bsr
Add BSR and MTI to Market Timing options so that bottom fishing and other searches that are typically triggered by BSR and or MTI can be automated using RoboTrader (and Portfolio). BSR and MTI were requested in UniSearch for about 10 years and it's obvious that VV does not see the value in doing this even though their users do. Adding BSR and MTI to market timing is perhaps more appropriate.

Use Moving Averages for stop criteria
Customer requested for stop criteria to include the option to use moving averages. Customer specific example was trying to use the 5 EMA crossing below the 13 day EMA as an automated exit strategy.

Graph all button or ability to highlight and graph all. Make it consistent with other lists. Would save time. Buying from the graph should automatically use the RoboTrader set up as well instead of having to go through the selection process.

Problem with "You have exceeded your trading system quota". There should be any number of trading systems allowed as is the case with Portfolios but only a limited number active trading systems, that depends on VectorVests limitations (currently 5). Should just have to turn off one of the other trading systems if the limit is exceeded before turning on the other. This would be more consistent with Portfolios.

Add Crossover Pairs to Trading System Stop Criteria
Add Crossover Pairs to Trading System Stop Criteria, so that a Buy/Sell Stop is hit when, e.g., the 5-day MA or SMA crosses Above/Below the 13-day MA or SMA. This is already included in UniSerch, but would be extremely powerful if added to the Stop Criteria of a Trading System.

Day trading buy and sell hot buttons
RoboTrader has too many buttons for day trading. Have buy and sell hot buttons without having to set stops, etc... Too much time wasted going through the various steps.

SELL RECOMMENDATION does not work. How am I supposed to know that my stocks are sold? The "S" is still indicated after the transaction is already done! I called Questrade and they said that I should use Questrade Edge to confirm the transaction. Why is it that RoboTrader is not programmed to do so? Also, "Recent Alerts" keep on adding up on my cellphone making it hard to tell if they're new alerts or old ones. I need to see only current alerts and not the ones I've already checked and executed.

RoboTrader: Move a Positions from one Trading System to another
Let's say I have two RoboTrader trading systems: 1. Investment 2. Swing Trading
if by mistake I acquire a position under the wrong trading system, I have to manually delete it from one Trading Log and manually add it to the other Trading Log. Would be nice to have in the Trading Log, a buttom MOVE, to move the entry from one system to another. Thanks.4 votes -

Assigning a stock to a trading system (when categorized as UnManaged)
Allow a capability to easily assign a stock to a defined trading system in RoboTrader when for whatever reason that stock is created under "UnManaged". At present you have to do a manual transaction add when a simple right click and "add to" menu option would make this much easier.

Trading Strategy Archive
Given the limit of 5 trading strategies per account, please allow an existing trading strategy to be archived such that the history can be later retrieved/viewed. Even better, if you could re-activate an archived trading strategy that would be even better and would help with the current limit of 5.

Get Alert when a recommendation to sell has expired
In Robotrader we already get alerts to sell (and buy). However, the system does not send an email when a recommendation expires (or no longer meets sale criteria). This has caused me to sell when in reality the stock was no longer in a sell status.
The Ask: Please include an alert with a "sell expiration" similar to the current buy alerts.

RBC Direct Investing and RoboTrader (fully automated RoboTrader)
RBC Direct Investing: Similarly to the request made earlier by a member for TD Canada to be linked to RoboTrader, please also link RBC Direct Investing accounts.
These request however, are not as urgent as MAKING ROBOTRADER WHAT ITS NAME STANDS FOR: automatically trade for us when we are unavailable to monitor to the minute our positions. It needs to be able to buy and sell on our behalf - especially sell. I realize that I will need to sign a serious disclaimer for this feature. This feature should be turned on and off as needed: let's say, just prior…

Increase number of trading strategies to 20
I have multiple (15) strategies active in 7 accounts. I am willing to pay an additional fee to get this capability. RoboTrader does an awesome job of keeping track of my strategies, but the current limitations render it to part time use. I find it useful for both linked and non-linked accounts.

Maximum drawdown
I would like to see the maximum drawdown that my trading system has had somewhere (maybe on the graph under the displayed gain or loss for the system). Then I can compare to the drawdown that I had gotten for the trading system in the backtester. This would be great if done for "My portfolios" also

holdings
After I have added a trading system to robo trader and buy the stocks that it suggest, I see them in a layout. I can choose column headings for this layout. I then can shorten the column headings for the layout. But my choices for this layout should be maintained for the layouts of my other trading systems in robo trader. I should NOT have to bring up another trading system (either head in live trading or paper trading mode) and see the same layout. Please give me a way to save my layout for all trading systems!!!!
