Hello panther6500,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader Support Forum!
This code is not in a format that would be recognized as an indicator in NinjaTrader 7. Do you know what version of NinjaTrader this was developed for? Or what trading platform?

How to get script to work with NT7
I have a script I found online of an indicator I have been looking for. Unfortunately I have no background in coding and not exactly sure on how I can import this text into a working indicator for NT7. I would appreciate any guidance on importing this to work with NT7. I have the copy of the script as it was presented on the webpage:
Its a Trade Volume Index [TVI] indicator
Code:#region Namespaces using System; #endregion namespace ScriptCode { /// <summary> /// Indicator scripts are used for calculating a series of numerical values. /// /// This script can be used in several ways: /// (1) It can be used on a chart. /// (2) It can be used from another script. /// (3) It can be used as a script column in a watchlist. /// </summary> public partial class MyIndicator : IndicatorScriptBase // NEVER CHANGE THE CLASS NAME { #region Variables // Use for the underlying symbol index on which to calculate the indicator script. private int _symbolIndex; // Use for the minimum tick size. private double _MTV; #endregion #region OnInitialize /// <summary> /// This function accepts the user parameters for the script and is called when a new indicator instance is created. /// One of the parameters accepted by it must be that of a symbol or another script that is /// based on a symbol (drawing, indicator, pattern or signal).
