    script vs c#

    I only see a few functions on the NinjaTrader "Language Reference" page.
    But I'm wonder if there are more functions? Like a library of functions and script examples? thanks

    Hello ezrollin,

    Thanks for your post.

    NinjaTrader utilizes the C# programming language for developing indicators and strategies.

    The best way to begin learning NinjaScript is to use the Strategy Builder. With the Strategy Builder, you can set up conditions and variables and then see the generated code in the NinjaScript Editor by clicking the View Code button.

    You could find Educational Resources in this section of the Help Guide linked below.
    https://ninjatrader.com/support/help..._resources.htm

    NinjaScript Reference Samples for indicators and strategies could be found in this help guide link: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ce_samples.htm

    Here you could find our C# Method (functions) Reference page: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help..._reference.htm

    And I understand that you have reviewed the Language Reference page, however, I am linking the Language Reference page here as well: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...erence_wip.htm

    Let us know if we may further assist.

      NinjaScript does not restrict you to a subset of C#.

      They have a plugin framework which they call 'NinjaScript' -- the primary plugin
      types are called Indicator, Strategy, and Addon.

      But don't let 'script' in the name 'NinjaScript' fool you. That is just a marketing
      name for their plugin architecture -- NinjaTrader is a .NET application and allows
      you to use the full power of .NET 4.8 in all your plugin programming.

      This forum is the primary support method to receive help and clarification on
      all things NinjaScript. The Help Guide is the official NinjaScript reference, with
      links to documentation, tutorials, and example code.

      While NinjaTrader does document and support their plugin architecture, this
      is not a general C# support forum -- some C# help may be provided, but
      always remember the primary focus is supporting the NinjaTrader product,

      My point is: if you need additional help or documentation on C# and/or .NET,
      try using Google to locate those kinds of resources. There is an extensive
      amount of C# documentation and some fantastic tutorials on the web.

      Good luck!
