Suggestion for correct custom format for an accounting numbers

Hi- can someone help me whats the custom format if i want to make an amount as below:

if negative should be (x,xxx)

if positive should be x,xxx

if 0 should be -

all should be whole numbers

I am currently using _(*#,##_);_(* (#,##);_(* -_)

but its showing () for 0 amount with decimals and negative. I want it to be just - because when rounded it should be 0.
