Customizeable Alert Messages
Email alerts always start off with the same title, you have met the criteria...... We know that already. I want to know if something from my list is breaking out or down has met a trigger. EX: Stock XYZ falls to 82, I want the alert to say XYZ falls to 82 or lower limit, this part needs to be short so it fills the header in an email with what you need to know, not what is currently there.... has met the criteria...
Thanks
Mike1 voteThis change is now active in the VectorVest Watchdog.
The alert subject will give the name of the stock and the major action that occurred.

Closing Position and Buying from Search
On BackTest in VectorVest 7, there are 4 built-in choices to choose from in Market Timing List. But I miss the closing position and Buying from search option that we have in VV-usa. I'd like to use this option to get out and get-in in time of my own determiniation. We have better control of handling portfolio with this option.
Thank you.1 vote -

Watchdog Alerts Order
A customer requested that Watchdog Alerts be placed in the order with the most recent at the top and the oldest at the bottom. Currently they are out of order or the most recent is at the bottom. If there could be a feature that allows VV users to put these in order of their choice, it would be greatly appreciated.

Alerts Portfolio and Watchdog
The alerts at the bottom of the screen in VV7, whether for Watchdog or Portfolios, remain in the list and never go away unless each one is individually clicked on. Unless that is done, they remain in the list of alerts forever. Is there any way to have an options that will erase a group of alerts at the same time or automatically ?

Performance Graph - allow drawings on Graph
The Performance graph is the only graph that does not allow you to draw trend lines and all other drawing options. If other options are and issue - then at least allow the extended line. Also regression channels would be a nice option added to the drawing package.

If i understand you correctly, you can accomplish this by unchecking ‘use market timing’ in the second step of the backtest wizard. doing so will give you just one set of automation rules, in which you can choose to buy long or sell short, thereby giving you a test where you’re always long or always short.

How come your MTI index (combining the VVC, RT and BSR) was unchanged today, while all 3 were up?
How come your MTI index (combining the VVC, RT and BSR) was unchanged today, while all 3 were up?
2 votesIt combines the trends of the price of the VVC, BSR & RT into one indicator.
It is not just a straight average of the three.There are times when the MTI can move in the opposite direction of the other three which is known as a divergence.
One of the things that helped us nail the 3/9/09 market bottom was a divergence between the VVC Price and the MTI.See the strategy section of the VV Views on 3/6/09 where we described this phenomenon.
“While looking at the All Daily view of the Market Timing Graph, note the similarity between the 07/23/02 and 10/09/02 pair of low points to the 11/20/08 and 03/06/09 low points. Also note the similarity between Bullish Price/MTI divergence of each of these pairs. If history repeats itself, we will soon have a Bear market rally which will peter out; then the…

Improve color set-up for graphs when choosing white background.
I very much like being able to select a white background for graphs separately from a universal choice. However, when this is done, colors of the selected graph items (RT etc.) are not changed and become invisible or nearly so. Please on making this white background selection, provide a complementary set of veiwable colors for all parameters.
4 votesThe latest version of VectorVest 7 is now available and has much better default colors for graphs when using a white background.
