  2. remember the column widths that I've made narrower (or wider). Today they're not even remembered during a sessions - ie if a do a search, make the columns narrower (because there width is for the column heading and not the data) to see more columns, then click search again, the column widths that I've set are not remembered and I have to make them narrower again.

    To remember the column widths with the search would be idea - then I would have to set column widths only once.

  3. I use ATR to signal buy/sell. Right now it can only be used as a unit value. Making it available as a % of moving average price would make it easier to see a move in price volatility. Also make it available as a search criteria in Unisearch and in Custom field builder
    Make price moving average available in Custom Field as well as you do in Charts

  5. The Green Light Buyer with RT kicker looks great for getting into the market. But the Confirmed Down always seems to give back more money than I'd like. How about doing the inverse of the GLB/RT to get out of the market? I'd love to be able to test a timing mechanism like a Red Light Seller with an RT kicker in the backtester.

  7. Drawing lines that allow to see percent rate of change on a graph. so if you draw a line on a graph to connect two points it would tell you the percent tate of change.

  9. Have the option to save backtest/unisearch parameters to file, and also the ability to restore them from this file in the future, without retyping everything from scratch.

    This will help to keep the number of current backtests to a minimum and not lose the parametrs/ideas in them.

    This will improve the performance of Vectorvest by minimising the data that needs to be sent between the clint and the server.

  10. Provide a watchlist with the top 5 stocks from the top 5 sectors in one view. Users could quickly build a diversified selection from such a list. As it is now, many times the top VST stocks are all in the same sector or industry. It seems prudent to divide investments among various sectors by top VST in each sector and to avoid having multiple holdings in the same sector.

  11. The current method of using the last Quarter divdend X4 as the dividend is full of inaccuracies. This is particularly so when the last quearter dividend is unusually high (or low) for some special reason.

  13. Have the "Amount of Data to Include" choices under "Support Resistance Settings" pop-up window reflect the longer time frame buttons in the lower RH corner of the Graphs Tab. Specifically, include 63 bars instead of 40 to reflect a 3 month lookback, 125 bars instead of 100 to reflect 6 months, 250 bars instead of 300 to reflect 1 yr, 1250 bars instead of 1000 to reflect 5 yrs, and 2500 bars instead of 1500 and 2000 to reflect a 10 yr lookback. Also, add a 2 yr button to the preselected time frames.

  15. You teach that is a bad idea to buy an individual stock when the markets are going down. I believe this is a good idea, but I do not see how to do this in any of the many available Unisearch searches. This lacking criteria will now allow a sold stock (due to sell criteria settings) to be replaced on a down market day. This can hurt total results if it followed by more down market days. This can be implemented if a VVC choice were settable in the Parameter field box. One could then set the price change as…

  16. Offer a 4th plan of payment for the Derby which includes choosing how many days per month one would like to use and pay for the Derby option. The person would commit to a certain number of days during each month that he or she would partake in the Derby. This would allow people to participate if they had some week days off during the month. The cost of the plan should be prorated based on the number of days one participates. Of course, one would maintain the real time plan as well. I would happily participate in 8 days…

  19. I find VV a powerful platform in terms of allowing the mix of fundamentals and technicals for creating a search or a backtest.
    Unfortunately, the lack of a 'scripting language' to create more complex backtests is not available. This allows only the backtest of very basic strategies since you lack more powerful programming statements like if..then..else, switch... case.. etc. Some indicators in Protrader allow for only a selection from a list which is an unnecessary limitation.

    I would like to have a 'scripting language' capability maybe even in a well known language like C# for example. I believe this would…

  20. In this day and age I find absurd that we have Yahoo user group to exchange ideas for the VV platform. This creates a lot of limitations: no support for pictures or graphics (which is key for a trading forum), difficult sorting of messages, emails on topics that I'm not interested, lack of attachments capabilities, etc,

    Yahoo user groups are inadequate, antiquate an inefficient for a trading discussion platform. Maybe 20 years ago, it would suffice, today we have many Online Forum Platforms, some free that would enable a much better exchange of ideas. Also, these online forum platforms, are…
