SMA variable gets *double" error

[elliot5]

private SMA AvexSlow;

AvexSlow = SMA(Closes[11], 100)[0];

gives compile error "cannot implicity convert type double to Ninjatrader.NinjaTraderIndicators.Type.SMA

any ideas on this? The variable is declared as an SMA... yet on compile is seen to be a double.... help appreciated.

Hello elliot5,

Based on the error your variable AvexSlow is of type SMA so you would need to remove the BarsAgo from the syntax you have shown:

AvexSlow = SMA(Closes[11], 100);
