Hello jasontaylor9676,

Thank for your post.

Developing strategies is not as easy as pasting code, you will have to have a basic understanding of the code we are working with.

Our Developing Strategies page of the Help Guide will be a good place to start to understand concepts about Strategy/Account Position and how to successfully develop strategies. Tutorials are included as well.

Our NinjaScript Editor 401 course can help you get introduced to editting code. If you are new to NinjaScript and C#, it can help to use the Strategy Builder to generate syntax. These videos are publicly available.
