    How to Check for Instrument Name in Strategy

    Hello Ninjatrader staff,

    I have been looking for an answer to this question on the forum, but I do not think it has been answered yet. What do I need to write before "ES" to make this line of code work?

    if (CurrentBars[0] > 5 && Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name == ???.ES)
    {
    Print("Instrument is ES.");
    }

    Hello GLFX005,

    The instrument name is a string so you would need to surround ES in quotes:

    Code:
    if (CurrentBars[0] > 5 && Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name == "ES")
