    Strategy in chart is greyed out

    I am trying to add a strategy as follows:
    1. File->New->Chart
    Market=GC ##-## Daily chart
    2. Right Click->Strategy
    Unfortunately this form link is greyed out.

    I can add Strategy on another chart window for the same instrument and period.
    What did I do wrong?

    Hello,

    Thank you for your post.

    Please confirm you do not have Chart Trader enabled within your chart window. If Chart Trader is enabled please disable this feature and let me know if you can then add an auotomated strategy.

    Currently within NinjaTrader you may not have both Chart Trader and an automated strategy running in the same chart window.

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

      I cannot seem to find anywhere that someone takes the next step of actually explaining where one might disable this Chart Trader.

      Any ideas?

      Cheers

        To disable Chart Trader please left click on the Chart Trader icon within the chart toolbar which will be the 5th button from the right.

          Thanks i didn't realise that was actually disabling it. I guess part two is then how to enable strategies in the chart? I thought that the enabled Chart Trader was why the Strategies were not working.

          My Strategies icon is greyed.

          Cheers

            After disabling Chart Trader the Strategies button should then be available. Once this is available please left click on the Strategies button-->Select your strategy-->Set your parameters-->Enable and click Ok.

            I have provided a link below to our Help Guide that goes over Running NinjaScript Strategies.



            If the icon remains grey after disabling Chart Trader please send a note to Support [AT] NinjaTrader [DOT] com with "ATTN: Chris J" in the subject line.

            In the message, please include the following:
            1.) A link to this forum thread.
            2.) Your License key which can be found under Help-->About.

              My Strategies button is disabled as well

              I don't use Chart Trader at all, but I installed Shark Indicators, and the Strategies button was then disabled. I uninstalled Shark, but the button continues to be disabled.

              Thank you in advance for some assistance.

              Thank you,
              Angela

                  I restored my work space from a backup, and the Strategies button is available again.

                  Thanks for your response.
