What's wrong with this "If" statement?

[brooksrimes]

/// Called on each bar update event (incoming tick)
/// </summary>
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
// Use this method for calculating your indicator values. Assign a value to each
// plot below by replacing 'Close[0]' with your own formula.
If ((EMA(Close,4)[0]) > (EMA(Close,9)[0]))
Arrow0.Set(Close[0]);
//SlowPlot.Set(EMA(Close, 18)[0]);
}

I get a CS1002 error among others. But click on the CS1002 button gets a "page not found" error in my browser.

Thanks.

Hello brooksrimes,

Thank you for your post.

You will need to use a lower case 'i' in your if statements. Corrected below:

 
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
// Use this method for calculating your indicator values. Assign a value to each
// plot below by replacing 'Close[0]' with your own formula.
if ((EMA(Close,4)[0]) > (EMA(Close,9)[0]))
Arrow0.Set(Close[0]);
//SlowPlot.Set(EMA(Close, 18)[0]);
}

Thanks Ryan.

That's going to be a hard habit to break, I normally do VB/VBA.

I'm amazed the error message wasn't better, more specific.

Yes, can definitely be challenging when you're comfortable with one language and must adapt to the quirks of another.

There seems to be a bug in NT7 when I click on the button for the error number, it opens a browser window and says "page not found".

I wonder if that's on the fix list.

Hello Brooksrimes,

The NinjaTrader 7 help guide is still a work in progress but not all error codes will produce a help guide article. Since you're working with C#, it could be a programming error that doesn't have a specific NinjaScript connection.

You can see the error codes for version 7 that we have documented at the link below:

Hi Ryan,

The error is CS1002 which was on the list you posted. There must be a little bug where NT7 is not bringing the webpage from within the script editor. I understand NT7 is in beta. Is there a procedure for reporting "anomalies"?

Yes, please use the Version 7 Beta General Questions & Bug Reports section of our forums for Version 7 issue reporting.
