I'm just starting to write some c# strategies. I lifted this code directly from the sample in the quickref but it is giving me an error. It does not like SROC. Error message: "Compiled at 11/19/2024 12:52:33
26: The type or namespace name 'SROC' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
16: The type or namespace name 'SROC' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"

What am i doing wrong?

CODE:
using WealthLab.Backtest; using System; using WealthLab.Core; using WealthLab.Data; using WealthLab.Indicators; using System.Collections.Generic;    namespace WealthLab    {       public class MyStrategy2 : UserStrategyBase       {          //create indicators and other objects here, this is executed prior to the main trading loop          public override void Initialize(BarHistory bars)          {             indicator = new SROC(bars.Open, 4);             PlotIndicator(indicator);          }          //execute the strategy rules here, this is executed once for each bar in the backtest history          public override void Execute(BarHistory bars, int idx)          {          }          //declare private variables below          private SROC indicator;       }    }

The SROC() indicator is part of the finantic.Indicator extension. To make it work you need
1. this extension installed
2. write a "using finantic.Indicators" at the beginning of your code.

TIP:
To get started with C# coding it is a good idea to let WL produce some C# code for you to learn all the details.
In this case: Open a Chart, drag the SROC indicator on the Chart and go:
right-mouse-click->Push dropped indicators to new C# coded strategy window

This will open some working C# code....

I tended to think I am the "oldest veteran" here.
Just found out that this is not true.

Haha, after the move to fidelity I dropped out and wandered in the land of TradeStation, amibroker and python. I like this platform and am slowly moving my production strats to it. Great community here too!
