Upgraded this morning to latest release 6.0 10007, indicators downloaded from forum have disappeared totally. Tried to reiimport, get error window saying that I have custom Ninjascript files on my PC that have programming errors that must be resolved before I can import.

What gives? How can I know what files have programming errors? What happened to the previoiusly downloaded indicators?

Help.

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

You will need to remove all custom indicators from the file folder MyDocuments/NinjaTrader6/Bin/Custom/Indicators. All NinjaTrader preinstalled indicators will be represented with a '@' before the file name. You will need to move all indicators without a '@' in their file name to another file folder. Then move the custom indicators back to the file folder MyDocuments/NinjaTrader6/Bin/Custom/Indicators. You will repeat this until you find the indicator containing errors.

Do I import them one at a time, or just move them back one at a time?

I moved all indicators in the folder you indicated to a separate temp folder on my desktop (except for something called UserDefinedMethods.cs.

I still get the error message about script with programming errors.

Hello,
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’re wondering why you receive an error when compiling only one indicator, it is because NinjaTrader compiles all indicators and strategies. Not just one.
1) Open NinjaTrader
2) From the Control Center -> Tools -> Edit NinjaScript -> Indicator
3) Select an indicator and double click on it.
4) A new window will appear and you will need to right click and compile the indicator.
5) At the bottom of the window a new section will appear were you can find the error locations.
6) From there you have the option to remove the indicator or debug it.
Let me know if this does the trick for you.

Now you want me to put the non '@' indicators back into the bin/custom/indicator folder???

Do I just drag them back in, and Ninja will recognize them?

[pivot44]

I dragged the StatusBox indicator downloaded from the forum (which was working great until this mornings upgrade) back to the Indicator folder. I followed your instructions and compiled it, the error desctiptions all reference another set of indicators entirely, the trial indicators from Kase.

The same thing happened when compiling the ATR trailing stop indicator from the forum - Kase errors. By the way, the Kase indicators are working fine on my chart!!

Something is seriously messed up.

Sorry for the hassle.

At this stage, please uninstall NT, manually remove the folder My Documents\NinjaTrader XXX

Reboot PC
Clear you browser cache
Reinstall NT
Add back any 3rd party indicators

Please give me insturctions on how to save my ATM strategies; I do NOT want to have to create them from scratch. Same thing with chart templates.

Do you have any idea on what happened?

I found a fix for the above problem. No need to un/re-install anything

When NT tries to compile any custom indicator, it decides to compile all the indicators, including the Kase ones. Someone at Kase didn't add the reference to their DLL, which is what is causing the errors.

To fix:
1) Open any custom indicator.
2) In the code window that comes up, right click and select "References..."
3) In the next window that comes up, click "Add", and "KaseStatware.dll" should be right there, double click it to add it to the references list. If it's not there right away, I found it in "My Documents\NinjaTrader 6\bin\Custom"
4) Click "OK" on the references list box.
5) Now back at the code window, click the compile button, and it should recompile everything okay now.

If you have any problems with Kase StatWare from update to update email me, daniel@kaseco.com. I understand if you've downloaded NT 6.5 beta version, there will with an issue with the installer, there is a fix for it, but we're also waiting for the official release of 6.5.
