OK, I'm at a loss on this one and am hoping someone has encountered the same problem. I cannot verify any new strategies on Tradestation. When I am done with a particular strategy and click 'verify', nothing happens. No syntax errors, no notifications, nothing. Obviously I cannot test any non-verified strategies, so I'm at a standstill.

Anyone experience this, or is it just an ID10T error?

thanks

The new development enviornment definitely needs a bit more work.

For me I can't even open the enviornment without first going to right click on a chart and then formate analysis technique and then open an existing, already compiled study and after that I can open, write, save as and compile as needed.

If there are errors in the code your must have the output window open to see the line number of the errors that might be causing the compile to fail.

If all the promises of TS 9.0 are fulfilled this TS will change from "an also ran" to king of the retail platforms.

If support can't help you and you would like me to walk you through a compile, I am usually up on Skype.

Good Luck

Any word if there will be a better way to demo TS 9?
Of course there is the base clients, but for someone like me who didn't get started until all the "tradestation killers" started rolling out with simple almost full working demo versions with min commitment..the idea of parking a min account to demo software just seems absurd.
I'm all ears on TS 9...having started later though from when it was undisputed king its always felt so closed off.

We are in the process of installing the TS 9.0 Beta on several of our machines for testing.

The promises of TS 9.0 are very grand indeed and if it lives up to them it will be a game changer for retail packages. The only bad news is that it will be sometime longer before we see improvement with the time stamp issue for charts.

The rest of it, objects, smart order objects, classes, access to different data streams all sounds really great and I will report on how we find these new improvements.

cheers

Can you point to any links of what these promises are? I don't even know what TS data time stamp resolution is.
It does amuse me as a jaded Ninja user that TS 9 sounds like it will be out just in time to send them back to the drawing board with this insanely delayed Ninja 7 release.

From what I hear N7 is a bust in many, many ways as it relates to its promises.

You can do a search but here is a link to a press relase about their new backtesting facility and if you look around I have posted more on this update.

turns out I am a complete moron. The output window on the development platform was closed.. hence all my issues.

thanks everyone
