Hi, i pasted code from the link below
http://traders.com/Documentation/FEEDbk_docs/2019/10/TradersTips.html

and this was the result



Seems like the directive at line 6 is used in the link to make the code work. In my code, the directive is grayed out. What am i missing?

You should not be pasting code published in that section before Feb 2021 as they had been created for Wealth-Lab 5/6. Thus, they speak an incompatible WL6 "dialect":

Here is a translation:

CODE:
using WealthLab.Backtest; using System; using WealthLab.Core; using WealthLab.Data; using WealthLab.Indicators; using System.Collections.Generic; namespace WealthScript1 { public class MyStrategy : UserStrategyBase {       //construtor       public MyStrategy() : base()       {          AddParameter("Period", ParameterType.Int32, 20, 5, 50, 5);          AddParameter("Std Dev", ParameterType.Double, 2.0, 0.5, 5.0, 0.5);       }        //create indicators and other objects here, this is executed prior to the main trading loop public override void Initialize(BarHistory bars) {          int period = Parameters[0].AsInt;          double stdDev = Parameters[1].AsDouble;          bbL = BBLower.Series(bars.Close, period, stdDev);          bbU = BBUpper.Series(bars.Close, period, stdDev);          PlotIndicatorBands(bbL, bbU, WLColor.Blue, 2, 25);          StartIndex = period; } //execute the strategy rules here, this is executed once for each bar in the backtest history public override void Execute(BarHistory bars, int idx) {          if (!HasOpenPosition(bars, PositionType.Long))          {             //code your buy conditions here             if (                   //touches the lower band                   (bars.Close[idx - 1] > bbL[idx - 1]) && ((bars.Low[idx - 1] < bbL[idx - 1]) || (bars.Low[idx - 2] < bbL[idx - 2]))                   //engulfing:                   && (bars.Close[idx - 2] < bars.Open[idx - 2]) && (bars.Close[idx - 1] > bars.Open[idx - 1]) &&                   (bars.Open[idx - 1] < bars.Close[idx - 2]) && (bars.Close[idx - 1] > bars.Open[idx - 2]) &&                   (bars.Close[idx] > bars.High[idx - 1])                )                PlaceTrade(bars, TransactionType.Buy, OrderType.Market);          } else {             //code your sell conditions here             if (bars.High[idx] > bbU[idx])                PlaceTrade(bars, TransactionType.Sell, OrderType.Market); } }       //declare private variables below       private BBLower bbL;       private BBUpper bbU; } }
