Strategy works using data series <USDJPY> but not using data series <Primary>

[TradingAssassin]

Hi,

I have created a simple MACD Cross strategy which produces clear results when built with the data series <USDJPY>.

When I copy this strategy, replacing the data series with <Primary>, it does not produce any entries.

Unless I misundertand the meaning of the phrase 'Data Series <Primary>' This appears to be a bug, please advise?

Thanks!

Hello TradingAssassin,

I am moving your thread to the NinjaTrader Desktop -> Strategy Development section of the forums, as this is a question about programming NinjaScript Strategies in C#.

Are you referring to the Strategy Builder?

Use prints, added in the Strategy Builder, to understand why the condition is not evaluating as true. Print the time of the bar, all values used in the condition being investigated, include labels for each value and comparison operator.
Enable TraceOrders to see if orders are being ignored or cancelled.

Below is a link to a forum post that demonstrates using prints to understand behavior.
