NT8 tells me t expects a statement in a nested if situation

[galsermil]

NT8 allows the 'Allowed.txt' upload


But if I add one line as per 'Error.txt' upload I get an error message that a statement is expected on Line 253


I do not understand my problem. HELP.

Hello galsermil,

The line you marked with (Added line) is an else if.

There isn't any action for the else above it.

Try this instead:
if((Close[1] == LineSignal[1]) && ((Open[0] == Close[1]) || (Open[0] == (Close[1] +TickSize))))
{
}
/*(Added Line)*/ else if((Close[1] ==( LineSignal[1]+TickSize)) && ((Open[0] ==( Close[1] -TickSize)) || (Open[0] == Close[1]) || (Open[0] == (Close[1] +TickSize))))
EnterLong(Contracts,"SpeedTickPivot");

Chelsea,

I believe what you have done is close the 'if' block and then add the 'else if' but for my purposes there is another 'else if' to follow before the action of <Enter > is taken. Will I need to close the first ;else if' curly brackets before I add the second else if? Thank you

Hello galsermil,

I added a set of curly brases so that the if statement has an action block. The C# code you suggested in post #1 can't work because you have an if statement, no action block, and then an else if. That is invalid C#.

If you are unfamiliar with single line action blocks, I recommend you use curly braces for the action block of every if statement to make this less confusing.
