Hello saeed,
Thank you for the message.

While you are still unable to label the horizontal lines by default, I was able to find a couple of 3rd party add-ons that appear to add this functionality.

These indicators are publicly available on our NinjaTrader Ecosystem website:

• https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/use...izontal-lines/
• https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/use...-drawing-tool/

Here is a short video demonstration of the import process:

• Install a 3rd Party Indicator or App

Here is a basic guideline of how to import NinjaScript add-ons in NinjaTrader 8:

Note — To import NinjaScripts you will need the original .zip file.

To Import:

1. Download the NinjaScripts to your desktop, keep them in the compressed .zip file.
2. From the Control Center window select the menu Tools > Import > NinjaScript Add-on...
3. Select the downloaded .zip file
4. NinjaTrader will then confirm if the import has been successful.

Critical - Specifically for some NinjaScripts, it will prompt that you are running newer versions of @SMA, @EMA, etc. and ask if you want to replace, press 'No'


If you receive a message when you go to import the indicator, please include a screenshot of the error message in your next response.

• If you are unsure of how to take a screenshot, I recommend using the Windows Snipping tool.

• Click on the Windows Icon at the bottom of your screen and type the word "Snip"
• Click on the Snipping tool, click New, then click and drag around the area you want to screenshot
• Click File > Save As > Save the screenshot where you can find it

This is the Error message that i get

Hello saeed,
Thank you for the updates.

Please follow the instructions below to see where the errors are coming from after compiling the indicator. This will allow you to debug the indicator/strategy or remove it from your PC. If you are wondering why you receive an error when compiling only one indicator, it is because NinjaTrader always compiles all indicators and strategies - not just one. This is done to give you the highest runtime performance possible.

• Open NinjaTrader
• From the Control Center select the New menu--> select NinjaScript Editor
• 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)

• If you are unsure of how to take a screenshot, I recommend using the Windows Snipping tool.

• Click on the Windows Icon at the bottom of your screen and type the word "Snip"
• Click on the Snipping tool, click New, then click and drag around the area you want to screenshot
• Click File > Save As > Save the screenshot where you can find it

Hello saeed,
Thank you for the updates.

Please perform the following steps for these error messages that look like the one below first:



This error is caused when NinjaTrader is searching for a reference to a .dll file, and the reference does not exist.

Steps to Resolve

1. Right-click within the NinjaScript Editor window and select "References".
2. Click "Add".
3. Locate the .dll file for the file mentioned in the error.
4. Click "Open" to add the reference.
5. Click "OK" and recompile.
   • You may need to add the references for a few different .dll files from looking at your screenshots

Please follow along with this publicly available video for a demonstration of the process above:

Once you remove all of the errors related to the error message above, please respond with updated screenshots of any errors that remain.

If no more errors appear after clicking compile, you are ready to import the new NInjaScript add-ons.
