Create Indicator in NT8?

[Dolfan]

I've just completed an indicator for NT7 and I want to convert it to NT8. I didn't see anything describing this in help. Can someone enlighten me please? Thanks!

Best regards,

Hello Dolfan,

Thank you for writing in.

I would suggest taking a look at the Code Breaking Changes documentation in the NinjaTrader 8 help guide. It provides a high level overview of the NinjaScript changes you can expect between NinjaTrader 7 and NinjaTrader 8.

Please, let us know if we may be of further assistance.

Thanks but I was already familiar with this list and pan to refer to it as I convert. What I am missing (probably in plain sight) is where I start a New Indicator, perhaps a basic one from scratch to copy code over to before converting per the new list. Is this a new process? I am used to using the Wizard to start and indicator or strategy, then unlock the code and proceed from there. I realize the Wizard in not yet available so, where to start?

Best regards,

Dolfan

Hello Dolfan,

To create a new indicator, click on New -> NinjaScript Editor.

Once the NinjaScript Editor window appears, you'll see a panel in the right-hand side of this window called NinjaScript Explorer. Right-click the Indicators folder and then select New Inidicator.

There we go. Thank so much.
