new compiled indicator can't be called?

[Burga1]

Hi,

I developed a new indicator for use within a strategy of mine. It is simply a modification of an older indicator. When I "call" the new indicator in my strategy I get a "The name (indicator name) does not exist in the current context" error. The new indicator compiles just fine, why can I not use it within my strategy??? This is very frustrating.

here is how I'm calling the "new" indicator in my strategy (throws an error):

if(Close[0] >= FiboBoll2(1.618, 1, 2.618, 1.27, 4.24, 0.5, 1, 8).Upper2[1]){do something}

and the "old" (works fine):

if(Close[0] >= FiboBoll(1.618, 2.618, 4.24, 1, 8).Upper2[1]){do something}

thanks in advance.

Hello Burga1,

Where are you calling the indicator from? It should be in the strategies OnBarUpdate() method.

It may help to use the intellisense command this. and then see if you can browse to your indicator.

Hello and thank you.

Yes it is within the strategy's OnBarUpdate() method. I simply want to replace the old instances of the old indicator and replace with the "new" one, what's the big deal?

I don't understand how to use the Intellisense "this" command...

OK I think I got it now. That "this." command worked to somehow "find" my new indicator so I could use it after I figured out how the command worked, thanks aain...
