How to make a simple Order Execute

[r3n3v]

When I try to create an example EnterLong(); I get an error giving the following: EnterLong does not exist in the current context. I tried this in both a stratgey and an indicator. What am I missing?

Thank you!!

Hello r3n3v,

Thank you for your note.

Without seeing your code I would be unable to know what the issue is however I highly suggest you open the NS Editor under Control Center>New>NinjaScript Editor, then clicking the strategies folder on the right and looking through those code examples. You also should consider working in the strategy builder, writing simple strategies, then clicking view code. A great way to learn.

I would encourage to see the information and links under Getting Started with NinjaScript

The following will introduce you to the strategy builder;
