Loading indicator from xml

[ren37]

Hello

How can I create indicator from xml?
I tried like this but indicator has default values.
Previously I've saved indicator template to file with fileName.

            XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(StrategyFootprintIndicator));

​            System.IO.FileStream fs = new System.IO.FileStream(fileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open);
            FootprintIndicator = (StrategyFootprintIndicator)serializer.Deserialize(fs);
            fs.Close();

            FootprintIndicator.InitializeOnXmlLoading(this);

Hello ren37,

Indicators are automatically saved to xml (workspaces and templates) and any properly serialized properties will be saved.

Attempting to serialize this yourself would be outside of what NinjaTrader support is able to assist with.

Attempting to generate an instance of an indicator without calling the indicator method would be outside of what NinjaTrader support is able to assist with.

This thread will remain open for any community members that would like to provide direction.
