Hello HighTrade,

Is this occurring with any other indicators?

Can you add this FFD2 indicator to a new chart?

[HighTrade]

I was able to add my indicator FFD2 to a new chart , with no problem , saving workspace get error both from the new chart. and the old chart both with FFD2 indicator.

[HighTrade]

the problem does not occur with other indicators.

Hello HighTrade,

If no other indicators are able to reproduce, this may be an issue with this indicator.

May I have the importable .zip file for the indicator so I may test it on my end?

[HighTrade]

Here is the zip file

Hello HighTrade,

I wanted to let you know that I am able to reproduce the behavior, which means something is wrong with the script.

I haven't yet had a moment to discover the cause yet though.

However, is this a script you have made or one that you have imported?

Have you reported this behavior to the vendor or author of the script so that they may correct the script? (Especially as they may still be distributing this script)

Hello HighTrade,

The public Connection object is not using the XmlIgnore() attribute.
This should be a private variable.

I made the connection private and no more errors. thank you .

I am getting the same error HighTrade was getting. But I couldn't find a "public Connection" statement

can you point out what I need to change

thanks

[cre8able]

I can place the indicator on a chart and it loads fine with no errors. It's only when I try to save a template that I get errors.

Whatever I'm doing wrong, I'm very consistent. I have 6 indicators with the same problem

Hello cre8able,

Do you have public objects?

Are those all using the XmlIgnore attribute?

[cre8able]

thanks Chelsea

I changed the series to private then created a property to make it public

[NinjaTrader_ChelseaB]

Hello cre8able,

That wouldn't be necessary. It's fine to have a public series, as long as it is using the XmlIgnore attribute.

The Connection object from post# 9 does not need public as it does not need to be accessible from outside of the class.
