Hello hir04068,

Thank you for your post.

It looks like you just missed the variable definition for the SMA you have used. If you copied this syntax from another location, you likely just missed the variable at the top:

public class smasa : Indicator
    {
[B]private SMA SMA1;[/B] 
        protected override void OnStateChange()

I look forward to being of further assistance.
