Problem adding Indicators to Strategies

[dcmdp]

In Tips you discuss, setting the panel of an indicator to plot in a strategy:

http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/forum/showthread.php?t=3228

You say to do:

==================================
For example:

To add a volume indicator to your charts you need to add this code snippet into the Initialize() section of your code.
Code:
Add(VOL());
To choose which panel you want your indicator plotted on you can use this code snippet into the Initialize() section:
Code:
VOLMA(20).Panel = 2;
Add(VOLMA(20));
====================================

I did this with this indicator that opperates on the Dataset of another indicator (fisherTransform):

=============================

// Transform
Add(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod));
// Linear Regression of fisher Transform & put it in the panel above
LinRegSlopeSFX(FisherTransform(fisherPeriod),!EMA, LinRegPeriod,LINREGR).Panel=2 ;
Add(LinRegSlopeSFX( FisherTransform(fisherPeriod),!EMA,LinRegPeriod,LI NREGR));

=====================================

It gave errors:
Method must have a return type
and
Identifier expected col 23
and
Invalid token"" in class struct interface member declaration

What can I do?

looks like I'm getting lots of errors that I didn't have before

Here is the complete code section: FYI

protected override void Initialize()
{
private const int SLOPE = 1, LINREGR =2, ERROR=3, EXP = true; //exponetial or linear average;
// SlopeChgPeak(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),lowEnterHysteresis,highEnterHysteres is).Plots[1].Pen.Color = Color.Orange;
// HMAnoOverlay(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),6).Plots[1].Pen.Color = Color.Green;
// FisherTransform( fisherPeriod).Plots[1]. Pen.Color = Color.Blue;
// RSquared(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),4).Plots[2].Pen.Color = Color.Blue;

// Transform
Add(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod));
// Linear Regression of fisher Transform & put it in the panel above
// LinRegSlopeSFX( FisherTransform(fisherPeriod),!EMA,LinRegPeriod,LI NREGR); // .Panel=2 ; --> error asked support
//link to support: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ad.php?t=39457
Add(LinRegSlopeSFX( FisherTransform(fisherPeriod),!EMA,LinRegPeriod,LI NREGR));
// Slope of Fisher Transform
Add(LinRegSlopeSFX( FisherTransform(fisherPeriod),!EMA,LinRegPeriod,SL OPE));
// R squared of Fisher Transform
Add(RSquared(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),rSquaredPeriod));

CalculateOnBarClose = true;

//Add(HMAnoOverlay(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),HMAperiod)); // Add(LinReg(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),6));
// Add(SlopeChgPeak(HMAnoOverlay(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),HMAperiod),lowEnterHysteresis,highEn terHysteresis)); //(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod)

// Add(LinRegSlopeSFXSFX(HMAnoOverlay(FisherTransform ( fisherPeriod),26),20));

}

I had this code before and it compiled ok:

protected override void Initialize()
{


// SlopeChgPeak(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),lowEnterHysteresis,highEnterHysteres is).Plots[1].Pen.Color = Color.Orange;
// HMAnoOverlay(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),6).Plots[1].Pen.Color = Color.Green;
// FisherTransform( fisherPeriod).Plots[1].Pen.Color = Color.Blue;
// RSquared(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),4).Plots[2].Pen.Color = Color.Blue;

Add(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod));

Add(SlopeChgPeak(HMAnoOverlay(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),hMAperiod),enterShortHysteresis,ente rLongHysteresis)); //(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod)
Add(RSquared(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),hMAperiod));
// Add(LinRegSlope(HMAnoOverlay(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),26),20));
Add(HMAnoOverlay(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),hMAperiod)); // Add(LinReg(FisherTransform( fisherPeriod),6));

CalculateOnBarClose = true;
}

Hello,

Thanks for the forum post.

What parameters does

LinRegSlopeSFX

take? I'm not familiur with this custom indicator.

If you'd like I can goto File->Utilities->Export NinjaScript and send your strategy to support at ninjatrader dot com and reference this forum post I can look into the correct syntax you should use.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

[dcmdp]

for Ref: Here is the code for LinRegSlopeSFX

FYI it has this at the end:
" return _indicator.LinRegSlopeSFX(input, exponential, period, returnval);
}"

here's the link to LinRegSlopeSFX

Hello,

Have you compiled this indicator in NinjaTrader 7 in the past without issue? As it may need new wrappers generated arround it to be used in NinjaTrader 7 since its a NinjaTrader 6.5 exported indicator.

If so I would still need you to send code in for me to play with it to find where the error is.

I look forward to assisting you further.

[dcmdp]

Yes, the LINREGSLOPESFX() compiled ok.

It may be a 6.5 version...since in his description on the board, he talks about the LinRegrSlope() from NT as being last delta/interval....but now in version 7...your and his indicator have the exact same readouts.

Perhaps, I should just use the NT one.

I would like to know what is involved in conversion from 6.5 to 7 vers NT and What a wrapper is.

[dcmdp]

I emailed the code to support.

both codesets....LinRegrSlope() and my fisher6

thxs so much

[dcmdp]

Is there a link to the process of code conversion from 6.5 to 7?

Hello,

I did not recieve your strategy/indicator. Can you please resend make sure it to support at ninjatrader dot com ATTN: Brett reference this forum post.
