When define private variable with custom indicator it print out error

[prisonbreaker82]

I developed a custom Indicator called mRSI.

When I do private ATR atr; is not a problem, but when I run private mrsi mRSI;

I get the following error.

AmbitiousEquation.cs	'NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.Strategies.Strategy.mRSI( int)' is a 'method' but is used like a 'type'	CS0118	48	11

So I always have to refer it in the strategy directly, like if(Slope(mRSI(14),1,0) > 0) bla bla.. and not if(Slope(mrsi,1,0) > 0)

See attached working indicator.


public class AmbitiousEquation : Strategy
{
//private SMA smaPeriodHigherTimeFrame;
private ChoppinessIndex choppinessIndex;
private ATR atr;
private mrsi mRSI;

Hello prisonbreaker82,

Thanks for your post.

You are currently calling private mrsi mRSI; which would not be correct syntax since the name of the indicator is not all lowercase.

The fully qualified namespace of the indicator should be used in your script. For example, private NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.Indicators.Isak.mRSI mRSI1;

The Strategy Builder could be used to set up conditions using the mRSI indicator you shared. Then, you could click the 'View code' button to see the generated syntax for how it should be used in a NinjaScript strategy.

See this help guide page for more information about working with the Strategy Builder: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...gy_builder.htm

Please let us know if we may assist further.
