Paste indictor script in Strategy

[AdeptistJune]

Good morning,

I built an indicator, but I want to copy and paste the entire script into a strategy instead of adding the indicator as a private variable in the public class scope of the strategy. Is this possible?

Hello AdeptistJune,

You can copy logic from one script to another.

Below is a link the NinjaScript Editor 401 training video which discusses this.

AdeptistJune I do not think you really want to copy your code from an indicator to a strategy what you want to do is leverage your indicator in a strategy they will get out of sync quickly
