Hello geo123,

Thank you for your inquiry.

The first message is asking you if you want to replace any of the system indicators with the versions that are saved in the .zip file. We recommend always hitting no if it asks you to replace any indicators that have an @ symbol in the name, as you likely already have the newest versions of those indicators.

The second message generally means that you have a conflict between something in the file that you are attempting to import and something that you already have installed. Finding the source of the conflict can be kind of tricky because it's normally other third party items or some of their associated files. You're gonna have to unzip the file, and manually copy and paste it's contents into C:\Users\<Yourusername>\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom. After we do that, we would run a compile to isolate the cause of conflict (since the compile errors will let us know which 2 files are in conflict with one another). If you are unsure how to do that, let me know and I can give you more detailed instruction.
