Chop Index indicator installation error

[bouncetherubble]

Hi

I tried to install this indicator in NT8 "Chop Index" from the NT App share, and got the attached error message :

https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/user-app-share-download/chop-index/

I checked for similar indicator names to be removed and clear the problem, but the only similar name is "Chopiness Index", and being a system indicator, it will not allow removal.

Please let me know where else to check...

Thanks much,
G

Hello bouncetherubble,

Thank you for the question.

This message generally means there would be a conflict between something you have installed currently and what you are importing.

You could manually install the item to test what the error is, if you are able to open the import screen and try to import the file, likely you don't have any compile errors so this would likely be a conflict.

To manually import, unzip the "Indicator" folder items (these are all .cs files) located in the zip file, and add the contents (not the folder) to your Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Indicator folder- you'll see other .cs files here.

After copying the file into the correct folder, complete a compile from the Control Center> New NinjaScript Editor> select any indicator> right click on the script> Compile.
A
new error should appear, please expand the Error column so I could read the details and provide a screenshot of the error. This should narrow down what is happening.

After doing this, you can remove the files you copied into the Indicator folder and complete a compile to return to the compiled or working state you were in previously.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
