    Indicator development usning Strategy Builder

    Hello
    I am new to NT8 and trying to develop indicator using Strategy Builder and then add minor changes.
    I could only develop the file as strategy and the file is created under strategy.

    How can I develop as a indicator without entry/exit and also have the file available under indicator?

    Also anything that I need to pay attention when converting? (if conversion is available)

    Hello Marble,

    Thanks for your note.

    To create a NinjaScript indicator, open a New > NinjaScript Editor window, select the '+' tab at the bottom of the Editor window, select 'New Indicator'. Then, you could set up as much of the indicator as possible in the Indicator Builder. This will create the framework of the indicator or strategy

    Once you finish setting up as much as possible in the Indicator Builder, you must manually program the rest of the indicator. If you have set up some logic in a strategy script using the Strategy Builder, you could copy the code from that script over to your indicator script. Note that some errors may appear that would need to be resolved.

    Below is a link to a forum post with helpful information about getting started with NinjaScript.

    Here is a link to our publicly available training video, 'NinjaScript Editor 401', for you to view at your own convenience.

    I am also linking you to the Educational Resources section of the Help Guide to help you get started with NinjaScript: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help..._resources.htm

    If you are new to C#, to get a basic foundation for the concepts and syntax used in NinjaScript I would recommend this section of articles in our help guide first:
    https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...g_concepts.htm

    And the MSDN (Microsft Developers Network) C# Language Reference.

    Please let me know if I may assist further.​
