Creating a Utilities folder

[NinjaTrader_Jim]

Hello RandyT,

Thanks for your post.

We typically advise to create shared methods in a separate file and then to create partial classes for your indicator or strategy based shared methods. You may also add code to the AddOn namespace or your own namespace as well. The NinjaScript that calls these methods will then need to reference the shared methods with the fully qualified namespace or add a using directive for that namespace to find the methods.

For example, code within:

namespace NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.AddOns.MySharedMethods
{
	public void MyMethod()
	{}

Will have to be referenced like:

NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.AddOns.MySharedMethods.MyMethod();

or

using NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.AddOnsMySharedMethods;

...

MyMethod();

Creating a new folder does not create a new namespace, this will have to be added to the script.

An example for shared methods that we have shared previously can be found below.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

I have a number of shared Functions or Methods that I use in a number of different indicators and strategies. I was hoping that adding a folder into the Class hierarchy would be as easy as creating that folder. But alas...

Could someone guide me toward how to create this setup?

Would be a useful thing if NT did this by default.
