems that for any crypto asset, syminfo.type returns "bitcoin". TradingView will fix it at some point but wanted to give you the heads-up regardless

Enjoy and all the BEST ^^
