Saving Indicator Parameters

[PDT123]

I am adding a parameter to an indicator which works fine but when I exit NinjaTrader the next time the workspace is opened the parameter is blank.

Here is the code I used for the parameter:

[XmlIgnore][Display(ResourceType = typeof(Custom.Resource), Name = "Symbol Name", Order = 1, GroupName = "NinjaScriptParameters")]
public string Symbol
{ get; set; }

This is a string with a symbol name (^DJIA, ES 06-16 etc.). Am I missing something to get the values to save?

This is running on NT 8.0.0.10 64-bit (Standard) - BETA

Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for the post.

This is simply the [XmlIgnore] attribute that is appended to the property.

Serialization is how items get saved, by adding the [XmlIgnore] it is saying to ignore this property from serialization.

Additionally you can omit the custom resource part, or:

[Display(Name = "Symbol Name", Order = 1, GroupName = "NinjaScriptParameters")]
public string Symbol
{ get; set; }

I look forward to being of further assistance.
