You also emailed us about this this morning. I have included our response below.

Hello,

Thank you for writing in.

It seems that you are is missing curly braces in the OnBarUpdate section of your script. Curly braces would need to be added to your if statements regarding the time parameters. Please see the publicly available links below for more information about using curly braces in C# and if statements.

To get a basic foundation for the concepts and syntax used in NinjaScript I would recommend this section of articles in our help guide first:

Also, here is a link to our publicly available training video, 'NinjaScript Editor 401', for you to view at your own convenience.

I am also linking you to the Educational Resources section of the Help Guide to help you get started with NinjaScript:

And the MSDN (Microsft Developers Network) C# Language Reference.

I have personally found DotNetPerls to be a very helpful publicly available educational resource with simple, direct, and easy to follow examples.
