indicator modification question

[jjanguda]

Hi,

I installed Showbidasklevel indicator shared by fellow ninjatrader forum members.

But every time I load the indicator I have to change its parameter.
This is quite annoying.. so I want to change cs file.

I was able to find the installed cs file at document > NinjaTrader 7 > bin > Custom > Indicator folder.

I opened up the @showbidasknolabel.cs file using notepad and made some change
and saved the file. Then, I restarted ninjatrader platform and tried to load the indicator again.
But nothing changes...

Another way I tried is that I unzipped the original zip file and modified cs file and zip it again.
And I tried to import it again (I changed the name of zip file) but error message popped up.

Is there a way to uninstall this indicator so that I can do a clean installation?

Please help.

Thank you.

Hello jjanguda,

Thank you for writing in. After you modify the parameter in the indicator in your Documents > NinjaTrader 7 > bin > Custom > Indicator folder and resave it, you need to open NinjaTrader, navigate to Tools -> Edit NinjaScript -> Indicator -> [select any indicator] -> Press F5 on your keyboard to recompile. Then you can add the updated indicator to a chart.

To completely delete the indicator, please navigate to Documents > NinjaTrader 7 > bin > Custom > Indicator and delete the indicator. Then open NinjaTrader and navigate to Tools -> Edit NinjaScript -> Indicator -> [select any indicator] -> Press OK -> Press F5 to recompile.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
