Have an option to have the "Include dates beyond the end of the backtest" box always checked
Have an option to have the "Include dates beyond the end of the backtest" box always checked.
This would make it a lot easier and faster to step a backtest forward everyday. It gets annoying having to select that box every time.

BackTester Parameter Comparisons
When I work on a succession of backtests, changing one parameter at a time, I soon lose track of what I did, and it's not possible to tell from the current listing of backtests how they vary. I would like to be able to see a chart of the parameters used in each backtest for comparative purposes, as in spreadsheet form, either in the existing display, or a report or spreadsheet export. As it is, one has to be very inventive with the names or keep a spreadsheet on the side, all of which takes a lot of time.

Backtester Report with Running Gain/Loss
I' like to be able to produce a report from a backtest that shows the developing gain or loss over time by day, week, month or year. The Transactions report doesn't suffice, because it doesn't show gain or loss and can't be exported to a spreadsheet. It's also not day, week or month oriented. I would also like to see at least a monthly or annual report of gains and losses in the Summary Report.

Close out position on same day as it reaches stop loss not the next opening
This makes a HUGE difference in overall performance over time. In the real world, we place stop losses so that we are taken out as quickly as possible and would not arbitrarily wait until the next morning before acting.

Make a change to %Gain/(loss) Stop criteria by allowing a stop loss in the loss criteria.
Right now if I enter 50/10 for gain/loss, I could potentially have a 60% drawdown. By allowing to distinguish between a loss from purchase price or a moving stop loss, I could navigate a severe stock correction.

Change backtest to make entries & exits easier
Rather than going through the current awkward system of buying and selling (or selling short & covering) and updating in a backtest, it would be much easier if we could just insert the dates into a grid that would generate the desired test. That would make testing my own timing system much faster and easier.

equity draw down as a stop
To expand on the http://feedback.vectorvest.com/forums/35189-vectorvest-7/suggestions/2558843-the-ability-to-superimpose-a-graph-of-the-vvc-upo idea: give us the ability to use a user-defined parabolic stop on the equity curve in back-testing and portfolio as the basis for discontinuing a current strategy IN ADDITION TO existing stop criteria.

Delete Pending Order in BackTests
If a backtest has a pending order that includes a stock I don't want, I want to be able to remove that stock from the list and have the backtester replace it with the next stock in line.

Export Pending Orders
Please make the "pending orders" list exportable (via copy/paste; print, email etc.). I know I can use the snipping tool, but that's far from convenient. I'd like to get a list of the next days trades that I can take to work to execute the next day or email to my broker for them to execute.

Add search filter to Backtest List in Backtester
Currently we have the ability to group backtests. But when you have a long list of backtests (I currently have over 500), it can take a long time to find one. So a useful feature would be a filter where user can search by 1. name (user types in a word and the filter finds all tests matching) 2. start date , the application will automatically find the bactests grouped by this start date (so user doesn't have to scroll up and down to find the required date) 3. end date (same logic as for start date).
