Hello kevingrillo,

Thanks for your post.

You cannot manually code a strategy that has not been unlocked from the Strategy Builder. You would need to edit the strategy using the Strategy Builder. For example, if you needed to modify a condition in the strategy, you would do so in the Conditions and Actions screen of the Strategy Builder.

If you clicked the 'Unlock code' button and unlocked the script, the strategy would no longer appear in the available strategies list of the Strategy Builder since it was unlocked. To edit an unlocked strategy, you would need to open a New > NinjaScript Editor window, open the Strategies tab, and double-click on the strategy file to open it. Once you open the strategy file, you could edit the code of that file in the NinjaScript Editor window.

To save changes that have been made to the script you must click the Compile button in the NinjaScript Editor window to run a compile.
