Indicator Using Bool (Problem)

[Yassine.Chetouani]

Dear Sir or Madam,

With reference to the code below,
I want to inform you that I tried everything, read every treat, downloaded every solution to create my request without issues, without a hope I decided to right you in the forum.



My request is simple when 3 steps in order are fulfilled, and a final entry steps shows I want to plot an arrow. At the final step which will be my entry point manually.

Somehow, the indicator do not define the bool.
To find my mistake I plotted an arrow at the end of each step to understand the issue. So the code run without a bug, however, it plots regarding the situation without considering the bool I created, did I missed something?

Please, can you help me.

Hello Yassine.Chetouani ,

Is the issue that your condition1/2/3 are not being set after you set the plot? That could because you need to use brackets like the following,

  if (Step A == True)
{
              Plot3.Set(Low[0] - (3 * TickSize));      
                    condition1 = true;
                    condition2 = false;
                    condition3 = false;
}

If this is not the issue could you please provide more information as to what is expected vs what you are seeing, along with a full copy of the code exported in the following format.

To export a NinjaScript from NinjaTrader 7 do the following:
From the Control Center window select File -> Utilities-> Export NinjaScript...
Select the file in the left column then click “>”, then press export and name the file.
Then attach that file you saved; under My Docs>NT7>Bin>Custom>Select the downloaded .zip file.

I look forward to your reply.

Dear Mr. Alan,

Thank you for answering me,
I checked your answer &&
You are right I didn't add the brackets.
As soon as I added them, the code worked.
Thank you.
