Routing Rules
Bridge routing rules select the MT4 orders to process and the XCore Connector Account used for execution. Use sec, sym, g, c, and color to match MT4 instruments or accounts, and acc to select the XCore Connector Account.
The selector syntax follows the MetaQuotes pattern conventions. Separate parameters with semicolons.

sec |
MT4 security or symbol path. Supports comma-separated paths; masks can be * or end with \*.sec=* — all securities selected for Bridge processing.sec=Forex\* — paths under Forex\*.sec=!Forex\*,* — all paths except Forex\*.sec=!Forex-MET\*,Forex\* — paths under Forex\*, excluding Forex-MET\*. |
sym |

Note: Each rule's Value field is limited to 127 characters.
Note: For group matching, the MT4 Bridge first compares the part of the pattern before * with the group name. If that part matches the complete group name, the Bridge accepts the match and ignores the remaining pattern after *.
