Not sure if you are stuck with 2Ki or not, but for the newer version of TS, The best way to learn EL is to spend time reading the online tutorials and then get into reading the user guide paying particular attention to the reserved words and functions. Then go into the strategies and indicators that are provided with the paltform and pick the code apart making certain that you know what each of the coding section actually accomplishes. Then if you get stuck on something you can ask me 🙂
It has been a while since I programmed in the TS2Ki, but I still own a copy and can try to help with coding issues. I am a TradeStation EL Specialist and also a TS Registered Developer.

In the TradeStation forum you will find a link to a series of tutorials and also an online user guide. These will help get you started in the right direction. Then if you follow the other directions that I listed you will become proficient in short order. I have read that book that you mention in the past. If you are not familiar with programming, then I would suggest a decent programming concepts book. One that I like is an old C++ book by Gary Bronson entitled A First Book of C++, From Here To There. Although it is written for C++, it contains all the various programming concepts that you will use again and again. In all reality there are only about three structures that you will use to write 90% of all you strategies. Once you learn the concepts of programming then this will apply to about any programming language there is. Only the syntax changes. If you try to figure something out and are having issues with figuring out some coding concept or get stuck in a programming issue with EL then feel free to post here and I can fix it.
Why not order one of the tradestation books/dvds directly from them ? Here is the link:https://www.tradestation.com/support/books/default.aspx

There is also a WIKI which is part of the TSW forums. You can get a lot of things from there. You can also ask questions within the TSW forums for any issues, but if you ask any EL questions or platform questions or strategy development and testing questions here I will answer them also. I will be spending much more of my future time here than there.
