NT7 Workspace to NT8

[dmking]

Pardon me if this has been asked elsewhere.

1. Is there a migration guide for NT7 users thinking of going to 8?

2. How do I migrate NT7 Workspaces to NT8?

Thanks in advance

Hello dmking,

Thank you for your support forum post.

You can locate the migration guide at the following link:

Workspaces from NinjaTrader 7 cannot be migrated to NinjaTrader 8 and will need to be re-created in NinjaTrader 8.

Thanks Ryan, Does the guide include info for moving and recompiling code from 7-->8?

To migrate your own custom NinjaScript indicators and strategies, you will first need to update your code to reflect the significant changes to the NinjaScript libraries.

Comprehensive information on code-breaking changes can be found at the link below, and we recommend utilizing the Language Reference in our online Help Guide throughout the code conversion process:
