Hello hdge4u,

Thanks for your post.

This message indicates that you have compile errors on your platform that need to be resolved before you are able to use the Strategy Builder.

Please follow the instructions below to see where the errors are coming from after compiling any indicator.

For NinjaTrader 8:

• Open NinjaTrader
• From the Control Center select the New menu--> select NinjaScript Editor
• Right-click in the window and select Compile to compile all NinjaScript objects
• At the bottom of the NinjaScript Editor window, a new section will appear where you can find the error locations
• You can exclude the file referenced in the editor by double-clicking on the appropriate object type on the right of the NinjaScript Editor window. This will expand the object type folder. You can then select the file with a left-click--> right click on the object--> then select Open to begin debugging the file, Exclude From Compilation, or Remove to delete the file.

If you are unsure as to what the error is indicating, please send me a screenshot of the NinjaScript File column and Error column fully visible (not to be confused with the Code column)

• To send a screenshot with Windows 7 or newer I would recommend using Windows Snipping Tool.
  • Click here for instructions
• Alternatively to send a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screenshot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CTRL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save as a jpeg file and send the file as an attachment.

Hello hdge4u,

Thanks for your note.

Please send a screenshot of the error message you see when trying to compile in the Strategy Builder.

To send a screenshot with Windows 10 or newer I would recommend using the Windows Snipping Tool.

• Click here for instructions
  • Alternatively to send a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screenshot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CTRL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save it as a jpeg file and send the file as an attachment.

Also, open a New > NinjaScript Editor window and run a compile. Do you see any compile errors appear? If so, what exactly do they report?

Are the scripts you excluded earlier created by you? Or, do they come default with NinjaTrader?

I look forward to assisting further.
