Strategy Analyzer does not work

[mbulic]

I moved NinjaTrader 7 to another PC and although Strategy Analyzer window starts, the Backtest tab does not slide out and I get the following error in the log:

The strategy 'SampleMultiInstrument/01f1bbb3e13e48908725f9124ada8c64' has called the Add() method with an invalid instrument. Either 'TICK' does not exist in the Instrument Manager or the specified exchange has not been configured.

The SampleMultiInstrument strategy is a system strategy and I can't delete or modify it; besides, it does not add TICK, but MSFT. I do have TICK defined in other strategies; those strategies compile fine. I can also display charts with TICK.

Hello Mbulic,

Thank you for your note

Do you know the full Syntax of how you are adding the TICK to the strategy?

You should have a Caret in front of it, "^TICK"

[mbulic]

Here it is:

Add("^TICK", PeriodType.Minute, 1);

Yes, it does have a caret in front of it, and the strategy compiled and backtested fine on the old PC.

I have to mention that I moved NT by using the Backup on the old PC, then Restore on the new one, although it did not move the strategies for some reason (which is probably causing this problem now?), so I exported the strategies separately and imported them on the new PC.
