//--- Symbol filters. GetTotalProfit, GetPositionCount, GetTotalVolume and
//--- the AccountRisk.mqh totals take "" to mean EVERY symbol. A magic
//--- string such as "ALL" would not be checked by the compiler - a typo
//--- such as "all" would match nothing and the call would silently
//--- return 0.
//---
//--- Single-symbol functions are different: there "" means the current
//--- chart symbol.

//--- Magic-number filter meaning "any magic". MQL5 magic numbers are
//--- ulong, so there is no negative value to borrow as a sentinel -
//--- int and -1 would both truncate any magic above 2^31 and collide
//--- with a legitimate one.
