Installing Chart Templates
This is a very easy process. You will download a zip file that needs to be extracted. The location you want to place these files is going to look something like this (but will be unique to each person).
Installation Folder:
C:\Users\UserName\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\templates\Chart
C:\Users\UserName\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\templates\Chart
To Use Templates:
Once the template files are installed correctly, you can right click on your chart, and go to Templates -> Load -> Select Template
If you do not see the templates there, check to make sure the files are located in the directory mentioned above. If you only see 1 file, you probably did not extract the zip file. You should see a bunch of .xml files that start with XABCDTrading.
