Custom indicators don't work after updating NT

[gannman]

Hi

I just "upgraded" to the latest version of NinjaTrader 6.5.1000.16.

Up until I installed this new version everything was working pretty well.

As soon as I run this version, I notice that all of the custom indicators that I have downloaded (mostly from this forum and Big Mike's) no longer appear in my indicator list.

Then, when I select File > Utilities > Import NinjaScript, I get the message that: "You have custom NinjaScript files on your PC that have programming errors. These errors must be resolved before you can import a NinjaScript Archive File."

WTF?

I have no idea which files have program errors, much less how to resolve said programming errors.

Would really appreciate some advice on what I should do next, if there is any out there...please!

Cheers
Simon

Hi gannman,

Let's see if we can narrow down which indicator is causing the error...


The error indicates your current NinjaScript files contain errors, which need to resolved first before you can import new NinjaScript files.

Please follow the instructions below to see where the errors are coming from after compiling any indicator or strategy. This will allow you to debug the indicator/ strategy or remove it from your PC. If you’re wondering why you receive an error when compiling only one indicator or strategy, it is because NinjaTrader compiles all indicators and strategies. Not just one.

1) Open NinjaTrader
2) From the Control Center -> Tools -> Edit NinjaScript -> Indicator
3) Select any indicator and double click on it.
4) A new window will appear and you will need to right click and compile the indicator.
5) At the bottom of the window a new section will appear were you can find the error locations. Double click the error and you will be directed to the location of the error.
6) From there you have the option to remove the indicator or debug it. You can delete NinjaScript files via Tools-->Edit NinjaScript-->Indicator/Strategy, highlight it and select Delete

You can find general debug information at the link below.
