In the backtesting system allow the use of dates and a trading system but without a market timing system.
You can use a specific strategy to buy long January 1st and sell all June 1st without market timing but rather date timing. This would allow you to test 'sell in May' for example and be out of the market for the summer if you wished or possibly go in and out of the market a number of times a year but based on date timing but using whatever strategy you want.

There should be a way to export data from the backtest section of the program without having to print the info.
When accessing the backtest section you can have a list of results from previous backtests. We should be able to export those results to an excel spreadsheet so that we can do further analysis of our results.

Eliminate VST<1 as the stop for the MLP + VST Trading Plan, presented at the Two-Day Retirement Seminar, October, 2015
Ever had a stock drop 28% and the VST goes from 1.01 to 1.03? The whole time you feel like an idiot as you wait for the VST to go below 1.00 to stop you out. Why does the VST go up? It almost seems to me that, in some cases, the VectorVest EPS projection, affecting the 'value' of the stock or the RV, causes RV (percentage-wise) to rise faster than the RT declines, as your stock plummets in price. If anyone would like a case study, or two, or three, exhibiting this phenomenon, by all means feel free to…

Import stock symbols from CSV file into a new portfolio
I use another technical charting tool that allows exporting to a CSV. Based solely on standard technical analysis, it would be nice to be able to bring a CSV file into a new profile and refine the list of potentials using Vector Vest filters

Run autotester like the VectorVest stock challange -- buy Monday open and sell Friday close
Select a unisearch and turn off market timing
Have autotester buy stocks on Monday at open
Have autotester hold those stocks for one week and sell on Friday at close
Then repeat those steps for the time period chosen for the test -- at least a few years.
This is how the VectorVest Stock Challenge works.

Allow custom market timing signals and allow them to interact with backtests/autotester
The power of technical analysis to generate timing signals is not as strong as it could be. Note that DEW is the top contender for the ETF challenge and GLB/RT kicker is just emerging as a strong signal. In the case of the latter, using confirmed down as an exit signal is not as strong as it could be.

Add the RUN Date to all Backtester results. Needed as reruns at later dates can produce different results.
Many, many users have discovered that rerunning backtests at a later date can produce different results -- sometimes radically different. We need to be able to automatically record the date of the run. It is really inconvenient to have to put this in the description field, which is length-limited.

Use the genius to back-test our present portfolios.
This would give us a way to see "what if" we had our present positions and as the price hit our stop criteria we replaced it with a stock from the Uni-search list.

The secret behind the X all comes down to a formula...
Can VV create the formula described below on a VV graph?
(from Money Morning ad) as this looks like something VV should offer their subscribersThe secret behind the X all comes down to a formula...
Here it is.
You take the number of periods for the stock, you subtract the number of periods since that stock hit its highest high – you then divide that by the number of periods again.
And finally, you multiply that answer by 100.That's simply the adjustable window of time the formula uses to determine the strength of both momentum and gravity.
So…
