The existing file on ".cs" on your PC is a newer version . . .

Yes or no? I've always clicked no but now the indicator I'm importing asked this 3 times.

If I click does it keep them separate from the default indicators?

I've included the pic on what I'm talking about below.

I would select no. Then the file on your PC is not overwritten with the one contained in the import archive.

Is there any instance when you'd want to overwrite the newer indicator?

Please consider allowing NinjaTrader to remember this choice and only ask to overwrite an existing file if it is a newer version than the one already there.

Being asked a million times if I want to overwrite the SMA/EMA with older versions gets tiresome after a while...

This along with continually being asked if I trust the users on the NT forum not to blow up my computer everytime I import an indicator makes the user experience in this part of the program not as pleasant as it could be.

Not that I can think of.
