Hello aworldtrader18,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

I am not aware of any site that offers a "converter", you may want to do an internet search for such. To manually convert these your self would require working with NinjaScript which is based on the C# programming language so you would need to be familiar with the syntax of C#. We do not provide conversion services.

NinjaScripts are built on C#. While we do not provide programming education services in the Support Department, there are a vast number of educational C# resources external to NinjaTrader and we do have some tutorials and tools that can assist in the learning process.

Many users report that a good way to start before fully learning C# is to go through the NinjaTrader 7 NinjaScript tutorials in the help documentation to get a fundamental grasp on .NET framework and how it is used in NinjaScript. From there I suggest looking at the Code Breaking changes for NinjaTrader 8 to understand the differences between NinjaTrader 7 and NinjaTrader 8.
You can view the tutorials for NinjaTrader 7 here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...?tutorials.htm

Although we do not currently provide NinjaScript tutorials like in NinjaTrader 7, we do provide in-depth help documentation on developing NinjaScripts for NinjaTrader 8. We also provide samples and a complete reference of the language. More in depth educational resources can be found elsewhere throughout the internet.
You can find the educational resources here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG..._resources.htm

Once you have a basic understanding of C#, I suggest following the documented Code Breaking changes between NinjaTrader 7 and NinjaTrader 8. This page also gives an overview for NinjaScripts in NinjaTrader 8. You can find the Code Breaking changes here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...ng_changes.htm

Other users have wrote in about this information in our support forums here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...d.php?p=488807

Also available are webinars on the NinjaScript editor and the Strategy Builder. The Strategy Builder can be used to generate NinjaScript syntax for NinjaScript strategies. You may wish to create a strategy and clicking View Code after each piece of logic created in the Builder to observe the generated syntax.

Our documentation will be your best friend while developing, and the complete supported NinjaScript interface can be referenced here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/en-us/
The information above is publicly available.

You may find that others have converted and posted their indicators in the "user apps" section of the ecosystem. These are free to download and use, here is a link to the available NT8 indicators: https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/use...r-8-indicators Please note: The NinjaTrader Ecosystem website is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered a solicitation to buy or sell a futures contract or make any other type of investment decision.
