"Failed to call method 'Initialize' for indicator BTAutoPivots.' Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
What kind of thing should I be looking for in the code that might cause this kind of message? It doesn't seem to be affecting the performance of the indicator itself but how would I know. other than it doesn't work at all?
I'm adding the first part of the code and it clearly does have an initialization section.
Thanks
