Setting user input variable parameters

[sdauteuil]

What is the best way to set the parameters for a user defined variable?

I would like to limit the input to a simple "y" or "n".

Also if possible a pop up if the user enters a value outside the parameters.

Hello sdauteuil,

A bool is a true or false value.

Try adding a bool user input using the Strategy Builder.

Below is a link to a forum post with helpful information about getting started with NinjaScript.

NinjaTrader does not create a popup if a number value is outside of the allowed range. Instead it changes the value to be within range.

You could change the value to allow a greater range of unacceptable values, and then have custom logic to call Alert() to the Alert Log window if the value is a number you want to trigger an alert for.

You could also have a custom addon window open.
