if the code hangs up in an infinite loop, is there a way to get out of it, without killing ninja ?

thanks

Hello,

Thanks for the forum post.

This is the only way really to get out of an infinite loop. You need to be carefull not to code these in your custom code. If you are playing around with something that might do this the only other suggestion is adding a break point with visual studio to allow you to stop the code execution. However this requires microsoft visual studio. Let me know if you have this and I will include instructions on how to do this.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Brett, thanks for your reply. No I dont have the Microsoft Visual Studio unfortunately. I just cant figure out why the code is hanging up...

Hello,

If you still having issue with it. Please send the code to support at ninjatrader dot com and a second pair of eye will usually do the trick.

Please reference this forum post if you choose to send the code in.

I look forward to assisting you further.

Brett, I erased everything and re-wrote the code and it works as expected. too many nested ifs and I lost track somewhere along the way and caused it to go into a loop.
thanks much for your help

Hello.

I managed to script something that is on a chart that has me stuck in an infinite loop. At least it appears that way as the chart has been spending over 10 minutes trying to load.

I can try to fix my script, but the problem is I cannot open or close that workspace to get that chart off with that stuck indicator.

I tried to remove the workspace from the NT folder, still starts up with that old workspace.

I also tried to remove the 'stuck' indicator from my folder.

Is there anyway I can get back into things, or is my NT install trashed?

I got it. I see I was removing the wrong workspace out of the folder. I removed them all, and got back in.

Glad to hear you got it working, forrestang. Let us know if you need anything else.

Another suggestion is to never save the workspace with the indicator on a chart. That way when NT freezes and you need to kill it with Task Manager you can safely restart NT.
