I have an unexpected error message and I do not how to proceed further
I followed the instructions about using Visual Studio (http://www2.wealth-lab.com/WL5Wiki/kbAskGlitchDebug.ashx) and I am running into the following build error message -

When following the link http://www2.wealth-lab.com/WL5Wiki/kbAskGlitchDebug.ashx it says to add as a reference ◦Select Wealth-Lab.dll and click OK. The closest I could find was WealthLab.dll with no hypen in the name so I added that as the reference. The critical lines being highlighted are -

Compiler Error CS0246 is expected when a reference to WealthLab.dll is missing. It will be gone after adding a reference to the core library and recompiling.

I'd rather thought your TrendLineFinderV1 class should be public, but it's OK to be private.

And just to be on the safe side, make sure your solution targets .NET 4.0 (4.5 is chosen by default).

P.S. Thanks for spotting "Wealth-Lab.dll" in the Wiki article (fixed).

TASC 2012-01 | Reversing MACD (Dough)

See the difference? You have to include a using directive to the TASCIndicators library which contains RevEngMACDSignal.

That's because these indicators reside in another indicator library (Community.Indicators). If it's not installed in WLP, install it from the Extensions section and restart WLP. Otherwise just look up their code examples here in the Wiki for the proper syntax of the using directive and you're good to go.

Of course you do because you haven't followed my post #8 to the end, just taking its step one. Now it's time to carefully revisit it and post #5 too: the same procedure applies now for C.Indicators (which is the "home" for your new indicators). Keep this in mind every time you wish to use any indicator from an extension library.
