Indicator could not be serialized

[akushyn]

Hello, dear support

I am writing now one indicator and when I try to save it into template I get the next message:
"Indicator "Ninjatrader.Indicator...." could not be serialized. Please refer help for more information on serializing indicators.

I am using followed properties:

		[Description("Bar span to consider for breakouts")]
		[GridCategory("Parameters")]
		public int Span {
			get { return span; }
			set { span = Math.Max(1, value); }
		}

		[Description("What to display (0=none, 1=dots, 2=lines, 3=both)")]
		[GridCategory("Parameters")]
		[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("Display Type")]
		public int DisplayType {
			get { return displayType; }
			set { displayType = Math.Max(0, value); }
		}
				
		[Description("Display/Hide switch points")]
		[GridCategory("Parameters")]
		public bool DisplayDiamonds {
			get { return displayDiamonds; }
			set { displayDiamonds = value; }
		}

And Misc to access some data from other indicators/strategies

		public  AkPoint FirstPoint
		{
			get { return patterns.P1; }
		}		
	
		public  AkPoint SecondPoint
		{
			get { return patterns.P2; }
		}		
		
		public  AkPoint CurrentPoint
		{
			get
			{
				Update();
				return patterns.Current;
			}
		}		
		
		public  AkDirrection Dirrection
		{
			get
			{
				Update();
				return patterns.Dirrection;
			}
		}	
		
		public  BoolSeries Switcher
		{
			get
			{
				return this.switcher;
			}
		}		

		public AkPoint LastHighPoint
		{
			get
			{
				Update();
				return lastHigh;
			}
		}
		
		public AkPoint LastLowPoint
		{
			get
			{
				Update();
				return lastLow;
			}
		}

		public ArrayList Points
		{
			get { return this.points; }
		}

		public ArrayList LowPoints
		{
			get { return this.lowPoints; }
		}

		public ArrayList HighPoints
		{

Hello akushyn,

Thank you for your note.

Without the full code I'm unable to test on my end.

The message you're getting suggests some of your indicators are not coded properly for serialization. Serialization is most commonly needed for user definable color inputs and allows these inputs to be saved in workspaces and chart templates. If these are your own custom coded indicators, a guide to serializing color inputs is available here:

If you are unable to resolve the issue, please upload a copy of the full code so we can take a look on our end.

To export a NinjaScript from NinjaTrader 7 do the following:
From the Control Center window select File -> Utilities-> Export NinjaScript...
Select the file in the left column then click “>”, then press export and name the file.
Then attach that file you saved; under My Docs>NT8>Bin>Custom>Select the downloaded .zip file.


Please let us know if you need further assistance.
