Holy Grail Compilation Error

Hello Traders,

I have an issue that I would like a solution for that I can't seem to get to the bottom of on my own. I found Sharky's classroom and have been an avid pupil since. I am attempting to compile a strategy based on the Double MA Paint Holy Grail V2 suggested by Sharky. I understand that he isn't a proponent of automated trading, but none the less I would like to see if I can incorporate this tactic into my strategy. My problem arises when I attempt to compile a strategy while referencing the Double MA Paint Holy Grail V2. Anytime I incorporate the Double MA Paint Holy Grail V2 I receive the "error on generating strategy" error from the compiler. I am using the built in strategy builder to attempt this, as I am not too comfortable with C# yet. I will take any suggestions you have on manually editing the code, I'm just not disciplined enough to build it from scratch. You can see attached a screen shot of the debugger and what it says is wrong. I would just like to be able to compile a strategy that references this indicator. Thank you to anybody who spends their valuable time on this problem with me.

Code from Compiler:

Ninja's strategy builder is broken with deeply nested enumerations.

Replace:
NinjaTrader.Indicator.DoubleMA_internal_SharkyPkg+ DMAType.WMA

With:
NinjaTrader.Indicator.DoubleMA_internal_SharkyPkg.DMAType.WMA

FluxSmith,

Good Karma is coming your way!
It worked, and I've learned something new about NT and C#.
Your expertise is much appreciated.
Thanks !
