  1. Add Midas Touch as a timing tool to Auto Tester please. The existing timing tools do not work so well on the more volatile, resource-oriented Canadian market. I suspect that the Midas Touch Timer may work better.

  2. This allows for profit targets rather than only trailing stops. The % gain/loss allows for conditional stops either a stop-loss or % gain objective. A ">" sign for VST and RT would allow for a upside target such as RT > 1.45. Conditional stops, like % gain and loss, would allow as an example a VST < .7 or VST > 1.5. One could even make it conditional on two separate indicators such as 10% Trailing Stop or RT > 1.6.

  3. Preferred shares can offer excellent returns such as TransCanada Pipelines 5.60% Series U Preferred Shares (TCA.PR.X) This is a straight perpetual, running yield 5.46 percent which is well above the 4-4.25 percent yield on 30-year TRP bonds, and the 3.8 percent yield on the common. TCA.PR.X is callable next October at 50.00, gives a yield to call of 3.92 percent - which is well above the 1.4 percent on GICs and 1.5 percent on 1-year TRP bonds.

  6. Include CALMAR ratio as a column in list of backtest results; risk adjusted performance is a critical decision criterion which distinguishes VV from other backtesters.

  12. I would like to suggest a strategy which finds assending triangles. This would be a very succesful long strategy. When candlesticks break thru the trend line they tend to run for a period of time.

  13. Add the capability to show the following:
    when less than 20% of stocks in the VVC are trading above their 200-day MAV,
    less than 10% are trading above their 50-day MAV, and
    less than 10% are trading above their 20-day MAV.

    When that occurs, it is a sign that the market is deeply oversold and will rally strongly.

  14. Add the capability to double click on the price MA to select a moving avg period i.e. 50, 200 etc instead of having to use the scroll arrows that move the look back period on day at a time.

  16. The Backtester already has the ability to "maintain <n> positions."

    I am suggesting that the test may also be configured to maintain some (one) measure at the time of making a purchase decision.

    Example: "Try to maintain RV > 1.00"

    Sometimes, it is correct to buy-in to a stock with RV < 1. But, the prudent investor needs to avoid collecting too many RV<1. The portfolio should be evaluated as a whole (I know the concept of viewing the average of the portfolio can be found in presentations).

    The same could be said for RT. If current positions have suddenly…

  18. 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

  20. Add Simple moving averages such as the 10 and 20 day simple MA's in the "Value" Column in the unisearch tab. I have found that stock that are above there 10 and 20 day simple moving average move to the upside faster, then those that are under both the 10 and 20 Day Simple MA's, when it comes to "primary wave" going green or "green light buyer" going green.

    When it comes to a green light appearing on the green light buyer and when Primary way shows us a green light, the Stock in the Searchs such as "bottoms up"…
