Error Message on Startup

[rc5781]

I'm began getting this error message every time I startup NT8 latest version. I'm actually getting 2 of those error messages. I was messing around with the drawing tools and that message popped up. Now, 2 of them are popping up every time I start NT8.

Hello rc5781,

Thank you for the message.

This message appears when there is something in the Workspace that is part of the Order Flow + add-on package.

If you were messing with Drawing Objects and Drawing Tools, it is likely you tried to draw an "Order Flow Volume Profile" or "Order Flow VWAP" on the chart which then caused it to start giving this message since you don't have the Order Flow + add-on with the Username you used to open NinjaTrader.

If you would like to use these Order Flow Drawing Tools along with the other Order Flow + Indicators and Data Series type, then please follow the guide below to enable the Order Flow + add-on and then restart NinjaTrader to check the new features out:

• How Can I Add NinjaTrader's Order Flow+ Features to My Account?
• Click here for more details and information on the various Order Flow + features and their settings

If you don't want the add-on at this time, you would want to remove those drawings from the charts or if you added any Order Flow + indicators to a chart, remove those as well.

• If you aren't sure where they are at, do the following on each chart in your workspace:
  • Right-click on the chart > Drawing tools > Drawing objects...
    • Look through the list on the left for anything "Order Flow" and remove it from the list and click OK
  • Then do a similar thing within the Right-click > Indicators menu on each chart window and remove any instances of the Order Flow + indicators there too.

Once there are no longer any instances of an Order Flow + Indicator, Drawing tool, or Bar type within your workspace, the message will stop appearing.


Please let us know if we may provide any further assistance.

Hello rc5781,

Thank you. This is exactly what happened. I don't have the add-on. When I tried to draw it on my chart, it added the drawing object even though I don't have the add-on. I deleted the "order flow" drawing objects from my charts and now the problem is solved.
