    Setting up NT8 on New Computer - Missing some required Ninjascript files/definitions

    Hey,

    So I got a new computer and I made a backup from my old computer and copied several folders from the "C:\Users\matt\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom" folder to basically have no additional setup.

    However, looks like I am missing some files/definitions - see attached image. Any tips on how to resolve this?

    NT8 won't let me make a backup with these errors and I can't exclude TrendLines from the compilation as it is a system indicator.

    Thanks,
    Matt

    Hello,

    Thank you for your post.

    Glad to assist. To resolve these, first close NinjaTrader and repair the installation (Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Right click on NinjaTrader 8 > Repair).

    Next, restart and compile.
    For NinjaTrader 8:
    • Open NinjaTrader
    • From the Control Center select the New menu--> select NinjaScript Editor
    • Double click on the Indicators folder--> then double click on any of the indicators
    • Once the indicator code is in view right click in the window and select Compile to compile all NinjaScript objects
    • At the bottom of the NinjaScript Editor window, a new section will appear where you can find the error locations
    • You can exclude the file referenced in the editor by double clicking on the appropriate object type on the right of the NinjaScript Editor window. This will expand the object type folder. You can then select the file with a left click--> right click on the object--> then select Open to begin debugging the file, Exclude From Compilation, or Remove to delete the file.

    If you are unsure as to what the error is indicating, please send me a screenshot of the NinjaScript File column and Error column fully visible (not to be confused with the Code column)

    To send a screenshot with Windows 7 or newer I would recommend using Window's, Snipping Tool.

    Click here for instructions

    Alternatively to send a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screen shot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CTRL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save as a jpeg file and send the file as an attachment.
