Yes, both of them returns the symbol name.

Hi, I'm not sure I understand, but if you're referring to symbols with a prefix and/or suffix, here's an example:

//--- Get SYMBOL
   string SYMBOL = _Symbol;
   if(!StringToUpper(SYMBOL))
     {
      Print("Error getting current symbol name: ", GetLastError());
      return(INIT_FAILED);
     }

//--- Checks SETTINGS
   if(StringFind(SYMBOL, "EURUSD") >= 0)
     {
      Setting_EURUSD();
     }
