Using quotes in monitor recv string

I need to monitor a string that looks something like

recv “my status=“UP””

I saw another solution here that recommended using

recv ‘my status=\“UP\”’ but the output of that when listing the monitor is: recv “my status=\“UP\”” if the actual string is - my status=“UP” - do I want the \ in the monitor in order for it to be interpreted correctly?

Would it be better to write it with a wild card as recv “my status=.?UP.?”

backslash is the escape character.

my status=\"UP\"

would be proper.
